You don't need a crack to use RA2, You can get a "Ready to go" Version in Sage's Signature or via download from the downloads on the tabs above. (Sage is a user on the forums, you can find him by searching him on the Search bar on the forums.)

If i remember you can put stuffs on the side of that poly extender, however i would just upgrade it to titanium or something
Erm, no, waste of weight really, there;s far better uses for that weight, notably upgrade to dual perm, bottom protection and moar weaponry.
Well, it depends if you're offensive or defensive
If you have weight at the end you might be able to upgrade it.

Oh and get NAR AI for generally better/more bots to test them against

Yea, You should look at the Battle Shot I just took, Which I think make's the decision valid.

OK, the only thing I have left to say is get NAR AI from my sig I'm about to update.

Got Version 2.3 from the AI lists.  :gawe:

Good, now get 2.4

I Did, So yea, I now do have a efficient testing source.

Meh, I'd join if it was MW. Too many DSL HW tourneys.

I Would join if it were a lightweight one, I'm not too good with Middleweights.

UNDERWEIGHT!!!
Fix that most heinous of crimes.
Need to see insides aswell.
I can tell for one thing though, you've probably not got underprotection on there, so use titanium half sheets, or gut rippers are gonna wreck you.

If I added a final row, It wouldn't spin, So I'm probably going to have to upgrade the armor?

Not bad, now try building something else

Just did, I made a Sheck-Spinner, Which I attempted to make called Razor Octopus.
Razor Octopus:

Description: Originally designed to be a lightweight, It got upgraded to Heavyweight because of tinkering around with it.
Drive: 2 Mags
Weapon Power: 6 Mag Motor
Weapon: Lotsa Razors attatched to axles.
I've forgot most of the details because of the updates on T3chn0.

Try taking out something like Grim Chopper or something that is ACTUALLY DSL and not just a target.

UNREALISTIC


Looks good, though. I'll leave the criticism to the others.
For tournaments only allowing realism, 2.0 is the one I'm using, otherwise,
3.0 is the version I'm going to use.
All DSL tournaments have the realistic rule, I'm afraid.

I have seen some exceptions, Which I saw in the signups section.

SO MUCH EMPTY SPACE

You mean in the final version? I Don't thing there is anything nessicary for this bot really... I Updated it's batteries since the last one. Now has 4 ants, Since it runs out of power quite quickly,

But you have any propositions?
You could make the chassis a small rectangle and use a ME and put the weapon+weapon motor outside the chassis

I Did that on a seperate version (Version one) and came out with this:

Smaller, Faster, but it deals less damage even with more razors. I Tried beating typhoon faster with this version, But it was seconds off my record with V2. Anyway, Is it ok?

Piglets would be better in this case. Because your opponent's going to be sitting on top of them, and they'll not be moving, and thus dealing no damage.

They WILL deal damage even if immobile, but barely any.

Especially low DP weapons like that.

If it were to use High DP weapons like Sledgies and Razors correctly, It would have maybe have the chassis higher, or the Pigs higher, Maybe both. So yes, there will be problems for is and the fact that there are going to be lots of repairs. Or he could have stuck to the Miss America design.

Edit: The Miss America design WITH the pigs.

Take a look at this. It's my 12lb bots chassis. Take a look at how much empty or wasted space there is in it  Why I'm showing you this you might ask? It's to show you that even in real life combat robotics we don't like empty or wasted space or the same reason we don't like it in RA2. Empty space = wasted weight that could be used elsewhere to make the robot better.

I actually used most the ground space of my 'bot thanks to joints, I Added a Battery to make the weight and give it more power, since it runs out of it fast. And I don't think there is any more space left to use for weapons.

You only need a 3x2 chassis, with the height as low as it can go. (click the bottom of the height ruler, don't slide it down.)

I'm not too much of somebody who builds outside of the chassis. Really, I'm going to keep this design and experiment with it. To see which design works best.
