No problem with it after all Nightmare also send bots flying look at Slamjob

But, Nightmare had stability problems (No self righting, hard to turn) as well as being vulnerable to HS'

Hurricane 2 however, CAN self right, is quite fast and nimble for it's size, and has been able to take on Grog.

It can't go into corners though. Large skirts kinda hinder maneuverability.

It just seems too... powerful. Usually sending bots like Grisly Bear and Velociraptor flying end over end with ease.

...and this is a bad thing because _______

To be honest...

I don't know.

Armor is Plastic 3. But I have to ask, is there a problem with having two smartzones? One smartzone isn't enough to cover the bot.

MassimoV · « **Reply #425 on:** June 20, 2013, 12:28:50 PM »

You only put a smartzone where you want your opponent to be when the weapon fires.

martymidget · « **Reply #426 on:** June 20, 2013, 01:20:13 PM »

Or you could use a bigger smartzone?

Badnik96 · « **Reply #427 on:** June 20, 2013, 01:20:56 PM »

Why do you want the smartzone to cover the bot?

Updated Guardian.

Don't know why I put the tail though. Armor is still 10 steel. Insides are the same.

MassimoV · « **Reply #429 on:** June 21, 2013, 12:06:31 PM »

I like it. Pretty clean. The exposed flippermakers is its only problem.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #430 on:** June 21, 2013, 12:46:00 PM »

It is a lot better than the last one. Don't like the tail though.

And I liked your old avatar better D:

I agree fully on both avatar and bot.

The first time I've built a decent SHW

Will most probably enter it in the next Battlebots should IMpact fail.

Yo guys, shut up. It doesn't matter. On the tail, I'd make it more spikey istead of just having it beat a sledge hammer on the end.

It's surprising how the mods haven't stepped in to tell you both to stop veerin' off topic.

Anyways, a comparison of my first ever DSL bot, and my most recent bot.

Then

Now

Well, they would, if any of 'em were online, foo'.

The wedge is cheap but the bot isn't half bad. The skin would be better if they wer completely around the front.

I actually ~~stole~~ took inspiration from the wedge design of HazCon.

Yea, Cheap wedge.
