Looks pretty good to me. Is it any good in combat?
I've not given standard building a try in Ironforge yet, so I've no idea what works and what doesn't yet.

I just battled it against the HW VS in the pack and the hammers fell off on the 2nd hit, so I think some rethink is needed - this type may just not be viable whatsoever.

the ninja star vs seems to be more of a sawbot, and is is pretty good deweaponing vses, but the other HW VS should be able to be beaten by yours

Here's a whole load of bots, lol.

1) RIP4 Entry, HW. 4 ballasts in the back


2) LW Popup


3) LW Hammer/Axe. I really like this. BFEd to be near 180degrees on the axe


4) Generic HW Bar HS


5) Pretty ugly IRL-style Shunt-type thing. Disappointed with how this came out. Again, axe is BFEd to near 180degrees.


6) Old generic HW Popup, was gonna enter this into RIP4

I heard you guys like looking but not posting ever


Snazzy HW FS


HW IRL-style hammer. Because hammers.


Infernal Contraption styled VS. Not very good.

I like the look of the Shunt-type bot and the Infernal Contraption style bot. The RIP4 entry looks to be very unstable when something gets a good blow from underneath it. However, it looks better than the other bot you intended for RIP4 (and looks are all that matters to me tbh), so I'm glad you chose the one you're using over the popup.

All the hammers look great and the VS is pretty sweet.

Looks great. The only real problem I have with it is the wheelguards, I feel it may look better if the flippermakers coming from the upper chassis were lower and tighter to the rest of the wheelguards.

I'll try stuff out, but I imagine I'd have to use 60 degree flippermakers which I don't really want to do because of how they stick out.

Other news, new top panel for dog.

10/10 better srimech, and cooler looking.
