diggin the drum
how do the wedges work? In my experience wedges are hard to do effectively in IF, especially MW. Stuff's too bouncy. they any good?

straight forward enough though. He was too wedgey for me to get a good hit on, and my bot was too lightly armored to take many hits itself.
 :P

hey man welcome to gtm :)
nice first bot! I can tell you've been lurking a bit, you seem to be aware of ironforge weightclasses and the like. I'm assuming you're not going for an IRL approach and are trying for a more efficient robot (standard).
what's the armor? chassis armor is more important in ironforge because it's stronger compared to DSL or stock.
there aren't actually any SHWs in the pack as of yet though so you're at an advantage fighting them :P
you might possibly be a bit low on amps, i calculate 60 amps needed and you only have 50 in the batteries. This probably isn't too big of a deal because I doubt the beta gets used too much (it's a srimech right?) and burst motors are the main amp drain. Other than that it should be fine.
I bet you that a lot of your instability comes from your drive. I'm not entirely sure if you need dual firebirds on a VS. It's your call.
I am a bit worried potentially about that exposed weapon motor though. It's not really anything your fault, it's just inherent with VS (vertical spinners) of this type that use a dual-axle motor. Hopefully the crushing teeth will make up for this, they have beast HP compared to many weapons. I do think it may be a little low for a SHW though. I don't have much of a point of reference because there's no SHWs in ironforge yet, but I'm just guessing. The chassis is also very large which isn't necessarily bad, but it makes it very easy to hit in this case. I'm glad you put armor on, I'd probably put even more if I were you. Durability is even more important in ironforge than in DSL and stock imo.
all in all, nice first start. thanks for making a showcase, glad to see what you come up with next. :) Be sure to check out other showcases too.
There are some MW ironforge tournaments potentially coming up, it'd be great if you want to compete.

2 things
how great of a change can "interchangeable weapons" be? Do you have to keep the same chassis only or can you only change a few things or what?
also what is a "home arena"? Do you just pick your arena preference and there's a chance you'll get it or something? I don't get it.

so wait, arsenal won even though it lost? I figured you forfeit your points if you went immobile or something.

elbite's gonna need some editing to make the tesla more viable, it barely does any damage to ironforge armors

Casters are good for armor on the front of wedges and the bottom of most HS and VS.
yeah I meant in ironforge though yeah actually the kenzorg would be fun

if by drill bot you mean like this, you don't really need casters. Honestly you don't really need casters at all in ra2

probably want to post a screenshot so it's available at a glance, it's much simpler to analyze a picture than downloading and opening it, etc...
we're experienced enough here we can see what's going on if you show us a good angle

if the entire goal is to survive as the LW, wouldn't everyone just coat the thing in casters and make it an indestructible brick?
