Swap the irons with razors, razors do better as popup weapons


With the extra weight you should be able to upgrade the wedges to green snappers.

Are the green snappers better? Because those snappers are just for wedges...

far too much weapon weight on a single DDT.

So, do I replace the irons with razors or lessen up weapons or both?

Most of the time, DDT wedges are better than green snapper wedges, which are better than blue snapper wedges.

You should put razors on 2 DDTS. 4 razors per DDT is the most you should use.

Not sure I have enough weight to fit in 2 DDTS, but I'll try and see what happens.

The drive is actually fairly had to get to. But then again I've never had an opponent get past the disc.



It suffers from the hammers falling off too easily. But then it loses it's 4000 hit point average if I put anything heavier. Probably not gonna win. But I hope it puts on a show.

Anything else looks horrible on it. I wanted it to look and perform like Nightmare. Good enough to put on a show, not quite good enough to win.
Nightmare had 8 wins and the most destructive VS in the division...

Yes. But it never won a whole Battlebots tourney :(
No, but it did win Most Aggressive one year.

And that's what I aim to do with this bot.
Don't think it's going to be very aggressive with that drive  :P
As long as it looks nice, I don't really care though.

Drive's good. Any faster and it'll flip itself anyways  :dumb)

Bad drive. Updrage it, get some protection for it.

Anything else looks horrible on it. I wanted it to look and perform like Nightmare. Good enough to put on a show, not quite good enough to win. Plus. It's already protected from the front. Will upload front view later.

Oh hey Hurricane's back.

Nah. Think of this one as it's stepbrother. Venum.

Just so you know, you only send 1 entry. The 2v2 matches match you up with someone else's robot.

Oh.

Every entrant will get 3-5 "stocks", depending on number of entries.

I thought that meant we got to send in 3-5 stock bots  :dumb)

why are u using redbirds over hpzs

Weight issues. I'll try shrinking the chassis if I can.

For the Rammer, you shouldn't be using redbirds with HPZs. Also, use just one wheel type, it makes it simpler. And you can reduce that chassis a fit on a bit more weapons. Other than that, nice bots. :)

Thanks. Different wheel types were due to the front wheel and middle wheel lifting the back wheels off fthe ground, rendering them dead weight.

Currently building a bunch of replicas for you to pick from.

In addition to my old Tough As Nails rep, I've just showcased Humdrum, just finished building 3 Stegs To Heaven, and am now browsing Robot Wars Wiki for more to do....

An Onslaught rep. would be nice.

I'll see what I can do.

With the car steering though, I might have the same trouble as Resetti in that it'll look way too big.

Someone should make a smaller steering unit. Or shrink the current one.

Would be able to push out a few more reps.

In this tournament, you must represent your own country and put its flag on your robot (there are a few flag packs in the downloads area).
So, basically, its mostly going to be USA vs UK.
And Malaysia, but yeah.

M'sia represent.

Haha, yeah stacking is really hard sometimes, but sometimes you can just get lucky. I guess if you really can't do it you could use hax mode...
Also, 150th post :)

I dunno why. My game hates stacking.  :(

I'm not sure about the batteries, another more experienced member can tell you that.
However, there is a lot of empty space in that chassis. By stacking the black batteries and just generally reducing space you could get those redbirds up to HPZ drive.

I tried so hard. And got so far.

In the end...

I still couldn't stack them.
