He means attach the weapon motor to a multi-extender instead of a baseplate anchor, or directly to the baseplate, which you could do for the drive motors as well. 

If you want, you can add a couple of skirts coming off of multi-extenders to the side in a V formation; these can act as stabilizers as well as trap opponents.

Would changing the chassis armor to 5mm plastic give you enough weight to add another ant battery?

On topic:  R.I.P. Lu-Tze, you were a great contributor to RA2.

Personally I prefer using 2WD NPC Fasts with Technos since it's lightweight while still being somewhat fast.

With a bit of tweaking that would probably be a worthy Backyard Shredder rebuild.   :bigsmile:

I think the use of angled panels might be the reason for Diamond Cutter's success possibly because they provide undercutting action.
None of your ghey flails will beat black storm !

At least i don't think so :P
Yeah, it's just your thinking:

Lol now can diamond cutter kill CROSSWIND!!!!!!
Possibly, since hammers don't do well against high-DP weapons on flails.  Speaking of which the newer Crosswind is on the exchange because I couldn't wait for v2.4 to be released.

I'm willing to team up with someone.  Has Gazea found a partner yet?

Haven't had a lot of ideas lately, but I built this:

5mm titanium, NPC fasts (*insert certain M. Bison quote here*), 5 ants for maximum motor output, 8 large beater bars and small DS teeth, 2 half-sheets.

I question why I built it so close to the deadline.  I wanted to stick to the design of the original, while improving on it at the same time.  Definitely more stable than the original, but just as deadly, as seen in this test battleshot.

I don't think there are any other teams with a theme ahahahaha.
I actually gave my team a "uniform" so to speak, but it's hard to tell from the splash and videos.

I forgot to mention:
Should there be a future sequel to SOTF?
Hell yes!

Maybe a tighter chassis would help, but it depends on what armor you're using and if the empty space is for realism purposes.

If you want you can take an example from my Pulsar XDB (one of my most recently showcased bots).

Also the way you attached the disk to the Perm makes it unrealistic.  Use the other attachment point.

Good Snow Leopard. :evilsmile:
*bites hand*

And Ice Tornado uses FBSInvertDir.py, so it had the chance to score some KOs (it came close a couple of times), but the Havok mines from CGS!'s drive motors prevented it from doing so.
