Use that for something other than sawblades. Maybe 100cm disc, maybe hex plate, maybe something else.

Whats wrong with sawblades?!

Anyway, I'm keeping the sawblades  :yaya) & I'll probably add some more frontal armour.

Triple Post =  :(

Here's a new bot:


Hailstone:
4 ant batts, slimbody-hypno drive, dual mag driving 12 flail-iron spikes on a shell.
But only aliminium 1

Get rid of 1 ant and upgrade to Titanium 1.  You only need 3 ants for this.

I know that in theory I only need three ants but if I only have that then the battery power has run out by the end of a three minute fight.

Oh, and turn the flails 90 degrees. They are unrealistic that way (and they do more damage turned 90 degrees!)

Thanks Badnik! It works so much better just by rotating the flails!
Anyways, new bot:


Bulldozer EVO, basically I wanted a well armoured flipper with decent drive & a good wedge.
Six wheel drive!  :laughing Slimbodies with hypnos, titanium 5, lots of ants, very little empty space, really good wedge.
I've stil got 35kg left over aswell!
All comments apprieciated!

Slimbodies on a HW = slooooow.

How many ants? This needs 10-12.

Damn, I thought it had 6WD NPC drive...

BUT IT LOOKS SO DAMN COOL. And 2 BSG's ain't gonna give you much. Yuo could just use 4WD NPCFs and use 4 BSGs.

Rust In Pieces - Paper Cut 3 (Grand Champion, Most Dangerous Bot)
Wheely Tag Tournament - Ion Thruster (Grand Champion, along with Ounces' DiSemboweLment)
UK vs USA - Dark Striker (Grand Champion)
Rust In Pieces 2 - Claymore (Runner-Up, Favourite Bot)
BBEANS 6 - Infection 4 (Runner-Up)
RA2 Team Championships - Serious Business, Skeksis (Runner-Up, along with Scrappy, S_M, and Badnik)
RA2 Team Championships 2 - The Other Stig (Runner-Up, along with Scrappy, S_M, Badnik, 090901, and R1885)
Replica Wars 3 - Abaddon (Runner-Up, Luckiest Bot)
BroBots - wheebot & yaybot (Runner-Up)
Robo Zone 2 - Dipper (4th place, Survival Champion, & Best Axle Bot)
ARBBC - The Covenant (3rd place, BW Rumble Winner, Most Feared BW)

My thoughts as well

But Slimbodies are useless on heavies.

4 bsg's give me enough power & 6 slimbodies with hypnos is easily fast enough.

How many ants? This needs 10-12.

10-12 if there were two bsg's yes, but there are four, I have about 18 ants because otherwise the battery power was fully gone by the end of a 3 minute fight.

Sorry just checked, you can't see 4 bsg's in the picture. There are 2 directly under the 2 other bsg's inside the chasis. They drive the 80cm titanium angled skirts.

Oh. But 6WD slims is wasted weight. You could just use 4WD NPCFs and it will be much more faster and lighter (on motor weight and batteries). You could use the remaining weight for steel skirts instead of tite. :D

While I'm stillmaking an update of that bot I thought that I may aswell post another one:



Auto Destruction:
Titanium 5, 798.?kg, 2 battlepacks, 2 ants, one geared beta motor driving 2 70kg hammers, lots of armour, 2 tite sheets underneath, npc fasts with hypno's.
It deals good damage when stable & well underneath another bot, but because there is 140kg on the end of the axe, unless it is underneath another bot it just flips itself over. Can self-right itself, but takes a while.  ::2mad
