Glad you like them

MassimoV: my bot is a bit too spherical, so i'm not sure what side you mean

. There are many tornado spikes attached to the shield and three DSL Hammers 2 attached in between. I posted the info below the images

That's what they are, tornado spikes. I knew I wouldn't have been clear enough.

Alternative, you could make it trinity for extra weirdness and death.

You were saying?

How about instead of trinity make it fithity...fithty... fith...whatever? Lol

I had no decent angle for the interior so lets forget it shall we?

Unfortunately this one is not effective at all in battle. The other is difficult but eventually able to control. This one is a nightmare!
Pretty to see moving but impossible to control.
A hit with this guy is pure luck. I almost lost against a flipper bot.
I tried every kind of controls and rotations between engines. i could only achieve best speed performance but never control improvements, too many motors to take in account.
Spikes on the shield only worsen it's performance

I posted this bot JUST because it's pretty and interesting in my opinion

nothing more.

P.S: Damnit!! i'm always forgetting to remove the cursor from the pics

oh my god

your bots are so freakin' amazing

also can you build anything without the use of an antiballast? :P

So far i only built one successful bot without the antiballast. I'll post it tomorrow.

Edit: I mean tomorrow which is in fact today because it's already 2 am here, lol

I don't know why but I love your bots man. keep it up.

A sphere!?! Wow, that is something.

As promised a bot without anti ballast:

These chassis were made for another bot, but since that idea failed i decided to build something else. I then realized the weight i could spare with all that empty space. This bot came out to be too good so left it like this. It proven to destroy pretty much all AI bots out there, except spinning and plow bots.

>It's fast and very maneuverable
>strong weapons, capable of pinning down flat bots between the drums and the skirts
>invulnerable to flips. It has different controls for up right and upside down positions to avoid confusion.

>Main down side: the spikes don't last long

Edit: The spikes are now all Tornado's. Previously i had 2 PC625 batteries. When i got the info about the amps i replaced to ants and forgot to change the other weaker spikes. Just mentioning so you won't point that out

less empty space ples, less empty space = less chassis weight, and you'd be able to get more weaponry than you can already get

edit: oh and polycarb extenders won't last long on a hw when fully exposed

One more heavy weight, this time gone as planned.

Average bot during combat. Needs a bit of practice to control. Only the top shield spins.
At first just the top shield spins but if the bot destabilizes (opponent bot hits for example) or it turns upside down, both halve start spinning. In other terms it becomes more powerful at it's vulnerable state. Upside down, the spin is violent enough to make the bot mobile.
In this bot i made the chassis bigger than needed on purpose, it stabilizes it better when it spins.

>Great armor and weapons, hard to reach main chassis.

>Confusing controls when the top shield is activated. (bottom shield also spins a bit)
>If cornered, you pretty much lost.

Yes i already mentioned that below pics. But the bot just was too effective and i let it be like this. I'll maybe do a flatter version of it.

flail hammers are kinda 2 opposites, you're better off with razors on hexplates or similar...

Hi, people
It's been a while... A Huuuuuge while. I've been very busy with studies and university and stuff and my activity here will be very low. I come here when i have enough time and some ideas too. Today i had both.

So i created this "little" fellow here:

Careful, because the actual front of the bot is the 2nd picture where sits 4 flippers, enabling it to throw in the air heavy weight bots like they were feathers.
This monster uses its super flipper to throw bots into the rolling pins. It can also effectively do it by simply charging from behind. If any adversary bot successfully gets under this, the lower rolling pins will still damage it.

>Superb performance in battle.
>Astounding killing power. Able to immobilize other bots with the flipper or crush them with 4 rolling pins.
>If it successfully drags a bot into that death trap there is no possible come back (except for spinning bots)
>Very fast and maneuverable but very wide

>Hard to flip over but if flipped, it rarely succeeds to upright
>Not enough batteries. Even though it has 16 batteries, 5 of them ants, whenever the flippers are activated a lot of power is drained from driving and the rolling pins. Power discharges fast.

Where do i get AI bots of the other heavy weights? in Dsl2 there's only the heavy weight

I already installed that. Not only i didn't find any super or ultra heavy weights but some AI bots crashed the game when loading them into a battle

Even the adversary bot shown in the last pic is from that download.

Hey, my favorite newbie is back! And with another epic bot too!
