I'm oddly aroused.

This one needs an upgrade:

Indeed it does. This an earlier bot of yours? It looks so different compared to your other stuff, it's like a completely different builder or something...

One of the very first. I was trying to copy aspects from a few of the default computer robots. It is not very good. I do not even know if it drives. I figured I would multiply all the components by 10. That would improve it, right?

Is that Ronin's chassis? I guess it would make more sense if it was just a good replica. I think you should either make this a middleweight, or start cutting corners for more weapons. Using DSA (if you haven't already done so), two pinks (again, if not already done), a small wedge, a SnapperII, regular Z-teks, and shiny hub wheels can help free up some weight. You could also get rid of the rear chassis slope, but personally I think it looks cool, plus it can be helpful at the lightweight level. With the extra weight, at the very least you could add more wammer weapons by angling the baseplate anchor a few degrees forward rather than straight up. Try to go for 4 irons to start.

Not all of the components. (Woo Lightweight with 10 HP-Zteks, 10 wedges, and 10 control boards!)

Instead of putting weapons on the very top, I would just use angled anchors and put them at the front.

That would be hilarious but if you're going a serious bot I wouldn't do it.

I should revive some of my old old old bots that stopped existing in 2009...

Sorry Fracture (and WackyBob), I appreciate the advice very much, but I was not meaning to improve the robot by conventional means.

Badnik96: Give me your robots.

you would make venko cry

I have seen his showcase. Happy or sad crying?

You know, with regards to some of these bots having grossly overkilling power, and assuming some of said batteries escape the chassis- What would one of these look like in the arena? O,o

Naryar · « **Reply #114 on:** March 28, 2014, 04:40:02 AM »

...do these count as artbots

Patience, I am getting there. Soon enough I will have the computer build robots for me. Testing is yet to come.

I'd love to give you my old crap bots but none of them exist anymore...
