but i barely have any weight left =(

it's not a weight issue, it's a design issue

rebuild your chassis

Actually, dont do what i said. Pretty sure you can make this work without the need for weight change. Just put the T shape towards the back like Naryar has already explained, spread out your spikes like I asked, and it should work. No need to cop out of building a LW.

ive improved blueprint i think =p

You dont really need that top armor but oh well. Also, Overweight for a MW, practically anorexic for a HW.

Don't you ever shut up? It's got ballasts in it that don't count towards the weight, so it's pretty close to the Middleweight limit.

Still overweight, however.

Virus Bomb · « **Reply #86 on:** August 05, 2015, 12:16:44 PM »

if hes using 2 ballasts then it isnt overweight.

Avalanche · « **Reply #87 on:** August 05, 2015, 12:28:50 PM »

I only see 1 under the piston.

Reier · « **Reply #88 on:** August 05, 2015, 12:37:14 PM »

its a much better design than the last
you also don't necessarily need the chassis to match the piston in the back, pistons can go through chassis. It's not a big deal either way you choose but it might save up some weight if you need it.

Naryar · « **Reply #89 on:** August 05, 2015, 12:37:42 PM »

Sooo... where is the second ballast, or is it an anorexic HW ? I see only one ballast.

Reier · « **Reply #90 on:** August 05, 2015, 12:38:36 PM »

do you even need ballasts at all in this design? it would move faster with less weight which is important on a rammer
ballasts are more valuable on VS and flipper and stuff which are inherently more unstable

RedAce · « **Reply #91 on:** August 05, 2015, 12:39:30 PM »

My only explanation is that the ballast is stacked, which is still illegal.

As for advice, what Reier the man said.

ecolusian · « **Reply #92 on:** August 05, 2015, 02:13:18 PM »

avalanche, its only one ballast and reier i added the ballast so that it would balance a bit better since i though the array pointed down would hinder me, also the piston is inside the chassis so that it doesnt get damaged.

another thing avalanche, you can have up to 4 ballasts that dont add to the weight limit, any more than 4 ballasts then you would move up a weight class but its only one so its still a lightweight k =)

Avalanche · « **Reply #93 on:** August 05, 2015, 03:01:03 PM »

294.6 - 50 = 244.6 = 44.6 = HW.
Im sorry, but where the blithering f*** is your mathematical insanity coming from?

cephalopod · « **Reply #94 on:** August 05, 2015, 04:08:31 PM »

Avalanche, if you could explain to the guy without being so amazingly condescending that'd be great.
Ecolusian, I've said before that the Ironforge weight limits aren't the same as the ones the game gives you. You are then allowed 4 ballasts on top of the Ironforge weight limit.
LW: 125kg
MW: 200kg
HW: 400kg
SHW: 600kg
Basically half the in game weight limits is the Ironforge weight limit. :)

ecolusian · « **Reply #95 on:** August 06, 2015, 10:18:12 AM »

im still 19kg over weight =( even after removing some extenuous stuff =(

Naryar · « **Reply #96 on:** August 06, 2015, 11:03:52 AM »

...Rebuild chassis ? And re-read your showcase and re-read all the advice and remember it ?

Avalanche · « **Reply #97 on:** August 06, 2015, 11:35:05 AM »

Remove the t from your chassis, its not needed. The piston can go out the back of the chassis and be fine, you know.

ecolusian · « **Reply #98 on:** August 06, 2015, 01:54:00 PM »

here is my new version of blueprint, hopefully it is better, it has to be worthy of ironclash ya know =)

the armour is plastic 5

Naryar · « **Reply #99 on:** August 07, 2015, 06:13:17 AM »

it seems to be better, yes
