Title: Silverfish's Ironforge Showcase
Post by: Silverfish on November 19, 2015, 11:13:55 AM
Welp, a 2 in 1 day. This is my first IF bot, done with no research whatsoever.

Would you be able to make it invertible with the slightly smaller wheels? Are 2 duracells fine in a longer fight? Looks pretty nice though.

Edit:

Only other thing I can think of is seeing if pole spikes work better than the irons. Not sure how the weight/dps/durability of the 2 compare to each other.

Edit 2:

Oh and maybe you could save some weight if you replaced some extenders with weapon connectors? Not too sure.

If you use the below-minimum chassis height and raise your blackbirds 1 tick, you can make it invertible using the 2nd smallest wheels


Then you could get more spikes or wider wheels.

I'd give it some light wheelguards if I were you. I may also see if I could get a nifty in there instead of one of the pinks, those things die insanely fast.

I was thinking what to do for 09's tourney, considering I have seen a grand total of 3 animes, (being Pokemon, Bakugan, and Beyblade), and then I thought of this and HAD to.(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/14085I Love Lucy Splash.jpg)

It is extremely slow but yes, it can turn given that the forward control is not being pressed at the same time, though it does a wheelie.

well it's legal then, hell i would have taken it even if it could have only gone forwards and backwards  :dumb)

also you are aware the irons won't be doing any damage like that right?

No XD I'll work on that. Shows how bad I am at IF. When this thing goes to signups, it'll be fixed up and sent. :)
