I've been fiddling around in stock a bit more, so I decided to make a showcase for.
Here's Mr. Doom Bringer:

Turns EMERGENCY into mince meat pretty easily too. Also, Armour is DSA.
Yes, I know the batt setup is kinda crap too.

Less empty space please

Building to the weight limit is more important than space management. Figure out how to get it to 800 kgs first. Add another spinner, perhaps. 99% of stock HW HS's have four spinners.

The weapon setup is good though, as are the component choices (they just need to be arranged better).

2 new 'bots:

1st one's name is Kitty, and the 2nd is :)
Both DSA. And I know there both underwieght. :P
Sorry for huge pictures, I forgot how to crop images in Paint.net.

WAY too messy to be good, you also might want a wedge on the side hammer

Enigm@ · « **Reply #5 on:** December 29, 2010, 02:07:46 PM »

Yeah, I was wondering if it would need a wedge or not.

There's still a LOT to be improved here young one...
I suggest you watch sage's tips and tricks videos to learn some helpfull glitches that would vastly improve those bots.

Enigm@ · « **Reply #7 on:** December 29, 2010, 02:27:25 PM »

I already did though. :P

Well watch them again!
Have you ever seen that scene from a clockwork orange? Because that is what I'm gonna do to you

Enigm@ · « **Reply #9 on:** December 29, 2010, 02:37:09 PM »

No, I haven't seen A Clockwork Orange.

I like the 1st one, but if youve got castor armour, you wont really need the ramplates, or are they to assist the weapon

I was originally going to put wedges where the Rams were, but that made it even moar under weight.

Velocity EVO · « **Reply #12 on:** December 29, 2010, 03:02:34 PM »

I see. good point there

Maybe add a few castors on the side incase the weapon gets smashed off

Scorpion · « **Reply #13 on:** December 29, 2010, 03:14:28 PM »

Sigh, twice I wrote the most amazing bits of advice ever, and twice I accidentaly deleted it, why must it always rain on me?
Anyway, If I were you i'd leave it wedgeless all it'll do is leave you more open to popups and/or being flipped.

Other than that, the best advice I can give you without hurting my eyes writing an essay long reply again is, lurk moar

Here's the simplest tip you'll ever need:

If you're bursting something, put as many components on the snapper as possible without compromising the design. Too few bursted components on a snapper and you're just wasting weight.

Enigm@ · « **Reply #15 on:** August 04, 2011, 03:17:32 PM »

M-M-M-M-M-M-MONSTER BUMP !!!
Any ways, this showcase is in serious need of an update, so here ya go:

And the insidez:

2 blacks, 7 razors, 8 maces.
I was trying to make a not-so-generic juggler. You guise can be the judge of that. (Also through in some pop-up elements for the lulz)

No comments ? ok...

Not a bad idea at all. Can be improved though...What snappers did you use for the stacking/drive? And the wedges? To me it looks like you used only 4 green snappers and one blue? So I can't figure out how to help you condense in that regard...

Otherwise...you should just use as few snappers as possible, because you have an overload PLUS the servo. Find ways to save space and weight, and then we can talk about upgrades to the design, without sacrificing the "Enigma feel" to it. (Avoiding use of word originality).

I like it.
