Cool, I think the internal wheels work on it.

Good. I was a little worried about that, I thought it might not look as good as the former setup but I wanted to try it, I'm glad it works well.

A few side notes about the bot; I wanted to make it a little bit of the best of Bushido and Samurai, but I couldn't work 2 rack/pinion pistons into the design so I had to stick with the side ap's. I used the carbon fiber extenders as 'handles' for the 'swords' because they were more cylindrical as opposed to the more prism-like aluminum/titanium/steel extenders, so I thought they looked better. The bolts? Ripped them straight from the original Bushido skin, like a boss. The flags on the sides were made in paint.net, and basically everything else was applied in the bot lab.

So yeah. That's for anyone who cares enough to read it.

Like it!

so for the first time in urjak time-measurements, I've done ~~LSD~~ DSL standard. And, for the first time ever, it's a BW.

Aeth Mezure. DSL Standard BW Rammer, twm3r/vlad drive, invertability, and a kinda cool skin I made by accident. 2 ants, the random beater bar is for stability and Pl3.

Let the flood begin.

Blargh irons. I don't think the middle weapons have enough reach either.

Kossokei · « **Reply #164 on:** May 03, 2013, 09:16:14 PM »

The razor hits, the beater isn't supposed to hit as it's kind of a caster but I wanted a caster that could deal some damage back, and I only had so much weight left so a beater bar seemed appropriate.

MassimoV · « **Reply #165 on:** May 03, 2013, 09:17:44 PM »

Still seems underweaponed.

Kossokei · « **Reply #166 on:** May 03, 2013, 09:59:58 PM »

Following 09's advice, I cut the chassis in half and used different drive motors. Same armor, I don't even know if I need the beater bar. The drive is probably asymmetrical now, blargh

so this is chris's bot. 173.2

Dusty thread. Very dusty thread.

So this is just to piss Mazakiri off. I wanted to do this for 1.5 and the original but... the original never saw a fight (ahem sylandro) and 1.5 didn't win any, so meh. Still, there's that.

And then there's this. Name not finalized, ti5, 4 razors on a bsg, NPCF/hypno, 5 ants and I think that's it. I dunno how good the wedges are, probably horrible, but it's good enough for me. So yeah. I'm a little proud of this.

If there were judges like in battlebots, I'd have won, and I consider ripping off a disk and dominating a match as a win.

And then vrooom completely ruined the bot. Twice. Thanks, SKBT.

MassimoV · « **Reply #171 on:** June 19, 2013, 09:33:26 PM »

But, was it judged like Battlebots...

good/advice 10 the 10 strikes back 2: electric boogaloo

I was actually hoping for a bit of advice on the bot. And yes, it's a blatant clone of one of your popups. It was the only MW one I found interesting.

Naryar · « **Reply #174 on:** June 20, 2013, 01:20:16 AM »

then post insides if you want advice

Merrick · « **Reply #175 on:** June 20, 2013, 04:35:05 AM »

It wasn't judged like Battlebots, it was done on the in-game points. Which isn't a very good way of doing it, hence why I gave him the win.

Also, why would it piss me off? I'm hardly Ian Lewis. :L

martymidget · « **Reply #176 on:** June 20, 2013, 12:13:52 PM »

10/10 intersecting razors

Naryar · « **Reply #177 on:** June 20, 2013, 01:49:11 PM »

interesecting is fine on popups

martymidget · « **Reply #178 on:** June 20, 2013, 03:07:25 PM »

10/10 thought the hexplates span

Naryar · « **Reply #179 on:** June 20, 2013, 03:21:12 PM »

Because he has the weight to make an angled FS/popup hybrid. Suuure.

Besides, spinning asymmetrical weapons = doing it really, really wrong in that case.
