Ha ha. =D Most of the time, my entries aren't that great, so I tend not to do too well anyway.

Anyways, on the subject of the bot, it certainly does look very intimidating. I'm just wondering how easy the shell is to stop with those gaps in it.

With a Double Mag... pretty darn hard :D

Can it beat flippers?

Beats the ones I have tested it on.
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

Unless he adds a Corkscrew-like anti-immobilizer, I agree.

Also, why don't people make Corkscrew-like anti-immobilizers more often? *goes to add it to Diamond Cutter*

Its asymmetrical setup and a powerful motor doesn't give it much need for a longer extender work. The KE it packs is probably enough to flip it over.

Huh. If you say so. Corkscrew-style self-righting mechanisms seem to work fine on Diamond Cutter, and self-rights it just fine with a DSL Bar attaced to a CE.

IS GOOD TIME TO RUN, FLIPPERS!

Hello Everybody! Thanks to some inspiration from The Ounce's rebuild of his Pulsar, I made a new VS, The Devil's Hammers:





The Devil's Hammers is a HW VS with four 70kg DSL hammers powered by two small Perm 132's. This bot his highly effective; using its superior wedge it can get under most bots with ease. With the help of its firestorm trapper, it grinds at the opponent, taking off any component is comes in contact with thanks to the hammers high HP. Its two main weaknesses are semi-invertiblity (not all that good upsidedown, but it can still drive) and its glitchy wedge (sometimes glitches through walls and become stuck).

Any comments would be appreciated. :D

Looks great, but... why hammers?  Wouldn't several high-DP teeth be better for trapping and grinding?  Hammers are generally better for throwing stuff around.

Not in this case. I used the hammers to guarantee I can out weapon practically every opponent I face, which this robot can. I wanted my bot to not have to rely on gut-ripping with weak high-DP weapons, but instead be able to strip off all component indiscriminately.
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

It's nice to know I've inspired someone.   :bigsmile:

Agreed.

I love it Urjak, and I can't think of anything else to say.

IMO, it's a great bot, but isn't the wedge a tad long. A SS could damage it.

It needs a long wedge to ensure that dual wedges can't flank it.

De-Weapon is king.

Although I am not sure how much de-weaponing power this bot has, since losing one hammer is enough to stop working.

Also I think this bot might benefit from a slightly bigger chassis to internalize the drive motors.  It only takes 2 small angles at the end.
