If I used HP Z teks then it culdn't be a MW
Make the chassis 1/2 the size, one supervolt, DSA, control board, take out a Disc and you should be able to make it MW with HPZ. They spin up to twice as fast , which equals twice as damage potential.

Instead of just telling him to do things, why not also tell him what he has done well?

Nate, you have used good batteries (although the pink is not needed) and have chosen good wheels and weapons. Your chassis space management is quite good, too. Keep it up. (:

yes it does, it's the_doolster

Forgive me, but what do y'all think when I say what would happen if you decreased the chassis size and mounted the drive motors on extenders?

Nate Tech · « **Reply #28 on:** October 04, 2011, 01:21:59 PM »

I think that's a good idea, but it makes the motors vulnerable

Correct, but I was just thinking whether it would be worth it.

I NEED SOMEONE MORE EXPERIENCED

Hi.

I don't think it's a good idea, because the extender work to get all 3 motors on w+ the baseplate will be heavier than the 3 baseplates.

Gazea2 · « **Reply #31 on:** October 04, 2011, 01:34:22 PM »

But remember, you save weight with a lighter chassis. Let's not start a discussion.

We could just point him towards Minesweeper. That's where that bot seems to be heading...

Mr. AS · « **Reply #33 on:** October 04, 2011, 01:53:14 PM »

You don't need that random pink battery.

Nate Tech · « **Reply #34 on:** October 04, 2011, 02:14:20 PM »

Ok, here's the final version:

I had to remove 1 razor but now it's as powerful as the original

Ok, here's the final version:

A bot is never a "final version". There's always changes to be made/experimented with.
You could probably shink the chassis a -little bit- more to get those baseplate connectors to be squished in. ~~Stacked blacks?~~ NOAP

Nate Tech · « **Reply #36 on:** October 04, 2011, 02:24:16 PM »

I can't get blacks to stack, and is there any way to shrink the chassis without having to re do everything?

Somebody · « **Reply #37 on:** October 04, 2011, 02:41:42 PM »

Nope. And keep trying on the blacks. Make sure you have a little bit of space around them to work with.

Scrap Daddy · « **Reply #38 on:** October 04, 2011, 03:06:48 PM »

holy crap so much terrible advice.

I would check out, like what sm said, https://gametechmods.com/RA2wiki/index.php?title=Minesweeper because thats pretty much what you are going to loook to do. If you shrink the chassis even more and if you want you could put the side motors on like minesweeper to maybe save more weight you should be able to get that last razor.

dont let them tell you how to build your bots either. If you want three face spinners, use 3 face spinners.

Sup Nate.
