Go USA!


Let me be honest, here. I'll laugh if America gets beyond Round 1 of the World Cup.

Also, Go USA? Ha ha, now I know where that "A Place" is! :biggrin:

is that made of card?


No, it looks like moulded metal.

Oh, and that's a nice 3-month bump, there!

its better as a small group otherwise if we get too many people there would be to many people asking WTF is DSL and stuff like that instead of actually talking about robot arena 2


Good point, Stagfish. However, when did that come into the conversation?

Hmmm...so it looks like the battle lines have been drawn for the Top Winner's Bracket! I can now plan ahead...

CAUTION: WHITE STRATEGY TEXT BELOW, SO POTENTIAL SPOILERS
"OK, so I'll be facing Bigger Brother in the next round for certain. It'll all depend on the quality of our wedges. If I can get under BB, I might be able to toss him around enough to win, or better still, out of the arena altogether!
And my Semis opponent? SuperNova looked good when it caused all that damage to Crabmeat, but that chassis and weaponry system don't look too sturdy, so I think Revolutionist would win that one.

So potentially, Cassius II will then fight Revolutionist. It is decidedly powerful, but it's also quite unstable, so I'll have pretty much won if Cassius can flip the Revolutionist over-I don't think there's a srimech either, so if it goes over, it's pretty much beaten.

And then there's the finals. Undoubtedly, it'll probably be either Pulveriser, Warhead, or Toro. If I'm against Toro, I think I'll have the best chance, as I can't see any methods of it causing any major damage, so if Cassius II is quick enough, it could get underneath Toro and toss it over. If its wedge is good though, It could be a problem-that flipper looks immense!
Warhead? It is definitely one of the best looking replicas on here, but I'm still unsure of its self-righting capabilities. It it can self-right, I'll be in for a hard time. If not, it should be slightly easier, as it does look slightly unstable?
But if it's Pulveriser, there isn't a hope in Hell I'll beat it. I mean, it's an invertable Spinning replica. By Sonny Resetti. And I've only got a flipper. So technically, if I fight Sonny, I'll have lost from the start!"

I thought it was that he hated the fact it became more obsessed about ratings than combat...


I always thought that it was as a result of an incident during Series 3, when a robot wasn't shut off properly, and injured a crew member as it was being checked. Apparently, Rex then vowed never to enter Robot Wars again until the safety procedures of RW had been refined. They never really were, unfortunately.

And it was a crying shame too, since he also built a Cassius III.

Quote from: Naryar;79267
In a builder's point of view i think your 4WD would be better if you use the same motors and wheels (ex. 4WD TWM3R drive with hypnos) as you would get a flat bottom, and better ground clearance.

Suppose there is that Naryar, but I want the big wheels at the back so they're visible through the side panels, just like the original. However, if they could be elevated so they're just on par with the front wheels, I bet that'd work, too.
 
EDIT: Either that, or use two very powerful drives on Grippier Wheels.

Indeed I do! There's just something about it I really like... :smile:

What's so weird about it? You love Dawn a lot too, you know. :P
 
Anyway, it's kinda hard to emulate suspension with this game. Though ATT uses one, I felt that its system is too unreliable. Nary's 4WD solution might be better.

I guess you're right. I am also thinking about using 2-wheel drive, with big, grippier wheels on 2 motors. This drive system should be powerful enough to move the robot quickly, but without compromising its looks, ground-clearance and turning capabilities.
 
What drive do you personally think it could utilise?

you draw this in paint?? :o
respect!
I like the chassi of cassius 2 btw.
but i don`t know if it will be in dsl 3.


Yep. I just put in some fancy 3D and translucent effects :biggrin:

And thank you for your comments, too! I know it probably won't be in DSL. I mean, I know Click's working his arse off to get DSL 3.0 ship-shape, and I don't want to overwork him by piling replica ideas on him. But hey, I can always dream! :smile:

"The long awaited appearance of the Runner-up from the last Series-Cassius II and Rex Garrod, a Flip-up Paddle and CO2-powered spike the weapons...motors from Lawnmowers, will this cut the rest down to size?"

You've made an awesome replica of it.
or at least i think its awesome.
anyone else agree.

Well, judging by the awkward silence this thread has suddenly descended into, I think not. Anyway, I do think that my replica did look a little amateurish and unprofessional. This is primarily because Cassius II's shape is very angular, so it was impossible to replicate properly on RA2 without creating special components for the body panels.

Also, here's a mock-up of the real thing (In Pixellated form) I drew in Paint...hopefully, it'll look something like it if someone does a more professional style replica*.


*Not that I'm asking anymore.

Remember that time you wanted the cassius II replica?


Sure do! I've tried making one a couple of times. I feel they look a bit crap, compared to what they could be as DSL replicas, though. That's one of the things that fuelled my desire for a custom-built DSL remake of it*. That, and it was definitely one of my favourite (And definitely one of the most underrated) machines from the Third Series of Robot Wars.

* As long as it didn't turn out like Firestorm did...

I'm so sorry, Everyone. I don't mean to annoy you. I won't ask again, I promise :-(

EDIT: In fact, looking back at it, it reminds me a little of that "Simpsons" episode where they go to Mt. Splashmore!

"Will you take us to Mt. Splashmore?"
"No"
"Will you take us to Mt. Splashmore?"
"No"
"Will you take us to Mt. Splashmore?"
"No"
ETC.

I don't mean to be a pest, but would be possible to have a Cassius II replica built to fill that gap in Team RA2? Or will there be another robot made/placed there?
