THE NAME DOESN'T FIT BECAUSE IT'S TOO SMALL FOR IT TO BE MAJOR AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I know lol. I was lazy when coming up with an adjective that wasn't too far from "heckish", seeing how that is kind of the HW version.

Maybe you can put a caster on the bottom if you want more protection.

I don't have 6 kilos to spare, unless I change the DSL bars to flipper segments, which I don't think will work.

Slashback v3, beaten ? Damn it.

That's Razorback 3, not Slashback 3 lol.

Anyway, tomorrow I'm leaving for 10 days on vacation to the Pacific Northwest, mainly Seattle and Vancouver (I'm comin' for ya R0B0 >:D), and I wanted to post some bots before I go.

3mm plastic, 4 ants, 6 small beater bars and DS teeth.

A decent LW drum, and can be quite damaging once it reaches a chassis. It's not very good against most SnS, but can beat a few other bot types.

5mm titanium, 4 ants, 2 70kg, 1 60kg, and 4 55kg hammers.

Another weird SnS, based off the one I posted earlier. Stability is still low and realism is still questionable. It still managed to kick the crap out of Black Storm though.

Normal NPCs, 5mm plastic, 3 ants, 8 small DS teeth, 4 small beater bars, and 4 large beater bars.

I don't know if this has been done before; a Sadrabbit/Drunk Driving-style VS in DSL. It's not as good as my last MW VS, since it's easier to flip and can't self-right as well, but it's still pretty damaging.

well I havent memorized all the DSL values but im going to take a stab in the dark and say the dual E-Tek has more HP then a single one ?

It's faster.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #583 on:** August 12, 2010, 10:59:52 AM »

really? that doesnt make much logical sense with realistic balance

123savethewhales · « **Reply #584 on:** August 12, 2010, 12:04:58 PM »

Now that's one weird SnS.

Stability might improve if you put attach some 40 poly skirts on the half sheet.

It's faster.

Not exactly - it is more powerful. Same maxspeed.

123savethewhales · « **Reply #586 on:** August 14, 2010, 03:28:47 PM »

Lol you know how little max speed matters beyond a certain point..... Just look at that overpowered dragon's breath.

I had some free time during my vacation so I installed DSL on my sh**ty laptop and made these:

Grisly Bear rebuild:
10 ants, 5mm titanium, NPC fasts, 18 bear claws, and the CB is in front of the drive motors.

From testing the wedges seem decent, and it is stable.

Tip of the Iceberg rebuild:
1mm titanium, 5 icepicks, , everything else is visible.

Right now I'm not sure if it is up to today's standards, but I'd definitely say it's better than the current NAR AI version. It is somewhat unstable, but can self-right well enough.

123savethewhales · « **Reply #588 on:** August 21, 2010, 01:31:07 PM »

Lol, I don't even know what today's standards are anymore.

MassimoV · « **Reply #589 on:** August 21, 2010, 03:32:26 PM »

Great job, but I thought DSA is bad in DSL. Is that DSA? Again, wow.

Somebody · « **Reply #590 on:** August 21, 2010, 03:35:08 PM »

Top one has 5mm Titanium, bottom one has 1mm Titanium.

MassimoV · « **Reply #591 on:** August 21, 2010, 03:42:51 PM »

I'm sorry the white armor confused me. I'm sorry I'm looking so stupid.

Somebody · « **Reply #592 on:** August 21, 2010, 03:50:08 PM »

Hey we were all real stupid about RA2 when we joined XD

There is an option in the bot lab to add an armor but have it not paint the chassis.

Edit: 5300th post w00t!

Pwnator · « **Reply #593 on:** August 21, 2010, 10:08:48 PM »

Extender work on the LW looks kinda messy to me, but the HW is awesome!

Naryar · « **Reply #594 on:** August 22, 2010, 09:36:01 AM »

4 claws ? Isn't that a little too much on a bsg ?

And i wanted to keep it 4WD also :P

TOTI is cool, plz send.

Pwnator · « **Reply #595 on:** August 22, 2010, 09:43:47 AM »

4 claws is just as heavy as 4 picks. :P

Naryar · « **Reply #596 on:** August 23, 2010, 11:08:57 AM »

But the arm is lighter and less long :P

I liked it enough with 3 weapons

The Ounce · « **Reply #597 on:** September 04, 2010, 01:31:25 PM »

Finally a new bot:

5mm titanium, 4 NPC fasts, 4 ants, 16 beater bars, 22 razors.

Basically a HW version of Neptune, named Triton after Neptune's largest moon, and because our TriTon loves flails so much.

Advantages over its SHW counterpart include a slightly faster spin speed, and a longer reach, so it performs better against wedges.

MassimoV · « **Reply #598 on:** September 04, 2010, 01:40:43 PM »

I really like it. I was going to comment that it looked like a HW version of Neptune but then I finished reading your post

. Keep up the good work.
