Well if he has DSL then he's been here. It looks like he was lurking a bit too.

I must say for a AI pack that never touched this forum before being released this is an OK pack. Some of the bots are completely unrealistic and some just push the limits of cheat parts, with that being sad however, this pack is to me like wild robots (Whams Tournament), the thing is, is that there are alot of designs that have what I call K.I.A or Kick Ass Innocence. The robots have this one thing about them that makes me want to use them all day because they all have great designs (but will not fair out well with dsl). They are cool and are just fun and makes me want to say "sh**, finally a lightweight drill bot that pwn3s!" Overall I give this a 8.5 out of 10. It looks like Backlash has some stiff competition.

The first one is mine, and yes. I did take a gander at SCRAMJET and turned it into a Heavyweight. That is one of the two bots that I have been inspired to make (Well, I admit that SCRAMJET was a simple rebuild compared to the second inspiration). Haptic and Haptic Heavy were inspired by Enfiliad's design in BBEANS.

This AI pack is for a local tournament and these were just the bots that I have built/rebuilt for it. Some of them have weaknesses (Backlash) and some are just beastly (like BARoque, and that is my newest design). Some were built for a past tournament, but it never took off due to the lack of time in my part.

Yeah, I've been roaming/lurking around. I can't wait for DSL 3 to come out so that I may make a tournament for it, and it will be much more realistic lol. Though still, it probably won't be GTM based.

Edit

About Backlash being in there, notice the very large amount of cheating in the armor section :P. I have studied the effects of component armor versus regular armor, and recently I checked the "Mythbusters" armor topic to find that my studies are pretty much true. I added the super heavy option to let people study this same effect. This will help people learn that heavy chassis armor isn't the best option, even for a super small chassis.

I also would like to thank the community, and though I haven't done much for it, I have learned and studied a lot from here. I must say that this community has a lot that can be learned by both the tutorials and the people around here. I haven't checked out so much other than the RA2 sections, I have to say that this community is well built for it's main purpose. I can't think of ways to really give back, but I will say that I must thank the community and I hope to become more of a part of it.

For now, I'm going to work on my DSL "realistic" skills and try to bring this to DSL 3. Expect me to be a part of the AI tournaments then. Take care.
