just about to test it :) if it doesn't work i'll go back to 2 pinks and try and get a 10cm blade to run down the front.

we need some AW specialist among us :O i was thinking about about making a small AW/BW/LW AI pack. I might upload a new video sometime between now and tonight (aus time).

i do take video requests if you want to see specific ones fight. i have more then i have posted but they are more generic like rammers and sit and spinners.

Nice AW,i like your designs Ianh.

thanks, sadly the new Wammers i built are too fast and flip over.. ah well here are some new funky versions of my AW's to inspire:

Ice pick protects the extender on bottom 2 and adds a fair bit to the coolness of the bots. all plastic and 2 pinks.

Stagfish · « **Reply #103 on:** July 18, 2010, 12:14:29 PM »

Isnt the front a bit exposed on the last 2?

ianh05 · « **Reply #104 on:** July 18, 2010, 12:20:07 PM »

It is, sadly i can't face the ice pick down and i haven't been able to get anything else angled up the front.

good news now! something for somebody

:

Both plastic. 1 Has longer reach but takes more time to spin up to top speed.

wow, a AW that actually does something. nice.

Is one pink enough? And for SnSing, I think that if you turned those drive motors 90 degrees to get a better turning radius

How come one arm on AW SnS 1 has two extenders and the other has one?

Find a way to turn the motors 90 degrees to the left to create a wider turning radius.

I like these ants. As I said before, it would be nice to run a tournament with all your ants to see which has the most effective design, then enter the next stock CombatAnts with it

Awww I was rooting for Pocket Watch. XD

ianh05 · « **Reply #115 on:** July 21, 2010, 03:22:59 AM »

lol Can Opener surprised me when i first tested it, i think there's a future in AW face spinners :P

time for a new AW... Unicorn!

yet to test in battle but it looks promising, 2 pinks and plastic armor.

Pwnator · « **Reply #116 on:** July 21, 2010, 03:36:27 AM »

Speaking of which, you can lower Can Opener's weapon (90-degree baseplate -> 20cm with APs facing down -> RAD - > FS). Not sure if that makes it better, though.

ianh05 · « **Reply #117 on:** July 21, 2010, 04:11:06 AM »

lowered the weapon :)

i beat Thorny Devil with me driving it so it can't be bad :P

JoeBlo · « **Reply #118 on:** July 21, 2010, 06:07:49 AM »

F---K YEAH can opener.. thats the one I was going for

TeamXtreemer · « **Reply #119 on:** July 21, 2010, 09:14:57 AM »

Nice, Face spinners have a good damage ratio thing.
