Not if I have something to say about it- if I can clinch it, my second tournament title shall be mine! ![]() (And yes, Kronic is indeed British, hailing from Beer, a town in Devon) 6008
Tournament Archives / Re: Replica Wars 3-Splash, Brackets and Videos« on: June 05, 2011, 01:28:00 PM »I just don`t want to meet Warrior in the final. With NFX on my side we could do some damage to it but the shell is protecting it quite well I guess. Kronic has no external armor so CSII will do major damage to you but then Kronic will flip it OOTA. Then Delldog comes in and finishes you off.Not so sure about the "Major Damage" part- remember that Kronic's front and sides are sloped, so spinner hits will probably only inflict glancing blows there. Even still, that's 5mm Titanium armour on Kronic, so it'll take a little while to cause any concernable damage, particularly with only 5 Beater Bars, by which time Kronic will most likely be doing "The Highland Fling" on Corkscrew Two. Which then leaves DellDog- provided it spins, it could in theory do some nasty damage if it hits the flat back plate. However, Kronic can turn on the spot quickly, so I think with a little luck, Delldog will suffer the same fate as Corkscrew. But the final slot? For that, my money's on Explosion. Not sure about its wedge quality, but I do know that those flippers are powerful- if he gets under me, it'll be curtains. Unless of course I go for one of the spinners first, let the other one wear down Explosion, before getting round the side to hopefully toss it away. So yes, hopefully it'll all work out. This is one tournament that I definitely plan on winning ![]() 6009

Although Warrior is indeed a good design, it lacks protection against wedges around the back. Therefore, if I can get it from behind as it's attacking another opponent, I might be able to get under it and flip it out of the Arena, before repeating with the others. 6010

Unless of course you count Dead Metal driving off the podium after it in the Sumo, but still :PI did like Mute. I like small and compact robots, rather than large flimsy ones.So one of the appeals behind Chaos 2, then? :P 6013

Modifications / Re: The DSL 3.0 preview thread« on: June 05, 2011, 08:00:42 AM »Ah, that's OK then. A much bigger Vladiator would look great in the arena, slamming lighter opponents around like a pinball on steriodsWhich reminds me...now that we have Shish Kabot, will Vladiator be removed, or will it stay?Vladiator will stay; it will be the SHW on a team with Shish-Kabot, a poky MW I haven't decided on yet, and Vlad the Impaler. ![]() Got sidetracked by a bunch of other stuff. It's been like 90% done for several months. Honestly though it looks exactly the same as the old Firestorm, it's just a full HW now and is more powerful to match.Ah, that sounds good. Although, is the back raised with the wheels exposed around the back like the real robot now? That rounded back on the old replica always annoyed me for some reason. 6015

My guess is something to do with it eliminating Plunderbird 2 in the Gauntlet. 6016

But mind you, it did provide this little gem against Turbulence in the 2006 UK Championships- But personally, I don't see anything wrong with Mute. Sure its flipper wasn't designed as well as it could be, but I thought it was a pretty cool design. 6019
