I say put flippermakers on your wedges like i did on the Epic Showdown version of InfCon. Might help.

Introducing Sand Pit, a mix between a HS and a VS, but is more of a HS:

5mm titanium, NPC normals, 210 kgs of weapons.

Another design meant to counter wedges, and does well as expected, but can beat some VS, SnS, and other designs as well.

Ooo there's something about it that catches my eye, IDK what it is though. Does it do high damage?

I like it, but the motors seem too exposed. One good hit from a spinner and you're done.

You know you want a side panel for front armor.

I would if I could get the weight for one.

No sh!t Sherlock, but the only bots that can hit them are bots that it wasn't designed to fight in the first place.
Does it do high damage?
Well, is this high damage for a HW?


On the topic of the new ICM, I tried Nary's and 123's suggestions, but 123's made it unrealistic and Nary's caused the wedges to go AGOD on me, so I'll just send it to Naryar as it is unless anyone else has some suggestions.

You can always cut a battery.  5 batt should be enough for 4 motors.  Although I will lower the armor to plastic 5 and put LOTS AND LOTS of external armor on it instead.

Bullet Ant 5 prototype.  8 razors, 6 ants, 5mm plastic.

The sting is much more powerful now, and the wedges might not be the best, but it's so good at flanking that it hardly matters.

It would have been perfect if it weren't for this:

but at least the collision meshes are lined up.

Do wedges attached that much into the chassis are really worth it ?

Yes, because more weight in front of the wedge mount = better, and that was the only way I could have attached them anyway.

Probably hates them because some of his bots got trashed by a few of the good popups in NAR AI.
