LOL I just gave Doomkiller a physics lesson over IM about how its just as good

with acceleration (which is what matters with general size arenas) smaller wheels have less surface area to travel so they move faster then larger wheels.

so it would bee a weight reduction regardless...

if he wants more speed add hypnos on,
if he wants roughly the same speed (maybe a tad slower) but better HP for the motors use the normal/ hypno combo,

Size of wheels has no relevant to how fast you travel in this game, because you move forward by magical forces, not wheel spinning.  All the game cares about is the grip value.

And NPC Fast is roughly 33% faster.  And NPC Normal Left/Right only has 400 HP.  In short, avoid NPC Normal except the first one (with 12000 HP).

If on NAR AI, then since NPC Fast got 2000 HP you don't want NPC Normal.  I never got to rationale as to why the best motor in the game needed a buff and the not so good one needed a nerf......  But hey, I thought everyone uses NPC fast at 400 HP speaks for itself.

well, time to actually do what this forum is about. Build weird looking robots on a crappy game

Anyway here is an old attempt at an UHW. Out with the old and in with the...old?

That AWESOME THING (for lack of a better name):

10 mm steel I believe. Dual perm powering the main FS

I will showcase some other robots soon. Once I build them XD

I am guessing you got bored of efficient building after a while and started to put out random components on the bot to try to get to the weight limit ?

You can use up the rest of the weight with another Dual Perm FS. Gets rid of the unwedginess due to torque.

More "going to TAKE FOREVER" than "a bit hard", but yes.

Time for an update, on an old bot:

Shadow Ninja. Originality has gone for there is no more trapper sheets. Now there are trapper skies:

Great wedges (allthough haven't tested it in NARAI yet) and no, the skies don't get in the way of the weapons. 1 mm Titanium

Looks very impressive. Is 1mm Tite enough on a MW?
 
Also, what I think you should do with the UHW is mount the Face Spinner assembly on a servo or something, so that it can be clamped down onto the top of the opponent. =D

Upgrade those poly extenders with the free weight?
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

Not really, but this bot is made to kill quickly or impressively, or get killed quickly XD

Lol. everytime I go to post a new bot my showcase is hidden deep in the pages..

Anyway, I though up of a crazy concept. You see all those bots with the slow drive and hefty hammers, why not make a similar bot, but with a heap of razors instead, Hence, I bring forth, Defiler:



1 mm Tite, with a halfsheet on the bottom. Anonys the heck out of popups, so Im happy XD

And heres a stock inspired VS with no name:


Mightve been ok if it wasnt for the epic agod :(

You can still shrink your rammer's chassis so you can replace your flipper segments with a razor. :D
