It's both, actually. 1 black is the minimum to power 2 DDTs, but that only applies to short-ranged bursts (like popups) due to the small radius of attack.

Hammers however, have nearly all the weight concentrated on the end, meaning it requires more power to fire at the same speed as a popup with the same amount of weapons.

Try taking off a razor from each burst, and get rid of the spike strips so you can stack another black in (if you can't, just redo the chassis).

Instead of attaching your hammers onto the baseplate, put them on 0-degree anchors so it can reach further without having to extend the arms.

Liek zis:





Except mine's on 45-degree anchors. If you want reach, go for 0-degree anchors.

Kinda like that.

Also, don't follow my srimech system. That doesn't work consistently. Try this instead:




If it still doesn't work, try adding the wedge burst power to your srimech. If not, at least it won't get immobilized (unlike Sage's hammer). :P

Only some of them kick ass. :P

And I've been playing RA2 for more than a year, so building skill evolves over time. :D

I've been playing RA2 for a year or so, maybe? The first thing I tried to do was make a flipper with pistons.

I've been on this forum for about 7 months and I have played the game RA2 for about 9 months. I consider myself an average builder, so don't get worked up about not being JoeBlo, Sage, Pwn, Inf or Pys standard. As Pwn said, your building ability gets better and better with each bot that you make, each thing that you stack and every bot that you showcase.

Hang in there and show us some great bots. ;)

Ok, that's good. Anyway, I used to think that axle mounts made wheels drive as well. xD

You can use axle mounts for a 4 wheeled bot with 2WD, like I did with my 360 replica in DSL.

In theory, you could use almost everything, provided you know how to use them.
