RedAce's Ironforge Showcase
« on: July 08, 2014, 08:02:21 AM »
Like a lot of people, I'm starting an Ironforge showcase, but because I'm not quite used to Ironforge yet, this may not be updated as much.

Anyway, here's the first two bots I made:



As I was searching the components available when I first got this, I saw the panels and I thought I could try to make a shell spinner since those are easy to make.



This is obviously inspired by Click's Thunderclap. It doesn't look the best so far, but I'll eventually give it a better skin.

As I wait for more entries in my tournament *cough*, This may be something I could do to mess around with for a while.

Compared to other IRL bots, I have no idea. Compared to the sample bots in the pack, they're quite crap.

Also I forgot to mention I may make an AI team in the future.

Yeah, the sample bots are way too unrealistic, imo, to test your IRL bots on (and I hate Damage Tester.)

Thunderclap looks sweet with the Mjolnir war hammer thing.

What armor does it have?  The secret to that design is to make the chassis as heavy as possible so it doesn't tip over.

Well, I might as well give this thread some life with my BOTM entry.



I was trying to make a bunch of references from The Shining, but I went a bit crazy trying to cram every reference in one splash.

Regardless of splash, the bot looks good. Is it effective? I don't know how many tough those hinges/flails are in Ironforge, but they look like they might be a little vulnerable, but there isn't much you could do about that I guess.

So uh, yeah... Ironforge.

Would it move via meltybrain or the 'shuffle'?
If it's the shuffle like in the video, the you might want to protect the wheel more as that's what generally points towards the opponent.
But super-bonus points for 1WD. :D
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

Meh, might as well post what I had for BOTM since I forgot to enter.





I was going for the whole St. Patrick's Day feel since it was for March, but oh well.

I'm glad someone mentioned it. Are there any bots you dislike, jaydee?

There are some (I don't post though as I don't want to be negative - ruin everyone's joy - cause an argument) but most I like. I hope there's no harm in that, is there?
