Those aren't extenders. They're Typhoon teeth. They're 4kg each, so I just used them to eat up extra weight.

Hmm, I just don't get how you've saved so much more weight than me.
Unless you've managed to stick those npcs straight in the chassis  :confused:

I only enter VSes in CCs, unless a weight class repeats itself, in which I might enter a popup or something annoying. :P

Huzzah for random rebuild of the final frontier, cunningly called the final frontier 2!

Not too bad, I guess. I might remove the outermost extenders, and the chassis could definitely stand to be smaller. You need 14 ants max for this. Trim the chassis down as well, and I wonder if you could add a wamming rack at the top. =P

Haha, you got me NFX, It was gonna be a SHW 6 wheel drive version with weapon rack  :bigsmile:
But I have slightly different plans for a similair design but with a slightly different shape chassis, I got rid of the ramming rack and stuff and realised it was a lot like final frontier so tweaked it a bit more and have called it a sequel, i'm that lazy  :p

Anyway i'll tighten up the back, but there already is 14 ants exactly in there.

Side razors are useless.

Yeah, it's not bad, but might be a little too tall, not much defense.

Armor ?

Side razors were for side protection before I rearanged the wedges (on TFF1 they were rotated the other way), I had little else to use up the weight so I kept them there.
Sadly It has to be that tall for the JX burst motors, although when I rebuild it I'll try and put the back parts where the sheels ar on a slant (aswell as make then generally smaller).
And the armour's plastic 3.

Right here's Dialectic Chaos:


Nar challenged me to build a septuplet HW DSL hybrid, and I could only manage a sixtuplet  :(
Still, it's a facespinnertopspinnerhammerpokerflamersawbot which is something to be pleased about I guess.

turn the motors off and it counts as a rammer too!

<.<

Yeah, i'll go with that  :mrgreen:
What do the top spinners do?
Well, if a bot goes on them it'll grind them down a little bit.
Also, more improtantly, top spinner is an easy thing to hybrid so it helps me get another type into this monstrosity ;P

I'm gonna have to try this in a fight now, it probably won't fair too well, but I just don't care  :laughing
