I also smashed up all the popups, Drumblebee larva and that poker with the funny snowplough placement. (Bedlam.) It basically rapes all bots without side protection.

But you guys DO have a basis for being correct. You see, the only reason I like chaines drives is because they help with trinity thwackers like this.

The spin-up time on Gamma is pretty much non-existant with the chained motors, which is why it pwns bots so easily. I've had 2 occasions where an iron of mine breaks off INTO a snowplough.

It practically engulfs half the combat arena, and all for a bot that fits inside the max sphere.

And best of all, it is controllable.

So yes, Chained drives are good, but they are only good, like everything else, if used correctly.

Yeah dude chain drives are bad. Interesting bot though. I'd like to see you give it armor and a longer wedge to see how it fares against stronger bots.

Chained drives do fail, just looooook. Chained weapons work though.




Would you care to repeat that?

Seriously, You made that WAAY to easy.

Even without a proper DSL DL, I can tell it is in the components section. Warp it more next time.

Also way too much horizontal spinners for my liking, and 2 very ghey crawlers.


Ironic, A person who entered a bot that used to be considered cheap around the time of click's enterence into RA2 is complaining about other bots being cheap... Go figure.

I forgot the tribar.

The chassis can still be about 109 KG.

I'll post a new LW up probably...

Hmm, I guess I'll have a more protected bot if I do that. Thank's.

All Components: 115-113 KG. (Forgot Snapper II weight.)

Chassis can be:

133 KG (I think...)

DSA = Possible.

Welcome to the forums, dude. It's pretty nice for a newcomer. But here are some more tips:

First of all, you're gonna need 2 supervolts to power the bot (remove the pinks). Also, you don't need the rear spikes. Always have your weapons face the opponent (sans horizontal spinners). You can back this up with a strong drive (which you already have) and wedges (which you also have) help a lot.

However, we encourage building to the weight limit so it should either be no more than 398.9kg for a MW (the HW should have 4WD HP-Ztek drive). Also, the servos give it a nice touch but a strong bot can take out the extenders before the razors would do substantial damage. Put them on a Snapper instead and have them arc from the back to the front. We call those popups.

Good call on the batt consumption and the combo pack. However, you don't really need DDT wedges. But yeah, razors on a DDT would be nice. Remove the middle snapper to gain the weight. Also, you might need to rebuild the chassis a bit to attain the desired performance. NFX, visit some of the showcases here. These will give you tons of ideas.

this site as mentioned above http://beetlebros.gametechmods.com/ra2techs.htm is your key to stock building it is full of usefull things to try out to improve your skills.

Double-strength aluminum armor. This is a handy little glitch that gives you armor as light as aluminum, but stronger than steel.

To get it, simply don't apply any armor to your bot. Ignore the Armor menu. The armor the game gives your bot by default is just like aluminum, but it is twice as strong and it isn't shiny (the tell-tale sign of DS Al is to paint your bot black and rotate it around - it won't light up).

You don't need two blacks. You have no idea how much you can learn here. Take a look through clickbeetle's, mine, infinitegenitilia's or pyscolones showcases. Roboshark and scrap daddy too. You will be amazed.
