Lols, it actually beat NAR AI Lock Nut

Epic lolz, just a shame the wheels are sort of kinda exposed.

OK, this is the one bot type I really struggle with, I need your help here

6-Mag
Plastic 3
4 Ants

For some reason, this gets out weaponed by every other razor SS, any idea why this is, evn though they have the same amount of weapons (roughly)?

It has 33 razors ATM, where do I get the weight for more while keeping them flail?

Meh, Sheck spinners. The one bot type I never build (though I did build a SS/Hammer hybrid once. See Craaig for details on how badly it fails). Looks good, and annoying, from my point of view. Any halfsheets underneath?

Hmmm.. It is odd that this shell spinner is outweaponed by SS that I assume have fewer razors. It may be due to the slowness of your motor (as 123STW said, speed helps piercing). Anyways, you definitely need some bottom armor or else popups will destroy you. Also, do as Pwn said and weaken your disk. Also, you might want to downgrade your drive to give you extra weight (just use Melty-Brain).

Does the shell get stopped easily by other robots?
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

A Dual Perm really is a minimum requirement for a HW SS if it hope to beat any other bot types.  Mag 6 just isn't enough.

Also, it is far easier to mount an external Dual Perm than an external 6-mag.

Do you feel it's better than Urjak's external dual perm with battery box SS?

https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,925.msg270768.html#msg270768

While you can mount 2 full sheet to counteract the huge chassis caused by the mag 6, it's another thing to ask if that's the best way to do it.
