Strategy

Main article: Community Rottenburg strategy

• All robots can easily be knocked into the pit in the town, destroying them instantly. If they are carrying the bomb, it will be reset and sent back to the robots' spawn.
• The first and second Giant Soldiers in the first wave do not spawn with Medics pocketing them, so it is safe to attack them directly.
• All giants in the second wave are pocketed by Über Medics. Coordinate with your team's Medic killer (such as a Demoman, Sniper, or Gas Passer Pyro) to take them out as quickly as possible.
• A Tank will spawn on the third wave. Consider having a Pyro, Scout, or Soldier take it out before the Giant Soldier comes.
• Sir Nukesalot will always spawn last on Wave 6. An easy way to defeat it is to airblast it into the pit (but remember to communicate this strategy to your team before doing it). Since its Loose Cannon shots are somewhat inaccurate, this boss should be simpler to pit than, for example, a Giant Heavy.
• Fall damage scales with a robot's health, so launching Sir Nukesalot into the air with Knockback Rage or an upgraded airblast can deal devastating damage for relatively little effort. This may make it harder for the rest of your team to deal damage, however, so let your teammates know before you attempt this.
• A common way to beat the last wave is to have the whole team go Pyro with maxed damage, ammo capacity, some resistances, and a few Crit canteens or the Phlogistinator, since flamethrowers deal substantial damage against tanks. When Crit boosts (such as a Kritzkrieg or a canteen) are more readily available, other weapons:
  • A fully-upgraded Beggar's Bazooka, when Crit boosted, is one of the best damage dealers against tanks. The high ammo consumption of the Bazooka, along with the fact that it can deal self-damage, may be an issue.
  • A fully-upgraded, Crit-boosted Shortstop is a viable alternative if ammo consumption and the self-damage are an issue. Keep in mind that you may not be able to focus on collecting money, leaving you are much more fragile than usual.
