yeah TS aren't very effective at all, i'd definitely try to get 2 motors

top spinner is probably better than a juggler for a MW imo, otherwise you are only going to get like 8 razors on rads which is poop.

main problem with this bot is that is too shallow. i dont think green snappers are needed on this bot anyways other than for a scrimech, to which i suggest just using one DDT down the middle instead, which would free up some weight.

Well, coming off hiatus, what better to build than an experimental offshoot of a type that never gets run in HW anyway?

Well, decided to remake Craaig/Cephalopod's first bot in his showcase:
2 SVs, snapper2 wedges.

Can you please explain how I do this? Thanks.

Wide stances are especially needed for chained spinners, and you can do this with stabilizers or just rearranging your drive setup. Find a way to make the wheels parallel to the outermost motors, and the wedges should also be slightly wider. You don't have to force yourself to a bursted setup, a static would do the job easier and probably would also make the bot more stable.

Alright, to collect this stuff in advance, I'd like to rebuild some first bots, bttb style. Anyone wanna give me a request? If not, I'll probably just do someone random lol

I have a popup. This one became a rupter by accident. (I tried to centre the weapons, and so it had a rupter shape)

Before I went completely AWOL, I built this. Recently reskinned it, testing showed wedges tie with insectoid, and I THINK there are two SVs under that mess, but I'm not sure (as I said, it's been a while).

Those asymmetrical ram plates on the front get on my nerves a lot more than they should

How does it fare against HS? Don't fight Longbow XD

Silverfish · « **Reply #233 on:** June 18, 2018, 08:33:53 PM »

haven't tested it much vs 36HS, but against maelstrom from SCv4 it can get under and get a hit or two in before the thing even hits top speed.

Reier · « **Reply #234 on:** June 18, 2018, 11:14:41 PM »

looks solid. how is turning with the narrow base? you sure seem to like your skinny bots

Silverfish · « **Reply #235 on:** June 18, 2018, 11:21:29 PM »

Turning's a tad wide but should be managable, and yeah I should really try some more static set-ups XD

those longboi wedges

Silverfish · « **Reply #237 on:** June 20, 2018, 06:53:20 PM »

is there another kind?

Silverfish · « **Reply #238 on:** June 25, 2018, 01:42:26 AM »

Decided to rebuild Shock Annihilator from the ground up, ended up with this. Meet Reverberator!

It's a shame that Ro7 is preventing you from giving it better weapons. I don't like the empty space in the middle though (placing a single ramplate barely counts). You could try slimming down the chassis to a U-shape and see if you can at least put a plow on each side to dampen the gyro effects.
