Shouldn't jupiter be a flail HS/SNS?

That wheelbase isn't good for SNS. Try the "Standard" one.

You all are making me very happy jumping in to do remakes, commenting on each others efforts with constructive criticism amd keeping to the flavor of each bot and bot team.

As to H.A.N.N.A.H replacing Castle Guard: I put a tuned H.A.N.N.A.H in as replacement to Castle Guard because that was the best option available at the time but does break the intent of keeping to same style of bot. Given a choice, should have some style of Sit and Spin or Twack style bot instead. I like the idea of a Tiny Trinity for Castle Guards replacement but if that gets sent in, then I really want H.A.N.N.A.H placed somewhere else in the LWs.

The tuned H.A.N.N.A.H is a very nice LW VS and they are quite rare in the LW category.

Head-to-Head Wee VS and the tuned H.A.N.N.A.H both trade off taking each other out. So they are both pretty effective VS.

Do people feel Wee VS needs to be replaced or should we look at replacing one of the many LW HS designs or other less effective bots?

Thoughts?

I fell HANNAH should replace A lesser HS, like Klip.

Hey Pwnator,

I like Jupiter and Poptart. Can you send me them so I can look them over in depth for things you can fix to make them better?

I don't like your Borg remakes, however.

Well, to whoever makes a borg remake, please make it more mobile. When you fight that thing, It doesn't even move. It will stay there because of it's lack of mobility and be immobilized without even going into contact with the other bot.

Wee VS is fine as is. I think HANNAH should just be put on one of the newer teams. This all can be decided later after the next beta is out.

@ Mad & Inf - The bots are sent. :D

@ Naryar - I was already quite happy with my 2nd version of Borg Drone because it rarely tips over when starting to spin up. It only does when someone's stupid enough to turn while in the air. I also discovered that removing the caster can enables the bot to give a hard time to low, wedged bots (still loses to most of them, though).

Will still try your suggestion, though. :D

Changing the center spinner to a normal Z-Tek and then changing to Redbird drive would probobly be for the better.

Poptart's done (again)! This time with Z-teks and a razor less.

This time it can get under Zenith with ease. >=)

Sure thing Hydro, but I can't zoom in further because it will only allow the user to see the paintjob, not the insides. :(
