Not to say that 123AI has any particularly good wedge or anything. It's random, you put metal hinge on it, you either put angle skirt or small wedge, and somehow some wedge works and others doesn't. Although sometimes it also seem like some wedge is better than others until you run it 20+ times, then it goes from winning to losing just like that.
Yeah, the Sns are where it's at in there. Wedges are irritating, they are impossible to predict.

You mean wider as in the flail should be more spread out? Or wider as in the wheels should be more spread out? I am guessing you mean the flails since the wheels are already at the limit of the max sphere.
You would be correct.

The FBDs need a wider setup IMO, but it's good. Wedges are good even if F,H&P could get under them.

Hmm, maybe I'll take out the Vlad forks before you get a good chance to OOTA.

I'm kinda pissed off. My update claimed to have been uploaded onto the exchange but evidently it hasn't. And it is so much better than 1.4

Wait, my update has been on the exchange for a while. I posted in the thread just when updates opened. Whatever.
Well, it looks like I may do okay, inertia flippers are good at flipping upwards and behind.

Get some more exterior armor then. Wedges should be good. Also a pic please.

Madman, telling him to basically klone your bot isn't going to help him as much in the long run.
Now, I would none the less switch to technos anyway, it shouldn't effect the wedges too badly, and it'll be the best and easiest way for you to pull off YOUR setup there (i.e, 2 wheel drive).
Yes, you should probably only have about max 5 razorz on a single BSG, but don't switch to JX's, they suck really in comparison to BSG's, you could fit another BSG on there aswell actually with a bit of tweaking. The thing is, you have to get the balance between the amount of weapons, and the speed the weapons will hit at (obviously, putting more weight on a snpper slows it down somewhat and causes it to deal less damage).
If you want to try and improve the wedges more, try attatching the wedge component on to the end of another kind of extender such as a dsl bar.
Also, the power seems fine to me.
Soz, only meant for the basic weapon setup. With technos he could have better armor while retaining the weapons.

Hmmm.  You want four wheels and the setup I have, albeit with a Heavy Plow instead of Titanium Sheet I've got on the hinge there. Also you don't need so many weapons, 4 per BSG is a good choice. Looks underpowered too. O wait last pic. Still, it is more weight efficient to have 4 battlepacks rather than those ants you've got for the BSGs. That many Razors is way too much for those BSG's to handle. Get more BSG's, or swap to Jx's or (Dare I say it) break boundaries and use betas?
Just lower the weapon count, it'll actually do more damage! JX's are too large and waste chassis weight unless you mount the outside your chassis and even then 4 BSG's have more damage potential.

I like this design a lot. You have a little bit of weight left, but I don't think there is any need to use it. I don't want to give advice because for one, the bot doesn't need it, and two, I don't want more advanced builders to get mad at me for posting advice. I'd call that bot complete. How good is the wedge?
Hey, I'm hardly an advanced builder. I'm the average builder these days, and not in the same way as freeziez. Replace the full plate with a heavy plow, and you will have a slightly better version of FnF.
You have the extra weight anyway.
I'll do that when I'm done with some homework. Edit: It outwedges all the bots I've tested it against in 123 AI.

Lol, that just made me think. I have to make a comic script out of that.

Decided to try a basic setup for a pop-up.  In case you can't guess the insides, its 6 ants, 4 battlepacks, 4 bsgs, and the rest is visible. Wedges are fair, one of them AGODs but one is capable of going under HNM4 so it's fair. Damage potential is fairly high, 2 hit KO's aren't too rare, got a few OHK's. If you have a perception skill of less than 5, here's a pic.

How's the flipping power, I'm guessing high since it has a smashbox setup.

Update to the newest version. There are some bad bots in it...

The overall design isn't very good (yay for total lack of tact) so I would build a new one.

I won't use the above music because it makes no sense with the 123AI theme.
Fair enough. Wait, you don't happen to listen to Gojira, do you? It's just they have a song called Flying Whales. It's actually pretty good too.
