Metal hinge wedges ?

Has Thyrus finally converted itself to standard building ?

Thyrus will enter Total Annihilation with a serious bot this time... And he`s going to clone a bot of the oh so mighty nararararararararyararar

cause you can't build worth crap outside of IRL

[Thyrus]

that's actually true

[madman3]

that's actually true

I'm here if you need guidance.

[Thyrus]

thanks I will post the bot as soon as I'm at home

[smashysmashy]

NO, THYRUS. NO.

HE WILL ONLY FORCE YOU TO BUILD A TRFBD.

[madman3]

I can build pretty much everything other than SS :P

[Thyrus]

don't worry. I'll stay with my irl crap. just expanding building a little.

Weight and armour?

Plow on the back is (IMO) weight wasted.

[Thyrus]

723,0 Kg, Steel 5  but it will be rebuildet anyway. The plow in the back is for the rumbles to prevent damage to the kinda exposed nps

[NFX]

Looks like a good starting point to me. Plow on the back is definitely pointless, and the Tite sheet on top could probably be swapped for something better, perhaps more weaponry, or more frontal defenses. It's a bit narrow at the moment, I'd try to widen the wedges if you can, and make it wider in general. It'll be harder for opponents to flank you and HS to hit your sides that way.

[Naryar]

It's basically Hope no More 3 with more armor...

[Thyrus]

I took the basic design of your hope no more and tried to build something like it. as this is only at 723 I still have weight for armor left. The name is also something like a pun :P

turn the bot into a true popup(like HnM 3.2 and 4) so that it can hide it's weapons better(i'll obviously get repped down again for this).

His weapons probably won't get hit where they are and standard popups tend to do a bit more damage.

usually when a bot climbs a regular popup, the weapons fire before the chassis is directly perpendicular with the razors, which is dangerous if you fight SnSes and SSes.On true popups that doesn't happen because when the opponent climbs the wedge the razors are already perpendicular to the opponents chassis.(true story while fighting DisEmboweLment and Infection 4 with Midnight Ideology))

Really all you need to do to avoid that is either do something akin to R4's ears or change your smartzone placement.

While I`m still working on the regulat DSL HW I made a walking flippperbot that fails in every battle. It kinda looks like Raging Reality.

[madman3]

Awesome. Are there any wheels that fit in the wheelguards that would work instead of the walking?

i think Vlads would do.
