Of course is destructive. It is a shell spinner with flails and razors. Nothing new there :/
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

WreckTangle isn't a good destructiveness test because it can't fight back or anything. Try that against a bot of a similar class, like Grog, or a bot that would be good against that design, like UnDeadBeat.


It doesn't look like a bad bot at all, just kinda bland. I don't think it would do that badly in actual combat.
Avoid the beam and you won't get hit!

Ok. I know it's bland, but that's because It's the most effective. I could always have Mad Cow Disease, or redeign Osprey....

Does this whoop Nitrite's ass?

For anyone wondering, the armour is Titanium 3, and it has the same amount of spikes as Nitrite.

You should angle the weapons to make a V shape. Does more damage that way.

Not really. It actually reduces damage. However, it's really good at stopping most horizontal motors.

A single tank wold do just fine, so you can spend the weight on more weapons and a wedge or two. :D

K. I'll change it when i get home. Maybe add 2 more razors, or add a wedge, but...

Wedges which are upside down =  :fail:

Here's the new Capacity Breaker.



All same apart from bit of the chassis cut off, only 1 large air tank, skirt hinge wedge and typhoon spikes to protect the steel extenders.

i don't know if this will help but extender off center = bad (in my case), AND i like bots to be balanced to decrease the chance of being flipped at a particular side. i personally would try and put in another piston to balance it out, but i'm not you so i don't know what you look for in a good bot. plus could we see the insides?
I... I think I've quit. Lurking and posting where I feel it's needed from time to time. I was never particularly good, but I tried. Never really succeeding, but trying all the same.
This is what I spend my time on now

Why have you got steel extenders? Just use Aluminium or Polycarbonate.

Don't need balancing.



Followed G.K's advice (ONLY GOT A FEW ALU'S THOUGH), and with the spare weight, i changed the Thphoons to Small DSL's and added a much bigger skirt (angled 120 instead of 80)

And yes, there are 3 ants. Do you think I should add a battlepack?

I still see steel extenders. And if you're going to add more batteries, just add one more ant.
