Looks good. Whats the skin like?

It looks like an acid trip. I'm basing it off of General Jack D Ripper's obsession with fluids from Dr. Strangelove.

One 400-point hit and your weapon motor is gone. I would downgrade the drive to Astros (you might have to resize the chassis) and get some motor protection.

What's the best way to protect it?

Badnik96 · « **Reply #345 on:** June 25, 2012, 12:55:19 AM »

Put something in front of the motor (like a DSL bar or something).

Looking decent, if kinda narrow. It looks like it could be easily tipped over, perhaps widen the stance a little to help with that.

My OCD-ness is killing my bot building skill.

Looking pretty good, but doesn't the weapon scraping the ground hurt it? (When I said make an upper and lower set of support extenders, I meant put the lower set below the disc, to keep it off the ground.) If it works fine with the disc on the ground though, ignore what I just said.

I believe it just makes the bot turn a bit.

Another WIP, the first HW I've made in a while. Uses four BP's, and has titanium 3 armor.

sledges look out of place

I present... Major Kong!

After this, I'm down to my last bot in my Live Designs team. I've got builders' block, though

I'da thought tazbot wedges work/look better than the flipper segments + beater bars, but that's just me.

ew

the wheelguards look a bit flimsy and i doubt you'd see hammers being used for ramming along with the beater+flipper segment arrangement you're using. and the shell panel pieces dont fit imo

Wow that looks bad if that's IRL

Naryar · « **Reply #356 on:** July 13, 2012, 03:33:26 PM »

Not only does that weapon setup looks bad, it's also pretty lame efficiency-wise. Try and come with something cleaner.

Natef · « **Reply #357 on:** July 13, 2012, 03:35:57 PM »

What do you mean, "cleaner"?

Naryar · « **Reply #358 on:** July 13, 2012, 03:38:23 PM »

Simpler and lighter.

Natef · « **Reply #359 on:** July 13, 2012, 03:40:51 PM »

What if I used irons instead?
