I needed Snapper Overkill to get evrything in there. I'll see what I can do about the fail weapons.

Use S-II's.

Done and done. DSA armour.

Sorry G.K, keep forgetting. 2 of them are for the wedges, the other 2 are for the 4th and 5th FS's. The gap is too narrow to fit a S-II into, so I can't fit one in. Sorry.

IDEA: What do you guys think about me changing all the FS's to HS's?

Nah, keep the FS's. Looks OK, except try to give your HS's longer reach.

I know. It's meant to look like the mutant superhuman child of the unstoppable force and the immovable object : p

Yeah, it has 2 blacks. Gonna try and get a third one in there if i can shave the weight off.

I'm guessing you have 1 HP on each of the Snappers.
You could easily mount 2 HPs on 1 Snapper.

What I would do is try to put 2 extenders off each snapper then EFFE 2 motors on. Then you shave off a lot of weight snapperwise.

Don't put just a single razor tip on an FS. It ruins wedges with bouncyness.
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

Naryar, not everything is DSL. Not everything has ultra-super-mega-death speed, so get used to it.

It's a Face Spinner + HS combo, NOT a gut-ripper, so IDK what you're talking about.

Ever saw what happened to slow FS like Hellbringer, and ever wondered why fast FS like Billy Goat Gruffiest SCv4 are good ?

You need at least 6WD on this in order for it to go under HS/SnS/etc.

Also, wedged FS (if not ALL FS) work best when gut-ripping.

Have you ever wondered why Minesweeper can take on rammers even with a considerable amount of weapon handicap and the absence of a wedge? That's because the motors lift rammers up and chew up the undersides. FSes are meant for gut-ripping, not frontal assault.

As for the HS part, it is clear that 6 irons isn't even enough to chew up a HW. Surely they are meant to hit bots only when they have a clear shot at the belly.

So if you aren't intending it to be a gut-ripper, then you're doing it wrong.


@ Nary - Actually, Hellbringer can still take on some HS (BBEANS 5). JD just had terrible luck because he faced SC in 2 tourneys. But yeah, it could be built better. XD

Here's a generic 14 razor popup. DSA armour and 2 Supervolt's for power. Don't know what to blow the last bit of weight on though.

Try putting some wedges and frontal armour on if possible.

There isn't enough space to fit an Axle extender, let alone a Baseplate Connector or Snapper II.

yeah you definitely need a wedge. all those razors won't mean anything if you can't get under stuff.
