Yep that's because there aren't any replicas in starcore.
Follow what I said before and get the DSL mod.

Download the DSL mod from Sage's sig. The bots are in it.

Needs more drive, less weapons.

I'm not really sure. I would love to fight it with Crab Salad, though.
I smell a challenge thread... and come to think of it could I get in on this with Jaws of Defeat?

I bet it's some voodoo magic.
Anyways what exactly is the point of all the weapons so close together? Is it to beat bisector or something?

Take a look at this. It's my 12lb bots chassis. Take a look at how much empty or wasted space there is in it Why I'm showing you this you might ask? It's to show you that even in real life combat robotics we don't like empty or wasted space or the same reason we don't like it in RA2. Empty space = wasted weight that could be used elsewhere to make the robot better.

My first trinity SnS

Lujo
1 black, dsa. beats pretty much anything that isn't an HS and delivers some big hits (highest was over 10,000 IIRC).
Pssst Scrap I think you showcased this with the wrong account. :P I thought it was you, not vb who challenged Robo, Pwn, and sage. @VB: Cool take on the 36 HS.

Wedges aren't essential on LW rammers
They are! That's pretty much your only hope against a popup!
I beg to differ. I'm not trying to toot my own horn but take a look at Jaws of Defeat. It's got a 7-1 record and it doesn't have a wedge. If it's a slower rammer I'd say wedge. If you are going for speed forget the wedge because it has a higher chance to bounce and the wedge can get in the way of the weapons hitting the opponent. (there is a reason why I've never bothered to showcase JOD2. It had a wedge and it caused the other bots to ramp up and over the top :P)

The last three pages were pretty awful, IMO.
Yeah I'm almost ready to re-create my robotics team thread instead of posting my progress here. :P Side note about the bot, ITZ ALIVE! Plus my girlfriend is also ginger,
Mines a Pseudo-Ginger. She's closer to blond but depending on the light it's sometimes red. :P

Couldn't he save this by taking the bots he has and run a double elim bracket.

Reboot your computer and get back to us about if it worked or not.

the game.
This will probably overtake ponies in the Memebase here.
We already had a 'the game' stint. It lasted from about April 2010- July 2010 (I think) @the new guy: welcome if you have game questions be sure to ask we are here to help. If you need a copy of the game (being RA2) search around the forum until you find a guy called sage. You can download the game or the DSL mod for free from his signature.

Static wedges typically aren't that good. (although sometimes you get lucky like I did with Hangtime II and you can get under stuff) Your best bet to get under stuff is to go with a door hinge wedge (yeah I know it's heavy... But it works well)
I bet of you make the chassis smaller you'd have enough weight for a door hinge wedge.
I think you're a bit inspired by Civil Uprising in the RIOT team in DSL. Take a look around in other peoples showcases for inspiration. You might find something that gives you a good idea.
Edit: PWN you type too fast. Either that or I type too slow. :P

Uhhh...
You need something more like a 6 mag or a Dual Perm. A single mag doesn't cut it on a HW shell spinner.

Guys like Vertigo, SKBT and martymidget tend to give good advice And I do have some advice for you. 1. Try and see if you can make the chassis smaller. Smaller chassis = less weight spent = less weight spent = more weight for other stuff like armor weapons ect. 2. Use something other than that DSL disk. It weighs a lot and there are lighter ways to get four weapons on a spinner. Play around with different extender setups and see what works and what doesn't. 3. If you have extra weight find a way to use it. An extra weapon or an extra layer of armor could save your bot in a fight. 4. Have fun.

I'll quit. My spring break ends next week and I won't have much time for building after that.
