This is Magnolia, an overhead built off F1Krazy's chassis for the chassis swap thing. Coincidentally, it's my first build in the new crash pack. Came out pretty well for an overhead, all things considered, though the white chassis made a different style of splash necessary. Drive is slow as sh**, the weapon is only a 4-mag bc the chassis was just too small for a 6-mag, but the great chassis armor should help make up for the lack of power. At least I'd hope.

Arcturus looks sweet, but I suggest bending the saw arm the other way so the arm doesn't get in the saw's way

Oh that's actually sick

I'd prefer if the arms weren't so angular though

Phantom 5.png


Phantom 5. I've revamped this for Orc's Wars after all other versions either failed in combat or became illegal for 2020 rules. It's now got 6 large beaters, better wedge capabilities, and (hopefully) a more reliable srimech. All of this, as well as replacing flats with TWM3Rs, led to a massive reduction in speed, from 4 NPC Fasts to just 2 NPC Fasts and 2 Slimbodies. Orc's Wars will probably end up being the last tournament for this, as I've started to believe that Phantom's design would more than likely be impossible to make to any sort of decent standard IRL on account of being just so big. It's also proven boring in AI, and the aftermath of its PWS6 run still leaves a bad taste in my mouth. However, I do hope this iteration will finally do justice for the Phantom lineage by getting good results in OW5. Or it crashes and burns. Who knows.

Dragon Khan.png


This is Dragon Khan, a crusher built over the span of way too ****ing long. Probably not enough batts to last a full 3 minutes, but I'm extremely happy with the look of it.

Grim Rapier looks cool. Does it have hinges on the jaws ? Would be cool if those jaws had weapons in them so they would do damage.
Thanks!

The jaws themselves aren't hinged, but the entire assembly including the piston/flamer is, so it's still functional as a controlbot. As far as weapons go, I might try to get some in and remove some of the bits I added after removing the piston, but optimizing a SHW has been pretty low on my to-do list as of late. Only made Grim Rapier for a Discord tourney because no one else is going to be recording SHWs anytime soon.

Did some more stuff

 
2020-05-29.png

First, I made Twisted Fate legal under the 2020 ruleset. Not much exciting to talk about here. Dropped the flats to TWMRs, gave it less teeth, made the wedge better, and gave it an absurd amount of battery life with the remaining weight.

This is Cross Check, a 6WD top hinge lifter thing. It has next to no OOTA potential, but it's pretty durable and has enough power to bully around most opponents. It alo has hockey sticks because who doesn't love sportsball? Also really happy with the wheelguards I shamelessly stole from Doot. Just generally feeling really good with how this came out

Anomaly is getting closer to IRL, but it's still overweight for HW. I'd reduce the typhoons to 4, get rid of the random bits on the sides, and put in an actually functional wedge to start. Lowering the chassis armor will give you the weight you need

I suggest you take a look at real bots and stuff other members made for inspiration

Behold! A SHW! This is Grim Rapier, my first foray into the hellscape that is weightclasses above HW. I've gotta say, I'm really happy with how it came out. If it's hard to tell, the weapon is a poker on a free hinge, emulating Bale Spear's setup. Also included are 6WD NPC Fasts, plenty of batts, and Alu10 armor. With the name, weapon and astrological symbol on the skin (trust me it's just Aries), dick jokes are expected but not welcome. Feedback, however, is.

UPDATE: **** AGOD it's a flamer now

Something about Battletoad's eyes concerns me and idk what it is. He has that look to him, like he can't be trusted...

Krokodil and Whirlpool are awesome

Poison Ivy's color scheme has never looked great to me, but the bigger weapon is nice

I much preferred Hearbreaker as a normal axe. As it is, it kinda blends in with your older turret axes imo

Let's get ready to RUMBLEEEEE!!!!
2020-05-13 (3).png


Viking Warrior, a bot based on Danish fighter Mikkel Kessler (AKA Viking Warrior) as well as his cool as **** entrance theme. Built for Orc's new thing. Weapon is 2 iron fists on medium pistons. It has 2 battlepacks for power, a large tank and 2 medium tanks for air, and 2 NPC Fasts for drive. It ended up looking like an experimental China bot, but I'm ok with that. Unlike Kessler, this is utter sh** at fighting, but I don't think you guys expect my bots to do well in combat as is.

The solid blue chassis with the decals isn't great-looking, but I'm liking the rest here.

This is Drums on the Wheel, my first real attempt at a competent extender bot. Dare I say, it came out damn well. 2 NPCF motors for drive, 2 flats for weapon, 2 battlepacks+2 ants for battery, and the top and bottom panels are all steel. The name, while it sounds extremely weird, does have an origin behind it, specifically it's the song I was listening to while making this. Probably sh** in combat, but now y'all can't say I can't make extenderbots, so uhh... yeah. Take that, random person.

Serves as a good place to check up on the maximum of 3 bots posted every other week

Polkadot Spider is one of my favorite hammers on here now. It has a level of cohesion I don't see that often on RA2

Prince of Velocity has an awkward shape, but I'm guessing the weapon doesn't leave many options. Should be a fun bot to watch in tourneys if it doesn't end up spikeballing for 3 minutes.
