Exostacking casters isn't difficult. You can see Caster Armoured Popups quite often. But not too bad. I'd try to get DSA on either of them, though. Are they invertible?

Actually I don't even know if it counts as exostacking since it's placed half outside the chassis normally as if it was a regular component being placed inside the chassis. xD Just trying to have a little fun.

Both invertible...chassis are definitely airtight on both, so the only way to get DSA on them would be to use 6 razors and a snowplow on the first one (the snowplow also requires an extender and is a hindrance to the spinner's reach), and replacing the end maces with razors and getting rid of the caster on the second one. Neither really seem like appealing options.

Edit: I already knew the second bot looked like Alter Ego II, but I just realized, the first one looks like Death by Purple 3. And here I was thinking I'd made something a bit more unique. :P

First one's not as much of a DBP3 clone as you'd think. DBP3 didn't have a caster, wasn't invertible, but had a burst enhanced HPZ instead. And the chassis was a bit less square-y. =)

Here's that Quark clone that inf wanted. Just found it lying around, but it had some cool battleshots and stuff...




I'll stack that Snapper into the Nifty. SOMEDAY.

Apparently you can make flail SnS in stock...sooo...




Same one transformed into a Trinity SnS.




At least I know what I'm gonna name one of them after...there's a certain pony whose name starts with "Tri"....

They're both invertible, or at least I hope they are. This is what the collision mesh on the first one looks like:



DSA on all three.

Because his bots are mainly bleh? Or that there are more than 5 better builders out there? Both are pretty applicable.

I think he left out a 2 before the 5. Top 5 might be pushing it, FOTEPX. >.>

Shoutouts to Joe and his theory on taking into account speed when testing for flipping power on this one.





Might be rebuilt with a Rupting flipper. It has no trouble flipping HS OOTA, but not faster bots like popups because it can't react to the opponent entering the smartzone fast enough and doesn't really flip with the "sweetspot". And before you deprecate me for the servos, they used less space than Snapper2s and



[that's the same bot, just a different skin]

I like the idea, I just think you would be better off with two ddts and no servos.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GEICE







I forgot the weight BUT IT'S A MW. Meanwhile...



WHY WON'T IT WORK (this is NC's exact .bot file where I removed the motors and tried to reattach the RAD in the same position)

TICK WITH A BLACK. FINALLY.

Why not ditch the blade for speedier drive, though?

Also, sweet spots like that are hard to come by. Such as being able to place a large caster near the top of the chassis rather than the middle, even if it's on the same bot.

I'm not sure if it needs it; without the blade a bit of the 140cm is left exposed, although I suppose the faster drive could act as a pseudo-blade by keeping the opponent from reaching the extender with the faster drive.





I think I'll stick with your suggestion though.

I still haven't remade it realistic. xD

Brilliant setup on the MW.  Looks like a really nasty bot.

Some of these things...they all look the same to me.











The second one is pretty much Wee VS with a ton of extender work and a Nifty, but DSA.

Everyone needs one of these. :D



Looks invertible.



No popups will be getting to this chassis!

  • 6 Casters
  • 1 Ram Plate + a 60 cm Blade hiding under it (both could be traded for another Black)

Good ExtenderWork. I wonder which of the two LW VS's can beat mine?
