Sometimes it can but most of the time it needs a wall. The disks are too small and spin too fast to get enough bite to kick it back up.

Same with Father of Flaze.

That looks so cool though.

Plow extender work can be better IMO. Also would it be better with only 1 disk on each perm and heavy DS teeth ?

UHW Multibot take 2!

Looks pretty nice. Mechavore discs aren't great, IIRC, I'd try and protect the extenders you have on the weapon arms instead of the perms.

flip those plows over so it can trap better.

^^Agreed^^

Looks good. I like the beater bars and shrimech.

Naryar · « **Reply #247 on:** November 06, 2010, 04:57:16 AM »

the mechavore discs aren't doing much here.

Make it a classic hammer/pinner hybrid rather than bothering with HS.

BRAVO for doing a UHW hammer.

I thought about it... but when it came right down to it, I didn't have the guts to try building one. It's a risky move.

Also, what everyone else said about the spinners. I would put another two plows above the lower set in order to protect the Betas and trap bots.

I'm ready for CC4 with Jaws Of Defeat ³

Nice. I have a bad feeling it won't drive straight in reverse though.

SKBT · « **Reply #251 on:** November 13, 2010, 06:34:25 PM »

Yeah reverse is kinda iffy but at least it doesn't drive like a drunk :P

Nice, more fodder for my entry.

NFX · « **Reply #253 on:** November 13, 2010, 07:46:54 PM »

Looks quite good. Regular NPC's seem to be a bit slower than I imagined on rammers, though. How's it for invertibility?

Riiiight. Trying to get past the sheets while your teeth take a beating from the razors won't give you much of a chance to get to its wheels.

Silly Pwn. Thanks to the shape of the BSG's, it's unlikely that he'll get to the chassis. Besides, my teeth clamp from the sides, so unless he deliberately goes for the side due to AI'ing, he'll walk right into my trap, and his chassis will be all mine.

I feel special knowing my simple skirt hinge rammer design has become quite popular in use

looks real nice..

Sorry to burst your bubble and all, but skirt hinge rammers are not that special. Heck, you didn't even design them (I think)

Hmmm..... More reason to enter my SnS in CCIV

Naryar · « **Reply #259 on:** November 14, 2010, 03:33:27 AM »

FOTEPX if you don't have anything constructive to add, then do not post. kthx.

I have the same feeling as click anyways. But why the crossed rammer design ?
