Sorry Venko, it is not stacked, it just looks like it. The anchor is under the black battery.

Anubis and Chopper look great. I remember Mastiff from the World Championships when Chaos 2 tried to put it in the pit by flipping it, and it ended up pushing it out of the way and falling into the pit. I have made a few replicas, but they aren't very good, and I won't show them here unless you want me to. They are of Rammstein, and Backlash, and but I don't know how to skin, so they don't have skins.

Naryar: 3 Things,
1. I probably will switch back to the small wedge when I get Starcore
2. The Flippers on EMERGENCY were off in 2 hits, and the bot is invertible anyways
3. The pole spike is at the back.
Also, I have learned to not hit one of the bumped up places on the sides of the moving Tabletop arena, because I accidentaly ran into one, and the whole bottom row of spikes (It broke off at the T-Connector), plus the spike and extender on the Snapper, all broke off in ONE HIT:shock:. I was so lucky that it was the championship.

This was probably the easiest battle EVER!:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:  Edit: This bot also has DSA , just with Titanium Skin.

Here is Spike Again 5,. with 36 iron spikes, 1 70 cm pole spike, 4-wheel HPZ-tek drive, and smaller, lighter, SlipperBottom wheels.   Edit: The pointy tip spike below the other spikes is attached to the Snapper. I decided to put a spike on instead of a wedge. Thanks for the idea Naryar:biggrin:

Here is Talon 5, the newest Talon.   Yes, I still use a wedge.

I am completely rebuilding Talon. The wedge has always worked out right because the hammer arms were never too long. I put a ramplate for protection on the wedge, and the hammers could never reach the other bot. I ended up turning Talon into a rammer for that fight because the hammer didn't reach far enough. Talon 5 is iin the works, and Spike Again 4 is coming along.
By the way ROBOSH4RK, congratulations about Fuerza.

SA4 and Talon 5 will be done soon. They would be much better if someone taught me how to stack batteries.:x
50th post for me:biggrin:

Here is my new incarnation of my bot Talon, Talon 4 Talon one had only the middle hammer with a square extender, Talon2 had all three, but they launched from straight up in the air, Talon 3 put the hammers where the are now, and Talon 4 changed the motors to HP-ZTeks and made the hammer arms circular.    Good:Large damage from hammer, hammers act as a srimech, fast, maneuverable, side spikes to keep from getting stuck Bad:hammer lifts front when launched, back is unprotected. Naryar: I probably will download Starcore 1 first, get really used to it, then download Starcore 3 over it. One question, when I download Starcore 3 after Starcore 1 or 2, are all of my Starcore 1 or 2 bot deleted? Flying_Chao:I am working on Spike Again 4.

I found this bot in my "Import Bot" Folder. I don't even remember building it, but I have never downloaded any. I know how to use DSA, but not battery stacking. It is Titanium, and the wheels are the large wheels because the I wanted the bot to be invertible, which it is. I will rebuild it with DSA though, make it thinner, use the iron spikes, but the wheels will probably be something like N-12's or Slipperbottoms so it will be able to climb hills without getting stuck
Edit: I will get Starcore soon, but I will probably get 3 just to remember the good old days when you would build an 800 pound bot that can't beat a LW

Here is my new HW rammer (792.4). There are 15 iron spikes and 4 single sided pickaxes. It runs on only 1 black battery, with 4 HPZ-Teks for drive, but somehow it lasts. It also has 1 spike at the back that is used to keep the bot from getting stuck.

TorrFac: Thanks
My new rambot will be up soon.
Edit: TorrFac: why should I keep it a secret?

Either way it supports all of the HPZ-Teks  The clock says 1:52 left, so it lasted long enough to kill 3 EMERGENCYs. It got flipped once, but the parts of the tri-bars that stick out of the top spun and flipped it back over. Edit: I also learned that it works fine when some spikes fall off.

I already checked the ram plates, and they are not touching the ground.
I am working on a rammer with a ton of spikes on the front. I need to find a place to get WinRar that doesn't cost 29 bucks.
Edit: also, the fight would never go 3 minutes anyway, because it kills everything quickly.

Which WinRar do I use, is it free, and how do I use it. Do I even need it for this patch or DSL 2.0?

The wedge in the back gets under everyone because of the tires, but it sometimes gets stuck going up hills, so it loses only when that happens. I have tried it against many bots, and it owns against ALL.
Venko:I will check to see if the ramplate is touching
