Is it just me or are the wedges uneven?

That aside, it's quite a cool looking popup. Good job. :D

No, he's right, the wedges and ramplates are slightly to one side, just because of the way the Snappers fit in between the DDTs.

More snapper loaded HS action here, this time a heavyweight (forgot the add the weight to the splash, it's 795.7). After a discussion about some HS's, not sure where, the topic of Sage's old 48-mace HS cropped up. He told me it wasn't terribly practical, so I decided to try and build a 48-razor HS. And it's worked! Not sure how well it'll do against the more accepted 36-mace HS's, though.

Hey, there you go. Nicely done.

I would appreciate if you could make your splashes a little larger. The way it is now you could make it your signature...

It's hard to see.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

Thanks, Sage. I'll make my splashes bigger, it's just this one was so damn wide to begin with.

Just thought I'd showcase my entry for GK's BTTB tournament. 798.6 or thereabouts. 16 Irons, 2 Stacked BlackVolts, 3 DDT's for the flipper, 4 Z-Tek's for the weaponry, DSA. Outwedges Neglected Waterbug, and gutrips almost anything. Even HS's =P

Say goodbye to my bot's chances. It'll just pull off a Rage III. XD

Anyway, does your bot have problems in steering? Usually 4 bursted VSes tend to tip over without wide enough side support.

It's fine when it's going forwards, somehow. It just tends to tip over a bit when it reverses and turns while the discs are going. Did get beached on its side a few times during testing, so I put the small extenders sticking out the sides, that seems to prevent that happening now.

I decided to have another try at snapper loading, and managed to get myself a one-snapper HS. Only downside, apart from the plastic armour and the low battery life, is that it does have a tendency to randomly drop a Havok Bomb on itself at any point during the match. But more often than not it's relatively smooth running.

That kind of reminds me of a MW Chernobyl.  Nice job.


Also, when you look at it upside down, the name on top says HS.  :cool:

It's actually symmetrical! :O  I would have never thought of a setup like that (that's because I usually check if it works on HWs). Nice. :D
