Nice. I know this is better but IDK which one I like in terms of looks though...
BTW that middle blade's asymmetry is driving me nuts, but I don't see how you can fix it so oh well.

Thumz up bro

Nothing he can do about about the middle blade's symmetry I think. I'm guessing the mace spinner in the splash is Pandemonium?

Original and effective. I love it.

It looks really cool, but wouldn't it be better if you just spam ramplates on that front?

No. The way the axes are places allows bots to slide up really easy. The middle one also holds the other bot in place as is hits the underside. And yes, it looks cooler too.

VB- that's Absolute Chaos :D

4 Blacks, 8 Razors.

I thought a kick-ass bot deserved a kick-ass splash.

Heh. You forgot to alpha channel the space between the razors on the bottom left pic. :P
Nice splash man.

the front castors, are they a bit useless?

What would you recommend using the weight for?

DuckRA2 · « **Reply #429 on:** November 09, 2009, 08:50:36 PM »

ya I was trying to think on that, maybe ballasts? idk if castors have a weight that counts

That's the reason I put them there. For ballast and possible protection from (really) low cutting HS.

MOAR RAZORZZ!!!11!

^^ He won't have enough weight with 12kg to spare.

More armor maybe...

Reier · « **Reply #433 on:** November 10, 2009, 08:22:12 AM »

Well you might be able to put on 2. :P

Sage · « **Reply #434 on:** November 10, 2009, 04:03:50 PM »

Because of the elongated extenders (40cms), the DDTS already have trouble getting a hard hit off, and adding another razors would make it worse.

DuckRA2 · « **Reply #435 on:** November 10, 2009, 07:51:01 PM »

duplicate the bot with shiney wheels, and then go one on one in the combat arena straight driving about 5-12 times(versing the one with grey wheels), and check if the wheels are helping. They probably do work better with the grey wheels, but hey- give it try

Pulse 2 looks cooler by far. Battle axe armor FTW.

So it can 1HKO bots eh? I guess sideways popups are no longer just a novelty design.

With the extra weight: counterweights on the DDT's?

OOOO that sounds cool. I've never experimented with counterweights... how would I go about that for this bot?

Rupt the DDTs, or axle load or something, so you can put an extender going backwards off of

Code: [Select]

________________
|              |DDT
|______________|
|this one | <right here
|_________|
|    |
|    |
|    |
|____|

so it will poke out the back of the DDT, and then attach something heavy there. Or just make the extender long. If the counterweight is long enough, it doesn't need to be very heavy because leverage will make up for it.

It doesn't need razors.
