Zhuge with antlers is the Christmas treat we don't deserve. Congrats on winning BOTM by the way!

- MUSHI! MUSHI! - I was in the mood to build but not quite in the mood to come up with an original idea, so this happened... Weight: 782.4kg Weapon Motor: Perm 130 Drive Motor: x2 NPC-T64 (Fast)

Both of these look really solid doots! I'm surprised you managed to get Implosion as light as you did because it looks like it's heavier!

There's a sharp disconnect in the design of the smooth body and the jagged axle cover/stabilizer. I guess you could use extender spam on the body?
Yeah that bothered me too, it's such a shame that creating curves in this game uses up so much weight

- SPHYRNA 3 - Here's a prototype of a bot that's definitely not a shameless clone of S3/Tashic's bot Hammerhead (minus the beautiful paint work). I need to think of a way of detailing it to separate it from being a direct rip off of S3 though...

>unironically taking AS' post seriously
really? cmon guys, i thought you had better troll-detection skills than this. it's obviously a joke.
Speaking as an outsider looking in, I have literally no clue who’s trolling and who’s serious half the time. In any case this has gone way off topic and I will apologise for my involvement in derailing it.

IRL is straight cancer, it's bred more (((toxic))) users than any meme circlejerk discord server ever could.
Literally prove me wrong, you can't.
But it has generated users. It’s an unfair comparison, you are essentially comparing taking “two steps forward and one step backwards” to taking no steps at all and saying taking no steps at all is better because it doesn’t have that “toxic” step backwards.

Something about it just isn't as fun anymore
Yeah I tried to streamline the design to make it more realistic looking (ie: Lycan) but it does seem to have lost a bit of its charm. When I can, I’ll have another go at the absurd trap setup I had before.

Something more serious

Looks really solid! Is that a 60x120 triangle piece on the side or a 40x70?

- BLOODY PENNY - Generic Ring Spinner, not strictly IRL as the central disc collides with components but ehh, what can you do? I had to waste some weight on DSL disc trickery to lower the ring height getting is as compact as I could.

Two bots sharing a similar design, which I feel Arcane has now done much better. I'm so sorry man! Who'd have thought we'd both build basically the same thing at the same time lol, great minds think alike ayy? you could've saved the ZHUGES for future botms
^ Pretty much this! They look fantastic!

- CARDIAC ARREST & WARRANTED ARREST - I've been trying to up the combat effectiveness of my IRL bots, this time I went back to the police car theme for another Vertical Spinner to go alongside Cardiac; essentially the same bot cut in half, losing some of the aesthetic & drive power to up the component strength from aluminium and give the bar spinner a lot more kickback. And it can self right this time! :)

- CONTAGION (AGAIN) - Okay so it's nothing too exciting because it's yet another Contagion rebuild, however I'm really happy with the result this time! Once again rebuilt from the ground up. Taking heavy inspiration from 13 Black, the spinners now sit at a very subtle 2.5 degree angle for little reason other than it looks cool. Plus I've taken a lot of the bulk out of the boxy extender-chassis to make the shape much more compact and (per Hoppin's suggestion) added a support bar underneath to match the one on top.

Wish I'd had the time to build something for this.
Credit where credit is due, #3 made me laugh! The balloon in the corner was a nice touch, good job!
#1 & #5 would be the clear winners for me.

Yeah a 4-Mag isn't going to cut it for a HW shell. A 6-Mag is the minimum, but unfortunately you'll probably have to cut out a lot of the flair to free weight for that and some batteries.
Quaratine Zone - Like Pwnator said, 6-mag over 4-mag any day. Also in regards to your batteries, with 3 spin motors you only need 2 reds. Which will give you more weight for the 6 mag + teeth.
Thank you lads! Just need to clarify I did actually use a 6-Mag in this build! Had a bit of a brain melt, I'm not sure why I put Tornado-Mer motor on the list as I've never used that motor before... I still have 35kg to play with!

I haven't had very much time for RA2 recently so these are simple modifications rather than completely new bots... - QUARANTINE ZONE - After an early exit in Ironbound I've completely rebuilt the shell spinner trying to get it as compact as I physically can, upgrading the motors to get as much out of the drive & weaponary. It's pretty much a flawed design due to the weight of the shell causing the spinner to stop on impact and spin back up from zero but hopefully it at least looks good in the arena! Weight: 765.6kg Weapon Motor: Tornado Mer Gearbox 6-Mag Gearbox Drive Motor: x2 TWM3R2 Power: x3 E-Battery Long - CONTAGION (HW) - Started as a heavyweight, then I slapped armour all over it and called it a super heavyweight and now I've made some modifications to the heavyweight version to give it enough drive to be a nasty little sit and spin bot. Weight: 799.6kg Weapon Motor: x2 Perm 132 Drive Motor: x2 TWM3R2 Power: x2 E-Long Batteries

What does the pack have? I think I have it but not too sure
DSC's pack contains multiple different colours variants of commonly used components such as, extender lengths, armour panels, discs, wedgelets etc. If you don't have it I highly recommend giving it a download! :)
