I decided to remake Vindicator by basically combining its design with that of Triceratops:

Overall, it's better than both Vindicator and Triceratops. It uses a double-skirt hinge wedge which does rather well, has the armor of Triceratops on the front with the gut-ripping potential of Vindicator with Hypnos attached to Fast NPCs. It also looks cool, in my opinion.

I don't like the look of the skirt wedges on it but the rest looks pretty good.

Some more bots:

Kinda like the second one although add moar weapons so it looks cooler and does more damage.

Finally decided to get DSL3, and I absolutely love it so far. Just to kick off the now DSL3 showcase, here are two of my first bots:

As usual, feel free to give your input on the bot.

Not too fond of the first but I absolutely love the second. You really show promise as a great IRL builder.

If you want your robots not to be super slow you can download Nar AI 3.

I'm generally aiming for IRL/Rule-of-Cool type bots, so I don't think Nar AI may be the best choice since they're standard, I believe?

Yep, Nar AI is standard. The locking motor that comes with the treads is terrible. Use another motor. Other than that, I also like the second.

nar ai 3 is just components at the moment, which doesnt matter for irl building

second bot looks awesome anyway

Lol It really doesn't matter, the balance in DSL 3 atm isn't that good. All Nari AI 3 does is rebalance the components (and makes the wheels suck less, so bots aren't super slow)

>mfw nar ai is downloaded by irl builders
>no such thing as bad publicity

Thought it was an actual AI Pack.

Anyways, here is a Cruiserweight Flipper named Devious Ways:

I don't know its effectiveness since - let's face it - nobody builds Cruiserweights.

Meet Botwash, a Carwash/Antiballast Test/failed attempt to imitate Domanating.
