so here's my SheetMetal modded entry. It's called Mangonel, has 6 ants and 3mm plastic.

(Image removed from quote.)

At first it was a firestorm-like flipper but it sucked, and now it is a bit better but still bad. I have the feeling it just sucks because it's an inferior bot type

Will probably change bot type.

Sheet Metal rules state you can't change bot type if you update.

I like the bot, however

It needs an awesome skin first.

It looks like enigma. <3

Looks cool, but you could've been working on the Aerodactyl update I'm still waiting for. :P

It will come this night, I promise.

Yay Nar's building. It will beat my SM entry.

Naryar · « **Reply #1267 on:** November 13, 2011, 04:51:29 PM »

So i heard everyone is building and showcasing for b4ttlebots, and here I am doing the same as well.

Wicked Demeanor, aka mini-Bad Attitude. 3mm Ti, 5 ants because I couldn't find more things to use weight on. Needs awesome skin. And it's also cute.

SHW will come next, MW and HW if I have ideas.

It looks pretty good, apart from the skirt hinge on the front. You could give it 4WD and another set of weapons on the back for when it's inverted. Might have to change the drive motors, and possibly sacrifice a little bit of efficiency, but it would look more IRL, in my view.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #1269 on:** November 13, 2011, 04:57:06 PM »

Don't like that wedge like that. At least hide the skirt hinge in the chassis.

MassimoV · « **Reply #1270 on:** November 13, 2011, 06:29:41 PM »

Looks fast. I'm interested in what you'll do for SHW. Should be interesting.

smashysmashy · « **Reply #1271 on:** November 14, 2011, 02:17:54 AM »

I think wedges like this should be banned. IMO there needs to be small wedge piece things on there.

I really wouldn't want to go against it D:

Naryar · « **Reply #1272 on:** November 14, 2011, 05:16:18 AM »

OK, i'll change it to a metal hinge wedge

Scorpion · « **Reply #1273 on:** November 14, 2011, 10:34:50 AM »

Because hinged wedges don't exist in real life.

Naryar · « **Reply #1274 on:** November 14, 2011, 10:40:14 AM »

Do razor tips as they are in the game exist in real life ? Nope. Using them on IRL builds is however fine, if not used to excess.

Your argument is invalid.

Scorpion · « **Reply #1275 on:** November 14, 2011, 10:42:08 AM »

Does ANYTHING work in RA2 as it does in real life? No. Therefore all IRL building is invalid.

Hinged wedges do exist, but very rarely as an offensive weapon. The only example I can think of is the Superheavyweight Maximus from Battlebots Season 5. Generally, they would fly up due to the undulations in the ground, or bend underneath you and completely defeat the purpose of having a wedge. They are more usually found on the sides, to offer protection against other wedges, such as Panic Attack. But not usually on the front, and nowhere near as shallow as that.

Hello there, ~~hazcon 3~~ third MW juggler ever

Sooo it's 3mm plastic, 6 ants, the rest you can see. Untested yet. I am wondering if I should enter that or a wammer into GRW's tourney.

MassimoV · « **Reply #1279 on:** November 19, 2011, 01:43:46 PM »

Reminds me of that one bot on the Razor Team. I forgot its name.
