if i remember right bracket wedge has the same weight but more hp as E-wedge
The Bracket wedge weighs 16 kg but is stronger than the E-Wedge.  So no, I can't use it sadly.

Don't need 4 razors, 3 is fine. With extra weight you can use bracket wedge or even another plow cause you'll have a few more kgs you can use to add an extender

I've had such a fascination with hammers lately.



Unfortunately, it isn't very good.  The hammer breaks off too often and can't really reach far enough for the chassis.  Might use a 140cm extender and change the maces to razors to extend the hammer.  It's pretty stable as it is though.

If reach is an issue, just use 140cms and make an L-shaped arm instead of a J-curve with shorter extenders.

Nothing too spectacular, just some MW Poker/Wammer thing here.  It's not horrible, but its weapons break off very easily.

Cookie for anyone who can figure out what it's inspired by.  ;)

Also, Skype chat challenge mess:



It's supposed to be a Shell Spinner/Clamp hybrid.  I had to improvise for the Clamp since I had weight issues and the Rule of Seven getting the way.  How much does it suck?


It also needs a name.  Fire away.

nothing worse than a hybrid which weapons do not synergize well with each other.
am i doin it rite



It's alright, I mean the wedges are good.  It manages to beat Rabid Pit Bull and Neglected Waterbug if that means anything.



Well, I thought since hammers are pretty much dead against VS, I thought I should combine the two (Please tell me someone hasn't done this before).  They work together rather nicely, but sometimes they are counter intuitive.  Real fun to drive around.  I just wish I entered this with the Hammer/FS Hybrid in RA2 League.  Ah well.  Can't complain about much really.

Both have DSA and two blacks for the curious.

the second one is a bit less efficient, maybe. although fs shouldn't lift the other bot too much so the hammers should still have enough swing to be good.

although there is this element of uncertainty about where the hammer is going to strike.

but thats just me being difficult as always. I still like it <3

am i doin it rite

Cool designs.  Can I have the bot file for the second one?  I want to see how Sealion Hammersmith does against it.

Well, I would've put that in the battleshots thread, but I guess it's relevant to the bots strengths and weaknesses, so I don't mind.

The bot itself is really nothing too spectacular.  I mean, it's MAXIMUM mixed with Solstice.  And I haven't tested it much, so I have no idea on actual combat.  But knowing my luck, it probably will suck.

I'm honestly shocked that it actually won.  In fact, I never really intended it to win.  I was more-so trying to go for an RA1 style splash as I've had that idea for a while.  As for the splash itself, the Falcon with a box on it's head was supposed to disguise me since RA1 gave the "builders" an actual portrait, that and for some comedic value.  In case you haven't found the pun from the competitor name, take a wild guess on what it is, and why I included it.  (It isn't that hard.)

Also, if this technically counts, since December didn't have, then I won two back-to-back BOTM polls.  Again, thanks for all the votes.  :)

Here was my bot that I used in the challenge against Silverfish:



Yeah, I kinda cloned Click's Red Sky, but it seemed like a good counter-move for whatever Silverfish might throw at me.  It counters hammers, FSes, rammers, and even HSes (at least when I'm driving it).  It was average around popups, which I didn't think he'd use with the rules in place.  Maybe if I'd enter this in an actual tournament with every bot type out there, then maybe I'll see what it's really made off.

i think the reason it counters those robots is because they're too distracted that your robot isnt wearing a bra
