What happens when you expose a normal Manta to radiation? You get Gamma Raze...

Great skin and design though.

Re-did Total Panic, redesigned the chassis to end up with ALPHA MALE:

These are looking as boss as ever.

Woah, that skin looks sweet.

A major reworking of Carbon Copy, which last fought in Battlebots (can't remember which seasons). All extender work has been replaced, not fantastic by any means but done to add armour to the sides, which is something I felt was lacking. Weapon now has 8 small Typhoon teeth instead of the Hypno teeth, and is angled and slightly raised in order to get at bots better. No wedges are present, if IRL rules allowed I'd absolutely fit one. Can barely run inverted, which is what the Lightning spike on the disc is for. I couldn't find anything more suitable that gave me the height needed that also looked the part.

Final interesting point, I missed the deadline for the Rumble in 'RNP: The 2nd Chance' by a few hours, otherwise I would have sent CC2016 to Rob without hesitation.

'Upgraded' the lance to a Samurai Sword, the motor and added a Lightning spike, all to aid self-righting, which was SLaF's weakness IMO. The weapon has been 'upgraded' to a disc with 4 smaller Typhoon teeth, replacing the DSL beater bar. Drive motors have been downgraded to normal NPCs in the pursuit of better control.

First real attempts to do anything in DSL 2.2 involve older bots. Sir Lance-a-Frog was the only real successful robot I've had, and I'm not yet confident enough to remake a SHW version of Carbon Copy yet. Seems like there'll be less opportunity to enter them in tournaments too.

That said, there's enough going on here to have made me want to come back. So hopefully I can stay around for a while.

dsc you know I'm a fanboy of your work :P

Sir Lance a Frog made a return! that's awesome. carbon copy looks great too if not a bit stanard but everyone has that when they start a new mod of the game.

also there is no question that you will stay.

I'm sorry about you missing the deadline, hah. There's always another opportunity for... Glory... in the future

Love the upgraded Frog, and with Frog in the semi-finals of another certain tournament, I'd say that it's done fine in its career

Jakewilliamson · « **Reply #432 on:** September 04, 2016, 12:27:47 PM »

They both look amazing, Lance-a-frog has always been my favorite out of all the bots you did DSC!

MassimoV · « **Reply #433 on:** September 04, 2016, 02:23:23 PM »

Damn, you still got it.

The deadline thing was my fault. I'd seen you mention to someone else that the signups were closed, and the production done for the video, so I guessed there was no point in asking the same question.

But is Frog fighting in another tournament? Did someone else submit him?

It's in Robot MPire, I would believe.

Also don't know if you were around for it when it actually got going, but he was also part of this.

dragonsteincole · « **Reply #437 on:** September 05, 2016, 09:18:30 AM »

Blimey, didn't realise both had still been running. Guess I have a lot of videos to catch up on. :)

HW version of Sir Lance-a-Frog, it has ascended and taken the throne. Weapon motor is the 6-MAG motor, so the 4 large Typhoon teeth pack quite a punch. With the addition of the lance and Shield, KLAF is also invertible, which fixes a few issues with SLAF.

Bonus info: King was made from the chassis of Hellfrog, which fought in the first Battlebots tournament. I'm hoping this bot is more successful if it ever fights.

Final question: are skirts still considered against the spirit of IRL rules?
