Gadgets
submitted by card
- Giant Sawblade
- Spend 7: If you damage your opponent through ramming this round, you may have their ramming for next round reduced by 15.
- Cheap Chassies
- Curse -- When the bidder win this, their opponent gets it. Each round your Swerving is reduced by the amount of damage you have taken this game. (defense goes no lower than 0).
- Flipper
- If your ramming is entirely blocked by your opponent, they become flipped and must spend 15 electricity to self-right. Flipped bots can't activate powers or ram until they self-right.
submitted by Jumble
- One Stick Of Dynamite
- Use once per game: Attack for 24.
- UPS
- If you would lose more than half of your Electricity from ramming, only lose half of your Electricity. Does not work if you start a round with 20 or less Electricity.
- Short Circuit (flaw)
- Other Powers you have are inactive on even numbered rounds.

Playing without a moderator was achieved by using an md5 hash on orders and then revealing and checking them once the other person submitted.
A two player version of Rumble either needs some extra rules or is not viable. It seems too easy to get ahead when the person with more Energy does not have to worry about an opponent swiping against them if they go all in on someone. Card (talk) 19:51, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
