I'm not going for good, flashy, complicated, anything like that.
As soon as I learn to do skins, custom decals, and AI'ing, I'm building craploads of robots, and thinking of doing an all-origina realistic display tournament, in RW Series 3 format. I did a similar thing when I was younger with RW:AoD, but as you can imagine, it was a lonely, crappy idea. ![]() Time will tell. 2584

Most of the others I've seen have. I thought it was done thing.

Aw dammit. I missed that.
I'll change it so a saw or a shorter bar. I can't imagine a shorter bar would look that great, and the wedge looks quite poor. I'm gonna have to elongate it, I think. 2586

It was intended to be a sort of sit-and-spin tail, similar to Lizzard from Dutch Robot Wars, but I've had a quick look and I don't think a burst motor would fit amongst the drive and batteries and still look like a decent tail. Not sure if it would actually be able to right the machine either.
It's not like it'll ever fight, so it's sort of a moot point. This is time-killing for when I'm bored after work. ![]() Edit: My Stingray is cooler than their Stingray. ![]() 2588

So I decided to go purely for looks and realism rather than actual skill and combat ability, and start making random splashes.
Here's a couple I whipped up tonight. Things will improve. 2589

My latest 'bot has come up with a rather creative way of immobilizing it's opponents.

I'm thinking at least 50% of the posters noticed.

Scrolled through every single one of my posts, and the worst thing I've ever said is 'damn'.

My attempts have entered have slowed since everything I seem to do appears to be wrong.

Oh, yeah, of course. Gotta think this through more often.

Surely if I attach it, it'll just spin with the hammers?

What should I do about the brackets and supports that the weapon supposedly needs?

Potential RA2 Olympics HW entry?
Based on Critical Reaction's chassis design, with weapon inspiration from The Alien and IG-88. Probably my most destructive bot so far, by a long shot. (That's not me saying it's actually any good though. ![]() 2600

Might just make my bots Canadian purely because they're in the DSL decals.
