Slightly less grip.

Yeah, that smoke is where Second Sentinel went.

They have same grip in NAR AI also.

However, Slipperbottoms are better due to slightly larger resistance value.

Finally got a bot I kinda like.

Yeah it's a drum juggler like NFX's. It has very very very good wedges that get under most NAR AI bots.

Soz, I cropped the pic wrong.

That looks quite good. I'd try and lighten up the extender work on the back, though.

Very good. I think the wheels are a little too exposed though.

You know, you could shrink the chasis down a bit, other than that it looks great

The armours pretty weak and I don't want my perms getting raped by a FS or something.

Perms have 8000 HP, IIRC. They'll be fine outside the chassis. ;)

I call that a treadmill. New bot type guys.

And perm 132's are overkill for 40kg of weapons...

Plastic 5. It is realistic as the titanium plate is on the middle attachment point so you can cut off the ends of the skirt hinge.
Pros:
Good wedges
Very damaging (usually a two hit KO, sometimes a one hit)
Fast
Cons:
Piss me off self righting

It looks very good. Maybe slightly overpowered but I'm not sure. I would also make the chassis lower. Looks great anyways.

Chassis height is pretty low, I wanted the BSGs higher up so they had a larger arc. And it's fine power wise.

It looks very good.

No. The razors are placed on the side, where they won't hit easily the chassis, battery setup isn't the best and it's unneccessarily big chassis.

It's decent by today's standards, but nothing more.
