Make sure all of your razors are facing the same way. I typically like the flat side to be what hits the opponent, but others like the edge. idk up to you. Looks good though, but you really need to get a new skin for those black extenders, the red one you put on there is pretty ugly.

Looks decent. As Sage says make all of the razors share a rotation.

How does it fare vs HS?

its probably a static rack so there's nothing he can do about the razors

I've been playing RA2 for nearly 11 years. I've been building some great bots from my and your standards. I've dedicated myself to build some crazy hybrids for one of those years to make my life a whole lot more interesting. But now... it is time to bring my best hybrid to date. No hybrid in my stock showcase has come close what I have just created. With that said, this will separate the men from the boys. You have been warned. But now, (Ladies and) Gentlemen, it is time I present to you...

And that will be the last time I ever try to make anything epic sounding again. For real right now, thoughts on it?

Looks impressive. Is it any good in combat?

I would probably argue that the HS could be angled and the FS could be a bit further back, but that still looks nasty. Not sure if the popup and hammer do anything, though.

Reier · « **Reply #787 on:** September 23, 2015, 09:10:44 PM »

you could always be lazy and say a design like this is a HS/VS/FS :P

but yeah i already explowded i couldnt handle it

dunno about the popup part but the hammer should work if it's long enough. cant tell if it is from the pictures though

Holy sh**, you built something besides a clone of someone else's bot. Way to go.

not really

I'm in love with the asymmetricality of this bot

RedAce · « **Reply #793 on:** October 16, 2015, 01:09:17 PM »

Anyone familiar with Deathwatch 8:15? (I'm not going to search everywhere in the archive thread for the original photo by the way. That would take ages for me.) You know? Clickbeetle's series of MW VS? I would expect some of you to, mainly those hardcore vets, but I wouldn't imagine many new members to remember. But anyway, this bot in particular is a favorite of mine. Why? Well, if you look at the smart zone and the Snapper2, they serve the purpose having the vertical discs attack any bot that gets underneath it. So if you haven't figured the primary focus out yet, it counter-attacks popups, or whatever other type that usually takes advantage of it. How come people haven't caught on to this yet? It's brilliant.

Wait, where am I going with this? Oh right, I wanted to make one of these into a lightweight.

248.0 kg, DSA, 1 Nifty, the rest should be visible.

The result? From my testing with ASAI, it works rather well. Sure, it's unstable and flops like a drunk guy with a giant head (cookie for who can come up with a better analogy than this one) when the snapper2 fires, but it eats popups like nothing else and sine Popups in the LW class usually have next to no external armor, it makes mincemeat of them.

No this isn't my DDDDD entry. Just to answer those who are curious.

Try an FS/Hammer for the frontal destruction of an FS with the downward crash of a hammer.

I promised that I would do this hybrid, but I never got around to doing it. I finally decided that I would build this one since this idea has been floating around my head for quite a while. Better late than never I suppose, but here it is:

796.7 kg, 2 SuperVolts, DSA, decent wedges. Now I just wish there were some tourney around right now to enter this in.

Sage · « **Reply #797 on:** October 30, 2015, 02:01:50 PM »

Awesome idea. Slap some razors on the hammer instead of irons and youre good to go.

RedAce · « **Reply #798 on:** November 06, 2015, 07:20:46 AM »

Got bored last night, so I made a hammer.

Some of you in the Skype chat seen this, but I thought I should show the rest with some victories. I thought it wasn't that good at first, but I'm pretty surprised by how much it works. The wedges are pretty meh, but it's still pretty good otherwise.

Reier · « **Reply #799 on:** November 06, 2015, 10:31:40 AM »

if i remember right bracket wedge has the same weight but more hp as E-wedge

got a good look to it
