oooo I actually like that HS. Is it completely invertible? Cause I've had bots like that where it can move, but not very well.

The juggler is very nicely done, but yea, wedges are a problem on jugglers because all the weight is in the back. I find maces to be a little less effective on jugglers because they have more concussion than piercing. Maybe try razors on top and irons on the edges?

It tends to slides around at first, but it gains some grip when the weapon motors fully spin. So yeah, it's not fully invertible, but it moves decently for a HS.

I almost cried BFE until I figured out the setup on the HS. Also, I find that more baseplate components = better wedges, so complex bots will always have a tough time with wedginess. Very well done though.

Hehehe. The Snapper II position probably gave that away. XD

As for the wedginess, Wipeout has great wedges (and those are blue wedges), and the drive's also bursted. But I'll try to find a way to attach the weapon motors to anchors and see how it fares. :D

lollolomgwtfbbq DP!

FINALLY! After 2 months, I finally got the chassis for the new Fury:

And damn, does it pwn. :D

:OOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Wait.....HPZs or Zteks?

The rear's motor attachment is obvious, but i don't get how you attached the other one ?

Reier · « **Reply #404 on:** January 26, 2010, 12:29:29 PM »

Maybe like the original Fury...? XD

Sage · « **Reply #405 on:** January 26, 2010, 03:32:00 PM »

So one side has 9 and the other has 6? Cool.

Reier · « **Reply #406 on:** January 26, 2010, 03:34:56 PM »

Oh, I didn't notice. I though both had 9. XD

So I'm guessing to secret to it is chassis height? I tried replicating it before but gave up and made a crappy clone lol.

Pwnator · « **Reply #408 on:** January 27, 2010, 02:56:24 AM »

Yeah. SC did state that in order to get the clone right, the chassis needs to be exactly 27.9kgs. So most of the weight saved was by shrinking the Snapper II section and its chassis height. Took me 30+ tries, but it was worth it. XD

Isn't an asymetric double spinner bad for stability ?

Pwnator · « **Reply #410 on:** January 27, 2010, 07:46:30 AM »

Not really. The original one already has a tendency to steer away from the center anyway. This one's also wonky, but only to a lesser degree.

[Edit] Crap. OHKO from Seppuku 3. I REALLY need to work on my driving.

Wakawakawakawakawaka DP!

SD tried a MW HT clone before and didn't fare well, so I tried my own and this is what i came up with:

Breaking Wheel - DSA, CB stacked in black, and you can see the rest. It performs decently, given that blue wedges suck. The only problem is that it Havoks when it turns around and when the wedges hit the wall hard. Oh well, still looks cool. :D

Virus Bomb · « **Reply #412 on:** January 30, 2010, 03:44:46 PM »

WTF man I was just about to do a MW HT clone! It looks nice though.

Pwnator · « **Reply #413 on:** January 30, 2010, 08:35:14 PM »

No one's stopping you from building one.

I love seeing tiny MW bots like that, and I have no clue why. It's the reason I built Solaris actually.

Pwnator · « **Reply #415 on:** January 30, 2010, 09:07:58 PM »

Yeah. MWs are just a tad larger than LWs, but can be almost as destructive as HWs when built right. XD

Pwnator · « **Reply #416 on:** February 06, 2010, 11:02:05 AM »

YAY

2 Nifties, 1 tank (that sounded terrible lol), 22 axes, 2 ice picks, 2 100cm blades, Snapper2 wedges.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #417 on:** February 06, 2010, 11:06:25 AM »

well now its a good think I went for Lil Dog as I was nearly going to make a robot like that :P (hence the exes on my first version)

still a much better job then I had planned :P

Sage · « **Reply #418 on:** February 06, 2010, 11:07:29 AM »

Nice! But how does it fare? I know that those piston bots aren't that great if they are just pushing the other bot with the piston.

Pwnator · « **Reply #419 on:** February 06, 2010, 11:15:26 AM »

I originally AI'ed it with OmniRam but it get flanked too easily, so I reverted back to Omni. But it can still dismantle and KO RPB, The Troll and Tempest Exterminator in less than 20 seconds. :D
