Looking pretty good. Seems this Randomiser was a good idea. =D Does it get stuck on its front very often?

atleast you didnt get 1wd poker

looks like it does a nice bit of damage but idk how easily it would deal with popups

~~You shouldn't be putting it there then...~~
Yeah, it does a load of damage and seems to outweapon quite a few bots in NAR AI.

Yeah the Randomiser was a good idea. Gonna use it to build some more DSL bots now.
Just ran a few matches (lawl you butthurt Badnik? :P) and it didn't get stuck on its front. Fully invertible too. :D

Yeah it does do a nice bit of damage. I'll test it against some popups.

Ook so Neutron destroyed it, but I managed to take a BSG off... :P
LW VERSION? LW VERSION:

Tite 1, NPC normals, medium CO2 tank. I was thinking about switching to mag drive but I'm not sure.

Looks decent, how does it do in combat?

Tweedy · « **Reply #286 on:** August 25, 2012, 09:21:24 AM »

Does the fact that it doesn't have a wedge hurt it's combat ability ?

Does well in combat but you need to pause it as the piston axle disappears. Needs a rebuild methinks.

Yes and no. I'm guessing it'd be better against popups with a wedge (I tried adding one but AGOD D:) but without one it does a good job at deweaponing them.

looks good, would light beater bars and lds teeth be a better option?

Gazea2 · « **Reply #289 on:** August 25, 2012, 05:51:24 PM »

I think so damage-wise but I'm not too sure the light beaters would do much after the teeth fall off. :/
HW VERSION? HW VERSION INDEEDY

Uhh tite 1, one large CO2 tank, two pistons IIRC. I was thinking about changing the other disks to light beaters and lds teeth but I'm not too sure.
Also, 3 bawhts in one day. In DSL. From Gaz. Man, I must be ill.

Tweedy · « **Reply #290 on:** August 25, 2012, 05:54:39 PM »

Would angling the outer discs inwards slightly increase it's ability to trap other bots ?

Gazea2 · « **Reply #291 on:** August 25, 2012, 05:56:32 PM »

Probably, I'd have to test to make sure. I forgot to mention that it has two halfsheets too.

EDIT: I ALSO MISSED A RAZOR DESPITE HAVING 10 KGS LEFT. Grr...

ty4er · « **Reply #292 on:** August 26, 2012, 07:27:54 AM »

looks cool, could do with some top protection though

Gazea2 · « **Reply #293 on:** August 26, 2012, 08:26:51 AM »

Changes:
Switched to one halfsheet as I shrunk the chassis and one covered the whole of it.
Switched to one storm burst
Added more weapons
Added top protection
Angled the disks less because ty

Tite 1, 2 ants, one large CO2 tank. :D

martymidget · « **Reply #294 on:** August 26, 2012, 08:33:00 AM »

It's certainly an improvement. :P

Badnik96 · « **Reply #295 on:** August 26, 2012, 11:16:34 AM »

Nice. How does it do against FSS?

Seems to do quite well at slowing them down. I'd be able to tell you more if they didn't havok every time a flail gets ripped off. >:C

surely angling the discs less will make it harder to trap bots ?

Angling them more resulted in bots not even getting to the main weapon rack.

actually angling them less makes the bot wider and a lot easier to trap bots. though it does equally make it easier to escape which is why drive is rather important (npc fasts are probably the least you could get away with). and what gaz said
