Looks pretty good to me. Is it any good in combat?
I've not given standard building a try in Ironforge yet, so I've no idea what works and what doesn't yet. 423
General Support / Re: AI mixing« on: July 11, 2014, 11:57:25 AM »
In this case I would say no, it is not possible to mix these, or at least not worth the hassle.
If the robot you were trying to add has custom components that you have not also added to the game, then the robot will not work. If you wanted to add the RW Thermidore to DSL 2 you would also have to add all of the components Thermidore uses to dsl too. Also if you are adding robots from the RW mod, which is for DSL 3, to DSL 2 you are also going to have the problem of all the DSL 3 components that are not in DSL 2. 424
Custom Components Showcase / Re: Jaydee99's custom component Showcase« on: July 10, 2014, 04:31:04 PM »
Ok, if you want to keep building with custom components, then fine, keep doing it, but don't just keep making loads and loads of bots without actually improving your building.
My advice is: Build and post one bot at a time. That way we can give our feedback much more easily than if you post loads at once. Also, once you have posted the bot and looked at the comments, improve that bot using the feedback from the comments before building another one. That way your building skill will actually improve rather than stay at this constant plateau of 'meh' building. TL;DR post bots one at a time please. 425

That Diotoir is a thing of great beauty... something I never thought I'd say about Diotoir of all robots! Great job :)

First Ironforge bot: LW, under-weaponed as anything, but looks alright:

This sounds cool. I'd come along for whatever I could. TF2 would be my first pick as well.

Looks pretty damn good to me, although the reach on the disk doesn't look great. Still, very cool.

Gnat Bite? Spanish fly? Bullet Ant? Assassin Bug? Siafu Ant?
(I literally just went down a list of dangerous insects for most of these :P) 432

That looks very nice. Personally I don't really like the black armour panels between the wheels, but everything else looks great.

Custom Components Showcase / Re: Jaydee99's custom component Showcase« on: July 07, 2014, 10:48:06 AM »
Like Mr AS says, I highly recommend you get actually good at normal DSL before using custom components. You will not get any better at building if you just continue to make messy robot after messy robot, whereas if you were building in DSL you could build and improve a single robot and get better advice on it from the community.

DSL TC Showcases / Re: The Natster's DSL showcase of inquisitiveness (All Feedback Welcome!)« on: June 30, 2014, 11:39:45 AM »
With regards to armour, Naryar's DSL tutorial lists Plastic 5 as a good armour choice, Titanium 5 as an excellent choice, and Aluminium 5 as a very poor choice, so with this in mind I would stick to Plastic 5 unless you can get it up to Titanium 5.
This is probably my favourite robot of yours to date, my only complaints are the halfsheets and the spike on the top, which I don't think fits with the design too well. Otherwise, looks good to me. 437
Modifications / Re: Robot Wars Magazine Arenas & Series 7 Competitor Components« on: June 27, 2014, 05:23:45 PM »Nah the pack is free, I'm just accepting donations to keep it going and extra services mentioned on my site in case people want custom components or something 3D printed.Something 3D printed? I must have missed this, that sounds pretty awesome. I was skeptical when you talked about donations before, but I realized I couldn't actually come up with a single legit argument against it, so now I'm all for the idea, especially with cool rewards. Arena looks just as amazing as everything else you've done so far, and I'm looking forward to the release :) 438
Discussion / Re: Stock "Sportsman Class"« on: June 22, 2014, 03:52:23 AM »
This sounds really cool, I haven't been building stock much for almost exactly the reasons you described, and this sounds like a great idea to get back into building stock again.
