I couldnt put the Nifty in because it was JUST too tall for the Electronics board to fit on top of it...but to be honest, the Supervolt gives me more power AND uses more Chassis space anyway, so never mind....as for the T stuff, Just used that idea.

Actually, LW Rammers only need 2 pinks.

Clickbeetle seems to think they're fine, and I trust him.

2 pinks have about the same power as a nifty anyways...

Yeah they are HP's, that's why I Figured a Supervolt would be good.

what armor does it use? I would also drop the 2 outer razor tips and add single sided ice picks to the sides of the extenders for better protection for your chassis and the extenders holding the razor tips.

It uses the Special Bugged Aluminium Armor...and good Idea aobut the Picks :D

I just finished Making another Heavyweight Robot.I tried using other forms of weaponry OTHER than just ramming spikes.

I named the Robot 'Firion' after the Character Firion from Final Fantasy II (though I remember him better from Dissidia). I named him this due to Firion being known as the 'Master Over 8 kinds of Weapons'...and of course, I've fitted 4 different types of Weapon on the robot Lolol.

Sometimes a million weapon types aren't a good thing.

Minimize empty space
Build to weight limit
blah blah blah

Lightshock16 · « **Reply #92 on:** August 23, 2010, 08:02:43 PM »

Lol I know. I just wanted to make a Robot that Didnt use just Ramming spikes as it's weapon. I wanted to use different types of weaponry...I've tried it out. the Pickaxe Is probably the Main weapon, as It really Crushes down on the enemies, Dealing quite a fair bit of damage...I'd say the Flipper is it's Least Effective Weapon, but even that can still be used pretty well.

Lightshock16 · « **Reply #93 on:** August 26, 2010, 08:23:43 PM »

Okay, so far I've made Two Heavyweights (New Blood and Firion), and a Lightweight (CuBOY'D). I've now created a Middleweight Robot...but I actually made a purpose for this one. some of you may remember my MS Paint robot 'High Voltage'...I thought I'd try and make a Stock Duplicate of it...here it is.

A few notes on the Robot:

1. The weight Ballasts on the front are there so that when the robot is tipped, It'll fall down into a proper Self-Righting position.
2. I chose Two Nifty's Rather than One Supervolt as a weight of balancing the Robot's weight.
3. there is no Caster because I wanted the robot to have as Low a Ground clearance as possible...and it doesnt affect the robots Movement in the slightest.
4. It's shaped so HOPEFULLY it cant stay on his side, and if it's on it's back, the Spinning Blade can make it move till it flips back onto either it's wheels or onto its back so it can self-right.

Somebody · « **Reply #94 on:** August 26, 2010, 08:32:26 PM »

Casters don't help a robot's movement whatsoever. They are really only good as impenetrable armor.

Lightshock16 · « **Reply #95 on:** August 26, 2010, 08:35:17 PM »

That's How I felt as well. It just got in the way and ruined the usefulness of the flipper. now there's no Ground clearance, and it worked quite well against Devil.

Lightshock's robots are always hilarious.
Can I suggest a possible re-build, to where you start off with a smaller chassis?
Because I think you can fit a lit more weapons on that if the bot has less empty space.

Lightshock16 · « **Reply #97 on:** August 26, 2010, 09:17:05 PM »

what do you mean by hilarious? o.o
erm...I'll see. to be honest It's handling the robots fairly well...the only reason I keep losing in King of the Hill stuff Is cause I keep forgetting to move LOL.

If you start with a smaller chassis, you end up with more weight at your disposal, in the long run.

King of the Hill mode is just ridiculous.

(Well... In my opinion)

1. Hmph. T^T

2. Good point...I might, but to be honest I'm quite happy with it, plus If I have a smaller Chassis, that Saw blade will be harder to put in...plus, I was intentionally trying to make it like my drawing, so I dont really want to modify it.

3. True, very true. It's normally my own stupidity that makes me lose it.
