Also, halfsheets and 20kg ramplates also suck due to balancing issues.

I heard that the long ramplates weren't good, but the halfsheets suck too?

Quite nice for your first SHW. And sweet UI as well (where did you get it?). :D

It's in Mr. Apocalypse's Chaos mod. I happen to have it myself.

:O Candy I didnt make ? :P looks cool, just you guys wait for my DSL 2 themes pack

as for the bot, looks cool

I think there is a better choice to long multi extenders but cant think right now without breaking the rule of 7

possibly downgrade the front wedges a bit to get weight for better amour

the armour isnt 1 mm aluminum its the next one up 3mm i think.
also on the actual bot itself theres metal sheets on the back but i took them off so people could see the insides.

My REAL Clash Cubes 3 entry this time.
Prejudice Box Junior
2 ant batts.
Strengths : strong weaponry/if toppled weapon can help it self right.
Weaknesses : Exposed wheel/sometimes rattles a little and causes the wedge to lift off the ground a tiny bit.

Halfsheets and multi extenders are a bad extender choice if they are not directly attached to the baseplate. (If they are they're awesome though)

ashman12 · « **Reply #91 on:** December 18, 2009, 09:13:10 PM »

yea i know because they have low hitpoints and fall off easily.
i couldnt use anything else for the wedges because DSL bars would put it into a heavy even without the plow and the sheet wedges would mean that i couldnt even have the 1 wheel protected.

Any other comments.

Pwnator · « **Reply #92 on:** December 19, 2009, 01:43:22 AM »

Small wedges don't do much when they're static. Use metal sheets and attach them to a metal hinge/skirt hinge. Much lighter and wedgier. Then replace the plow with shell panels so you can cover both sides. And finally, clean up your extender work and stick to flipper segments (4x the HP of a 20cm aluminum extender for the same weight). :D

ashman12 · « **Reply #93 on:** December 19, 2009, 07:27:15 AM »

heres an updated version.

this is the version i am going to send to joe for CC3.

BTW the weight was before i upgraded the armour and now its 396.6 i think.

Pwnator · « **Reply #94 on:** December 19, 2009, 07:40:36 AM »

Again, don't use multi-extenders when they're not on the baseplate. Use flipper segments instead. And your wedge is too heavy. Use a skirt hinge and attach metal sheets to it and spend the extra weight on more weapons.

ashman12 · « **Reply #95 on:** December 19, 2009, 07:43:55 AM »

ill update it later but ive already sent it to joe.

Naryar · « **Reply #96 on:** December 19, 2009, 07:58:56 AM »

Your extender work could still be better and 4 irons on a MW VS = clearly not enough.

And your wedge is too heavy.

Doesn't putting more weight on the wedge makes it better ?

But i am not sure about the Ti sheet wedge being a good idea. In any case you must put in on a metal hinge, and maybe add front stabilizers as well.

ashman12 · « **Reply #97 on:** December 19, 2009, 08:06:18 AM »

i tried the metal hinge and whenever i used it it would buckle down and the disc would hit off the ground and send me flying.
i havent tried a skirt hinge on this version but on the old version i couldnt place it.
ill try the skirt hinge later.

I ran in this issue as well. That's why i suggested front stabilizers (they must be static).

ashman12 · « **Reply #99 on:** December 19, 2009, 09:19:43 AM »

updated version.

i have a feeling i have forgot to change something though.
