I would hate to see you die.


SEE him die? You better not see him die.

Same here, and even a Hypno wheel, but I won' see the point of being 4WD, and it is unwise to use two different wheel types (ground clearance problem, especially with wedges).

Inf, is it the chassis slightly pointing out of these side aluminium skirts ?

Nice design, BTW.

...Mome Rath is weak against a HS for sure. But other types have serious issues. I think it's S3's most dangerous VS.

Clockwork Hydra isn't a big threat if you build correctly your bot.

I suppose that's 150 HP/ kilo.

Ah, it is underpowered too...

But if it's just for the sake of replicas, it's fine.

I'll build Mome Rath DSL.

Clockwork Hydra doesn't looks that destructive. These wheels aren't grippy at all, and you have empty space in the chassis.

Also, DSL tribars are heavier and more fragile than stock tribars...

This is Infernal Contraption 1


This is Infernal Contraption 2

Same drive train, the screenshot isn't just as precise as the first.

For the differences between 1 and 2, I slightly resized the chassis, swapped two ant batts for a battlepack, and other things (i didn't really needed a heavy skirt for the lower wedge), but most importantly changed the weapons because these Magmotors on hinges (quasi vertical weapons) wobbled too much to be efficient, and upgraded the armor from 3mm Ti to 5mm Ti (i rarely use heavy armor). But the drive is the same.

These DSL cutting teeth are supposed to fend off HS attacks, but they're nearly useless.

________

But it isn't as efficient (in his weight class) as HazCon.

In fact for this design, I think MW is the best class to go. I don't really know if i can make a LW version, and that said it won't be very efficient because of the need to have wedges and two spinning weapons (these will be piglets for sure).

Good thing, the arena hasn't a central blade, so InfCon 2's can rush in and strike quickly.

And another good thing, that HazCon never did...

Build a bot that can BREAK THE SOUND BARRIER OMGWTF !!!!!11one.


This would basically dislocate the bot.

Or make him an helicopter if the bot is tough enough (perhaps all the metallic parts in tungsten alloy... no, no, the bot would be three times heavier) and the weapon well cut.

This just gave me an idea to make a helicopter replica for the BotM. But I still think Enola Gay will be better.

One mouse button isn't that annoying, i have a touchpad (mice are better, that said) and I can make the right click by putting two fingers on the touchpad and clicking on the only button.

I have a MacBook classic (the small, new laptop, all plain ugly white)...

And I can't make both of these brackets!

I have a numpad in my own keyboard (K for 2, I for 5)..., F1-F5 are used for luminosity and sound volume... for sure, the computer is small (15' screen), but the keyboard too.

Indeed Mac are horrible for games, but especially running Windows games on a Mac.

(sorry for the double post, but can't edit my previous one)

@Mad: Well it is Neglected Waterbug DSL...

Against a Mako clone with the same wedge system it should be fine, but against a bot like Far Cry with small wedges or Destroyer with no wedges... i really have doubts.

I think Infernal Contraption will have seriously more trouble than his little brother.

Thor 3.

But if Thor 3 can get under Critical Emergency or Second Sentinel, he has better wedges than IC 2. IDK about Smashbox, at all...

If it continues like that, it is gonna be better than BBEANS 4 bot-wise, because all these bots look good. (Ripterra's now way outdated, huh, SB?)

I just spent 5 hours struggling with my computer in order to cancel a Chdsk.exe command that I launched because that Mac-supported Windows crashes my games extremely easily (excepted RA2 and Morrowind)... It also did me things like launching Firefox 3 in 5 minutes, or putting me a blank screen for no reason, breaking my web connection...

The Chkdsk blocked at the end... some of you guys know what is a hard drive disk check in Windows XP, right? Well, the thing asks you before starting "hit any key if you want to cancel".

I put a WEIGHT on several keys and resetted the comp more than 40 times, but no. Generally i just need to reset it less than 15 times, but...

I tried to mess with the DOS, but the MacBook's keyboard don't have brackets (and no Del key, that said, great for RA2) and i can't use commands.

Finished with a simple thing: "start Windows with last working parameters" (or something like that), it worked.

For concluding... **** the guys that say "you can use Windows on the new Mac computers".

Well, there's NO way IC 2 can't get under Thor 3- look at that big ground clearance.

Against Destroyer (what a generic name...), I really don't know - Destroyer can't possibly flip IC 2's wedge design and IC 2 won't get under Destroyer easily. I have the edge in defense/mobility, he has the edge in offense.

These DSL bars are a great idea indeed. I find them more cool-looking than the usual hinged wedge.

Paprika, you just did by asking "i'd like to enter". Now send a good bot to Sage and you'll be in.

Joe, i used the balance bar system too on my unique dual perm VS (that sucked), but as steel extenders.

EDIT: Sage did you get my bot?

Obviously these are no parsley leaves. Im pretty sure it's mint.

Problem...hmm... Wait, isn't child porn prohibited (because she/they obviously got it in the ass)

Anyways, both of them are nice.
