If the popup isn't non-fail, then he isn't a fool. :P

STOP TRYING TO CONFUSE ME WITH RHETORICS

The new Shovelnose. Much better than the others.

By cutting weight from the chassis around the wheels, I got more weight for batteries. Now has enough to power to OHKO a few bots (It has before).

3 BSGs
14 ants
10 Razor tips
6 NPC Fasts
1mm Steel

Oh, and it won my challenge with Vertigo :D

That actually looks quite good. Again, depends on how effective the wedges are, like every other popup in the game. =P But I like that you're trying to degenericise it.

Wanted it to be original. It works well for something that everyone said wouldn't work.

That looks tough. Are the wedges on the side used for anti-imbolization?

NFX · « **Reply #607 on:** November 20, 2010, 10:20:23 AM »

I'm guessing it's partly to stop opponents going round the side and taking a wheel off, and partly for a similar purpose to R4's "ears", to kinda tip the robot forward to help self-righting.

Looks like srimech to me.

Must be, I used plastic skirts like that on Rather Large Mouse to self right :P

Naryar · « **Reply #610 on:** November 20, 2010, 11:23:43 AM »

It looks good but 6WD is still overkill

Somebody · « **Reply #611 on:** November 20, 2010, 11:26:57 AM »

Marty and pwn got it. They are used for self-righting.

Vertigo · « **Reply #612 on:** November 20, 2010, 11:29:23 AM »

Looks cool, and original
Not surprised that I lost to it, popup v VS is slightly one sided :P

Component Distributor 2

Rejected RA2TC Bot

Plastic 3

That snowplow setup is messy. It looks cool though.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #615 on:** December 11, 2010, 10:49:51 AM »

reminds me of Telescopic Sight (I think?) or maybe it was one of the CW robots? its hard to think at this time of night :P

looks cool anyway SB

Shipwreck?

Somebody · « **Reply #617 on:** December 11, 2010, 10:53:00 AM »

Any suggestions for making it less messy Nary?

Vertigo · « **Reply #618 on:** December 11, 2010, 10:56:08 AM »

That was one of the best bots that I was sent for RA2TC, shame its a juggler :P

Naryar · « **Reply #619 on:** December 11, 2010, 10:57:07 AM »

Ditch the snowplow. It has very few uses with such a setup.
