Cheatbot and Chipsy or what it is called should do a tag team! :P

Chipsy, I like it....

Merrick · « **Reply #1442 on:** June 26, 2013, 06:59:49 PM »

Or Mr. Chips.

It looks deadlier. Blade is very low to the ground.

Then I would have to make Scooter.

So I was inspired by Urjak's Dragoon so I scaled it down into a HW.

And if you knock off the shell, it looks like a real SS...

How did you get it so tight?

Naryar · « **Reply #1446 on:** June 28, 2013, 01:46:58 PM »

...By making a proper chassis ?

It's original at least, could look cooler though.

Bah imbalance hax.

Indestructible top armor is not cool, especially for IRL.

Very, very nice indeed...

...where's the CB?

Imbalance hax? Indestructible top armor, you mean a solid disc is indestruble?

What do you suggest? It's right at 800 so I'd have to change a couple of things.

Thanks! And it's here:

You hacked the chassis down, so it motors and batteries acts as indestructible armors.

MassimoV · « **Reply #1452 on:** June 28, 2013, 02:20:35 PM »

I suppose but it still can get gut ripped pretty easily.

123savethewhales · « **Reply #1453 on:** June 28, 2013, 02:57:06 PM »

Well, considering IRL don't even allow half sheet and casters, something you can do in the botlab, I don't see being completely invaluable to top/side attacks through BFE being okay.

I mean, sure build whatever you want, but I don't think any sane tournament host should allow chassis height hacking below what everything inside can fit

MassimoV · « **Reply #1454 on:** June 28, 2013, 02:59:51 PM »

Yeah you're probably right. Though if it was in a judging tournament, like Battlebots, if it gets deshelled, its opponent will probably win anyways.

123savethewhales · « **Reply #1455 on:** June 28, 2013, 03:02:24 PM »

Or another HS/shell can take off a few panels but can't damage your chassis. And you eventually won because you have more weapons in KG and de-weaponed the other bot.

They can however damage your wheels much more easily now, so as they're attacking the 'invincible' motors which eventually get damaged to the point where they barely continue working and the wheels are being whacked away at, you'll eventually get immobilized by a stronger robot.

So there's that.

123savethewhales · « **Reply #1457 on:** June 28, 2013, 03:19:47 PM »

What are you talking about? Shells don't get immobilized when they lose half their shell and their wheels. They just bounce around the arena through the imbalance weight and dual perm torque. And that's exactly the point. A lot of bot types that can't gutrip it will automatically lose if it's weapon count is under 240kg in concussion.

It also opens a can of worm that nobody wants. Everyone who enters to win will flatten their chassis to nothing and replace it with cheap top external armors.

nonono I mean if you do actually knock off the shell.

123savethewhales · « **Reply #1459 on:** June 28, 2013, 03:23:38 PM »

Right, a IRL bot, de-shell solid 150cm on a dual perm with 240kg of hammers without having to go through with them first. In an environment where hammer bot has 1 spike and VS has 2 ripping teeth.

You have a better chance of it bouncing around and OOTA itself out of the arena.

If this is allow I would just enter a clone of this but with a square chassis and 4x 70 hammers.
