Not a showcase,  I'm a latecomer.  ;)

Seems like some of you guys like to critique bots, here's some more for you.
I will try to self-analyze them, you can tell me if I'm right/wrong/disabled.


My first bots,  well not my first,  let's say they're the first I didn't scrap.  OK.


Mordeth


Too much wasted space, therefore no weight left for more/better weapons.
Overall a very uninspired design, named after "Mordeth13" of YouTube infamy.


Pyramedi-evil


Still some wasted space, weak drive motors and I couldn't get 4 of the burst
motors mounted without an angle on the fourth one.  o_O


Puntosour


Not so much wasted space (I know, still some) and It's probably what you
peeps refer to as "over-powered".  But it does have a working ShRe-mech!


Tankard


Originally designed with tank tracks in mind. (hence the warped chassis)
I soon realized just how bad the tracks were and swapped last minute.
The movement speed is really lacking and the rear spike "cheats" through the
armour plate at the back.  :(

nice looking bots, like the originality on some, appreciate the space management but these appear to be DSL in which case should really be in the DSL showcases section (this place is for stock creations) it is really nice to see another west Aussie however :-D

Always remember to show the wight and armor of your robots.
The rear hammer cutting trough the rear ramplate is OK, because you can make a hole for the hammer in real life and as long as it doesnt cut the batteries.

Woops,  my bad.  :blackeye_smily:

Thanks for the input, my new and improved bot is in the DSL section. :arrow:
