Belt support is needed.

Moar weapons is needed.

I redesigned the chassis for Buzzcut so this version may make it IRL. Also makes Buzzcut more stable than the previous versions so that's an another upside to this.

Built a successor to Shrapnel, Shrapnel II. Shrapnel II uses the same type of weapon but this time is in the vertical position. Shrapnel II's design comes from the real life middleweight Anklebiter (Season 5.0). Shrapnel II's strengths are it's destructive weaponry and it has decent armor. The weaknesses are however it has issues with getting knocked off balance and the wheels are exposed.

Shrapnel II's inspiration

People keep telling me to add supporters, so I'll say the same to someone else.

Except, he has them

those supports aren't adequate imo

Badnik96 · « **Reply #127 on:** April 10, 2013, 02:47:26 PM »

Agreed

Is this an improvement support wise? Just let me know if I have to do otherwise.

I thought the one before was fine but I think that's better

They look solid, I feel like a ripblade style stabilizer system with those green casters would look good on this.

Yeah you need something touching the ground on the front of the bot.

Did a rebuild on Shrapnel II and I think I've got the supports down. What do you guys think?

Probably Rob · « **Reply #133 on:** April 10, 2013, 06:24:40 PM »

Ah, stabilizers was the word I was thinking of - probably also what the others meant to me. I love it, man!

Thought I'd reveal one of my entrants for BB6. I decided for my middleweight entry I'd use Enforcer. Enforcer has been a very reliable robot to me up against the dsl middleweights and so I decided high time to see how it would do in a tourney. Updated the paint scheme too on it for this.

Argh, it's got a flipper.

I like the skin though. The theme gives a very Battlebotsy feel.

Funny thing is Enforcer is the name of a real life lightweight Battlebot and it currently holds the record for the longest competing Battlebot, 15+ years now.

While sort of accurate, Enforcer is now a 30lb sportsman class robot and has not yet competed this year.

What Mike said. I'm also kinda scared because I entered a non-invertible HS...

Revealing my Lightweight entry. This is another robot from earlier in this showcase, Voltergeist. Voltergeist's flipper is one of the strongest I've built and with the extension up front easily slips under other lightweights and sends them flying.

Lightweight: Voltergeist

This isn't a horror movie, those are real bloodstains and screams of other robots. Be afraid, be very afraid of Voltergeist!

Middleweight: Enforcer

"The duty of an officer of the law is to protect and serve." What a load of crap. Here is Enforcer!

This was the earliest verson of Enforcer btw

Heavyweight: TBA
