Too bad it havoked. That bot looked like it could have been very cool.
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

Well, actually a milder version of that happens to most of my Snapper II-bursted versions. But none of my Snapper2 versions suffer that kind of Havoks. o_o

Back from vacation...
Sage, I've been testing havoky bots to see if they act differently on different comps.  Could you send me this 'Havok-itis' bot for researching this....
Input is appreciated. :)
-Arrogance is a quantity devoid of quality...
-As a client once told me "This is my story, and it's sticking to me!"
-Relationships these days are like the 'Arrival' section of the airport: a lot of baggage is being revealed in one place, and not a lot of it is being correlated to its real owners...

I don't think it would be that great even if it did not havok, I am sure that you, especially, could find a better way to make it effective.

Yea. Built for that one team I did for Inf, but never showcased the actual bot. Pretty cool IMO. DSA, 3 razors, and such.

You killed Fury thrice. :))

Maybe you could replace the irons with razors, and replace the red extender with an iron or a mace as active protection. :D

Hah, I was wondering why that red extender is so exposed!

Funny sage, pretty funny.
Put this onto your signature if you were part of this crappy fad in '03.

Nope, very stable. Just doesn't have a good wedge, which is why it is an HS killer. I think PWNs hammer is better suited at killing other types of bots.

The red extender was just an idea I had when i saw I still had some weight left. I could try the razors idea, Pwn, but i liked the way the irons protected the wedges. We'll see.

Cool bot.  Probably the wedges aren't so good because you have so much stuff loaded on the Snappers.


Reminds me of a MW version of my Cheshire Cat.  Kind of sort of not really.  I guess the only similarity is the single DDT hammer.

Yea, and the high center of gravity. The wedges work great against HS though, which is what I was going for. I need to make a perfect wedge hammer one of these days though...

FRACTAL

DSA, 799.3, 2 Blacks, 4WD HPZ.


A prototype, not finished yet. Wanted to see what you guys thought, see if you have any ideas before I rebuild it. What I was going for:

Juggler with srimech (Works!)
Caster Protection that helps a lot (Doesn't work very well)
Superb wedge (Decent, but still mediocre to what I want)
Fast (Yes, it's fast)


So, any comments?
