King Mager's Stock showcase
« on: July 24, 2010, 05:57:43 PM »
hey guys, ive been looking around the forums for a while and saw alot of good bots, so i finally decided that i'll put up my bots. they probably aren't as good, but i'm starting fresh from RA2.


The first bot: Infinite Destruction


Its a middle weight pop-up.
it does ok on some fights but not all of them, i could barely fit all of those components into the chasis, but i made it work.





Here is the battleshot.





are there any other ways i can improve it, besides having less space in the chasis?

Not on a MW dude. Too much weight wasted.

Um looks decent. Maybe a shallower wedge.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

No, that would be someevilguy. :P


Some Guy would be... what?  The father of you two?


The popup looks good, but take a look at Noodle and NFX's showcases; they both recently made similar bots that are pretty much as good as that design can get.  First thing I would try to do is beef up the drive.

wouldn't the evil twin of somestrangeguy be somenormalguy? because they would consider each other evil even if us outsiders viewed only one of them that way.

sorry for the off topic, nice pop-up for someone just starting a showcase :D you should upgrade the drive to HP Z-teks.

He actually had one before:

I guess he forgot about it so he started a new one.
