If that's your unused BOTM idea, I want to see the one you used. :P
Very nice.

It would also be unused if I didn't enter. Making a decent splash does take a long time.
Pot Luck concept:

I'd change the setup to get those saws further back, they're too exposed there, and unlikely to get to the underside of the chassis as easily.
You could use angled sheets to try and get just one skirt hinge on there for the armour as well.

Completely revamped the concept:

4 ants, Plastic 5

Wow, that looks really cool. Why two Side Panels there, is it just for spacing?

How did you get 11 Chewblades on only two Perms, might I ask? :P

They attach to each other, although by the looks of things there are mini sawblades in between them there.

Looks a lot better, out of interest, are chewblades better than sawblades?

This reminds me of a certain other chewblade using VS... particularly infamous... Put the SFTW skin texture on it !

And yeah you can chain chewblades in DSL. I attempted to mod the sawblade to do the same thing in NAR AI, but didn't.

Front armour to prevent lucky hits.

No, just no. Rule of 7.

I believe so. 5000HP compared to 2-3000HP.

The first one is probably better, though if it's not fast/wedgy enough you gonna get raped by a HS,SnS/other wedge.

Sawblades sure are not protected... but a sawbot isn't supposed to have protected sawblades after all. They're supposed to be exposed so they actually can deal damage.

Problem is... have you seen the pathetic damage chewblades do compared to sawblades?

I got 30000 points in 40 seconds.

Hmmm...

Plastic 1
I should just use alum extenders instead of hex plates.

NFX · « **Reply #1033 on:** June 29, 2011, 03:15:13 PM »

ohai Urjak.

I think it looks okay, but the stabiliser setup looks very obscure. I'm pretty sure it can be cleaned up a bit.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #1034 on:** June 29, 2011, 03:16:38 PM »

Yeah, I'm just brainstorming. It was to provide invertible stabilisers with 1 skirt.

ty4er · « **Reply #1035 on:** June 29, 2011, 03:20:46 PM »

You don't really need those poly skirts.

NFX · « **Reply #1036 on:** June 29, 2011, 03:21:51 PM »

The Alu angled skirts are being held on by them.

Urjak · « **Reply #1037 on:** June 29, 2011, 03:22:08 PM »

Hmmm.. that bot looks familiar. :) Anyways, I think that the extender work could be lightened up. You really don't need to have invertible skirts for an LW drum (at least mine doesn't, it just runs along with the weapons scraping and seems just fine).

ty4er · « **Reply #1038 on:** June 29, 2011, 03:22:26 PM »

@NFX Put them on the extenders :P

I've never seen any bot like it [/sarcasm]
Yeah well I couldn't get the skirts angled like on yours for some weird collision reasons. BTW, can we compare chassis's?
