Title: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: 09090901 on June 04, 2011, 08:36:19 PM
Hello everyone, I've decided make a stock showcase. :) Here's a rammer I recently made
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/17272eminsides.png)

398.8 HP-Ztek Drive, 18 20 Iron Spikes (Apparently I can't count XD) , 1 Nifty, Snowplow, DSA, and invertible.
 
Any advice is appreciated. :)

Not exactly a weakness, just an unnecessary part, just like rear armor or such. I suppose it tames the glitchiness (due to bursted drive), but it seems like angled ice picks are better for that.

Very, very, VERY nice bot. This is good for a veteran, let alone a newcomer. If you lined up all the Irons the same way, that bot would look stunning. I am a little worried about that T connector, though, but if you could move the plow forward just a touch, then that would protect them and the plow would no longer be useless.
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: 09090901 on June 05, 2011, 09:58:54 AM
The plow was to originally better protect the wheels. You guys are probably right about it being unnecessary though. Also, here is a side ways popup.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/3674vavle.png)
DSA, 1 black, 6 razors, Snapper II wedges, and Snapper 2s for weapons.

Thanks for the advice.

Actually, 1 thing:

Try putting a caster in the middle of the bot (in the U-shape) to eat up that last bit of weight.

The wedges are going to be very bad if those HP Z-teks are mounted on the Snapper II's...

The wedges are average but I made it to kill HSes and freezies the battery is right against the chassis wall :l.
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: NFX on June 05, 2011, 10:42:38 AM
It looks like it could do well against HS's. You'd have to get under the opponent quite far, I reckon, to hit the opponent. Not sure how high the weapons go. Should really be able to self-right, too.

It's original and will do more damage quickly. It will however fail against 36 HSs.

Who is this guy?

Well built Geice. I might rotate 4 of the zteks (two of the high ones, two of the lower ones) 180 degrees, so you can attack more height levels. (Better to counter wedges, better to attack extenders on other HS).

I tried this originally but I had issues with driving straight. I tried angling the drive at a lower level but it had trouble with being invertible.I was able to get it to drive straight with grannies, but I had to remove the plow and yes I'm aware it doesn't do well against 36HSes with maces but it can occasionally beat iron ones due to the exposed extenders.

Post by: Sage on June 06, 2011, 03:53:43 PM
You know, you could switch to rubbers for the wheels if you used a different set up. The way you have it now I assume you are using 8 20cms to hold up the motors? You can do it less pretty with 4, thus saving you 8 kgs and giving you enough weight for rubbers. They have a larger mesh and better stats, so perhaps they would allow you to turn some of the motors upside down.

Also, your bots remind me a little of InfiniteInertia.

I'll try this when I rebuild it. Thank you for the help. But by rubbers I assume you mean grannies?

No, the rubber wheels. The ones that weigh 17 kg and look smaller than shinies.

Soooo bots not invertible with Shinies might be invertible with rubbers? (GO AWAY ROBO)

Doesn't that mean Shinies are better than rubbers for lower ground clearance and wedges? That would certainly explain NWB's amazing wedges with Shinies...

Not necessarily. The grip mesh has no effect on the ground clearance, only the actual wheel's mesh can do that though.

Incorrect. The mesh is just the ability for a bot to contact the ground. However, the visual mesh is still what hold a bot off the ground. At least, that's what I think is going on. TO THE RA2 MYTH TESTER

Better area of grip and therefore slightly more controlled movement? Worked like that for my SnSnS.

Even if the wheels dont tough the ground, the larger mesh will. Your bot will still slide on the ground instead of on wheels, but will still move.

You seem to be a fan of double narrow caster-armoured chassis wedges. :P (that's right, I just used four adjectives to describe one word)

Switch the weapon and drive motors perhaps?

Looks like it has DSA. You could also save some weight by using a Nifty, which can power all four of those motors.

NFX, that actually defeats the purpose of this robot. 20 cms have 200hp, while Irons have 1000. Thus, irons are much harder to knock off than irons attached to extenders. It's a very valid concept and one I'm going to explore more.

Haven't tried maces yet. At the time irons seemed like the better of the two due to the lack of weapon extenders and longer reach.

Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: NFX on June 12, 2011, 10:55:25 AM
I thought it was an axle with a chassis that tight. Very nice placement of everything, though, I'm just thinking it could be a little bit more protected. I'm guessing it might havok quite a lot as well, but the static drive would help prevent that somewhat.

It was Pyscolone's Doomed Bots entry and the HS that I think started the axle enhancing craze.

From the looks of things, Doomkiller used the pause button before the start of every match, and pysc used the pause button to take the picture. If that's not the case, then pysc is just magical.
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: NFX on June 12, 2011, 11:40:43 AM
If the pause button was used to go into the match, then robots with SnapperIIs, DDT's, or maybe even axles, would have their alignment completely screwed up, and they'd spaz out at the start of the match.

I have Militant from that doomed bots pack Doomkiller released a while ago; Militant works without pausing if it's in the P1 slot. Any other slot and the motors start out near vertical.

Is that 15 Iron Spikes on 1 HPZ?! It's going to spin very slowly. And, the chassis is strangely tall for some reason.

Also, where the heck is the control board (I think I see a tiny bit of green between the drive and weapon HPZ, but that would just be a really weird place to put it as opposed to on top of the weapon HPZ)

It's actually 21 irons :). As for spinning slow I use it a SNS to increases weapon speed kinda like Banja Genefactor or Spin Cycle M. With the chassis it's the minimum height for the HPZ and the control board is in the nifty :).

I had extra weight but they keep it from getting stuck on its side as well as protecting the wheels slightly. As for Bounty Hunter Syndrome, I've never heard of it. Could you tell me what it is please?
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: NFX on June 15, 2011, 05:07:42 PM
Nothing to do with the casters or skin, actually, it's to do with the wedges not being terribly good because the drive and other stuff is attached to the other AP, making the wedges kinda half-static and thus not really as wedgy as they could be.
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: Fracture on June 15, 2011, 05:08:36 PM
I believe it's when you have a caster armoured popup that has really bad wedges? (I just remember BH was a HW popup in BBEANS 5 that was very nicely built but didn't make it far for some reason)

one small tip is to segment extenders when you can. 2 20cm extenders have twice as much total HP as a 40 cm since all the extenders have the same HP.
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: 09090901 on June 15, 2011, 08:06:26 PM
The extenders holding the wedges are segmented into 4 20cms, though the side extenders are 40cms. Thanks for pointing that out.

Very nicely built. I'd have tried a Nifty myself, maybe replace the inside maces on the sides with Irons to bring them into play a bit better, and it seems, if anything, a bit TOO compact.

I think it should do. I think you could get away with the chassis being as low as possible without the glitch, if you could stack them into it. I think you could get away with widening the chassis enough to get the baseplates in without stacking them, maybe you'll have the weight for that.

Doesn't look too bad. I'd try mounting the RAD's on the opposite end to get a wider trapping area. I'm guessing that's why it has that motor setup.

Popups aren't really a big problem in the LW division, are they? The snowplow and tribars should prevent it from flipping over too easily anyway...

I don't recommend it, but if you really want invertibility you'll have to either stack the anchors inside the Nifty, use Plastic, and/or use 1-2 regular extenders instead of the T-connector.

246.3 and DSA. Front anchor is slightly exo-stacked.


Those angle motors should be turned around, you want the tribars far apart so they clamp on other HS and tear off extenders.


But nice work putting Z-tek drive on there.  Tons of people build LW dual HS with Z-tek weapons, thinking that automatically makes them better.  But I think better drive is actually the wiser choice.


The battle axe popup is awesome; I thought it was a HW when I first saw it.

That T800 style bot had good wedges I think...though snapper IIs make bad wedges. As for a chassis wedge it's possible but I think you have to have plastic like Seism 16(which had good SII wedges>.<)

It looks pretty good, though I'd try Snapper2 wedges, personally. If you lost a couple of battleaxes, you might be able to add a couple more weapons on there. And I wouldn't have the axes attached to the wedges like that either, they'd be screwing up the wedges somewhat.

Post by: Scrap Daddy on June 21, 2011, 03:31:47 PM
iirc Ronin and Wipeout are different bots and Wipeout had great wedges while Ronin's blew hard.

and honestly I really dont think what motor the wedge is on really matters as much as weight distro and wedge angle. Alot is my old castor popups with blue wedges own my newer bots that use ddts and my best wedges have all been vertical green snappers. not to mention NWB is still extremely annoying. Another thing I have noticed is that bots with static setups(aka not built off of snappers) almost always have better wedges.
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: kill343gs on June 21, 2011, 09:25:39 PM
It's really all about weight distribution and angle. The reason DDT wedges are the best is because they are the heaviest. This is backed up by the fact that adding ballast to the front of a bot improves wedge.

Ah, so it's just Baseplate Anchors? Fair enough. Perhaps swap the two BA's on the upper RADs for a BA+20cm, and shrink the chassis a tiny bit if you can.

Looking at the anchors, using anything other than RADs to power the weapons would lift it too far off the ground for shiny wheels to reach anyways.
 
 
Nice! Would it be better with maces, though?

Not in this case. Maces are primarily used as defensive components, since their large collision meshes protect extenders far better than iron spikes or razors. Irons are actually more damaging IIRC, but maces are usually used on HS to protect extenderwork.

It looks properly mental. But it should have a wedge on the front to get under the opponent effectively. It's more of a juggler, that one, but the front RADs should be angled downwards a little bit more. If the RADs were angled further upwards, it'd be more of a trapping HS/pusher.

I had a wedge and the RADS angled down originally but it was on a anchor

Generic SNSes since I needed a non-bursted design for RL and also that will hopefully survive qualifying. V1 has 1 black 12 bear claws, 6 razers and plastic.
V1.5 has a nifty, HPZ drive, a regular Ztek and HPZ for weapons, 12 bear claws, 6 maces, and plastic. Happier with 1.5 overall.

V1 vs Fury

Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: Jack Daniels on July 16, 2011, 10:18:36 AM
And surely you could sacrifice two axes to put blades on the wedge extenders to protect them?  That would be wise young jedi. Yes?

.... actually now that I think of it (and my hangover is wearing off)  Why so many axes to begin with? With such a wide reach from the tribars, do bots even get close to all those axes to begin with? I know everyone loves putting weapon racks up close to the chassis to protect it, but how come it is so uncommon for the weapon racks to be put forward more meeting with the outer circumference of the spinning weapons?  I would figure that would maximize damage potential and still keep opponents at bay.

No it doesn't. The more razors means a slower swing speed and thus less damage as well as the fact popups only fire when there underneath other bots. Lots of popups have 10 or less razors and are still effective.

Wrong. I'd say 10 was about perfect, actually.
 
That looks like a very, very nicely built bot. On the subject of the casters, I've noticed the ones on the edges are going 4-3-3 towards the edge, if you see what I mean. If you switch that around and have the row of 4 casters on the outside, then that would offer better protection against HS, I reckon.
 
Also, why is there a random chassis point in the middle of the front?

Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: R0B0SH4RK on July 21, 2011, 03:30:11 PM
I'd trade 3 castors for two more razors so you can have an even 3 per snapper. As it is, it seems like the arms with two razors would contact first, dampening the damage from the snappers with three razors.

Not entirely sure how much this hampers any effectiveness, however it's easy enough to do so i think it would be worth a shot.


Also, how the heck are you so good??
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: Sage on July 21, 2011, 09:11:00 PM
Looks messier than your usual bots, Geice. I think it's too short to be effective as a popup (could be proven wrong, but that's from experience) and the caster setup is sub-par. Nice job stacking as always though. Agree with R0b0 on the razors, plus the wide ones look too wide to get a good hit on a chassis.

For the poker, make the maces flat along the top for wammer effect and will also allow bots to slide up better (which is critical to the design.) Side hammer is okay... would be better with a trapping design (to stop HS from spinning) and more weapons on the wide hammers.

True popup/wammer but works better as a popup. DSA,2 blacks, 8 razors, 6 irons 4 HPZ drive. DDTs for wedges and weapons. Wedges are pretty good. Doesn't do that bad though.

Anyway new bot looks great. Was the idea to keep on hitting opponents with the popup weapons since they would bounce off the wamming rack and back in front of the bot? And...is that just ONE snapper I see? o.o

That actually looks pretty good. I hadn't thought about a four-pronged chassis before, nice idea.

It still staggers me how you can only use one SnapperII AP each for crazy extender setups. Surely if you used the second one, you might be able to save a bit of weight?
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: NFX on August 18, 2011, 07:36:09 PM
You could attach the SnapperII using the AP on the side instead of the back, that should prevent the extenders from becoming vulnerable.

Wammer popup or true popup hybrid cause it works better as a regular popup. DSA 2 blacks, DDT wedges, 1 DDT with four razors. Chassis is roughly the same as the old one I posted afew pages back.
Props if anyone can guess the name reference.

Utterly insane. I don't like the extenders being exposed, though, I'm not too sure how much the weapons would defend them. It's like Parabolic Trajectory 2 on steroids.

I question the use of maces, though. I would've spent that weight on a dual Snapper2 setup with 3 razors each, unless you're making it part artbot (like my totally crappy blade-armored popup).

2 blacks
Snapper 2 wedges
Static Redbirds with maces
1 plow
2 ramplates
DDT with 4 razors
4 HPZ drive

The plow and ramplates are angled to form a wedge.

Drop the irons for HPZ weapon motors maybe?

Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: NFX on September 04, 2011, 07:10:40 AM
There is a DDT hidden in there if you look closely enough.
 
It looks excellent, but I'd be worried about the VS messing up the wedginess. Would blades on the top of the wedge extenders be better than Iron Spikes on the sides?
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: nightcracker on September 04, 2011, 07:14:13 AM
Ah now I see.

If it doesn't matter for the wedgyness, then definitely blades are better than those two iron spikes.

Also, I'm not so sure about the maces on the VS. Might get some better gut-ripping weapons on there, like irons or razors.
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: 09090901 on September 04, 2011, 07:18:54 AM
The motors only spin when a bot enters a smart zone and yea blades are probably better though I chose irons to differentiate from other bots.

Post by: nightcracker on September 04, 2011, 07:24:08 AM

I would suggest going blades, or if you want to go original (sort of) an ice pick.

Perhaps it's worth a try replacing the VS's maces with razors and upgrade the redbirds to HP-Zteks.

Too small to be effective. Especially so since the wedge is soooo steep and I doubt the Snapper2s are chassis mounted.
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: Sage on September 04, 2011, 12:34:49 PM
At that speed it's just gonna bounce off everything. Like inf said, too small. Props on the one snapper build though, that's difficult to pull off.

On the top ones I agree, but the bottoms ones break far to fast with only 2 razors against HS IMO.

Although, if the purpose of the maces is to de-wedge bots, razors would probably work better. Irons for the main weapons seem fine.

Razors work much better on hammers. Also, the only bots that hammers work on is HS and rammers, so you might want to beef up your frontal protection  with the weight gained from using razors. don't need HPz, just use normal zteks or you'll tip yourself over on the initial rush.

Because its humorous, and poses a challenge to see how many maces he can mount on it.

I've found that it does, but only on wammers.  Which this bot is, so I expect it's good, although 4 razors is kind of paltry.
 
Also, obligatory "that bot is awesome" comment.  I even see some spike strips in there.

Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: NFX on July 12, 2012, 09:13:08 PM
What you could do is attach the drive by 20cm's as opposed to 40cm's to the side AP instead of the rear, and rotate them three clicks down so that it's still got one side flat against the ground. Not really too sure how else you could save weight on that one, but it's a very nice looking machine. Great work, as always.
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: Sage on July 12, 2012, 10:24:58 PM
rotate the razors so that one of the edges is facing up (like, away from the center). This will ensure maximum damage. NFX's fix SHOULD work, if the extenders cooperate.
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: Urjak on July 12, 2012, 11:18:38 PM
Might be able to mount the drive extender right off of the extender coming out the baseplate anchor, and then attach the angle motors using the attachment point on the other side. This will make your disks slightly farther apart, but should get you down to 398.9.

Looks really good. I reckon you should keep the wedge longer, it doesn't have to be great, it just has to get under a chassis against opponents with two wedges. My one gripe is the maces on the FS, they'd unbalance the bot, bounce it around and make the wedge pretty poor. Is it a FS/Popup, or a FS/Rammer?
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: Fracture on August 20, 2012, 08:36:21 AM

?

I'd rather see all razors and redbirds for the FS. Spins faster and redbirds are less exposed than RADs. Unless of course the main setup is off the baseplate and not the SnapperII.

violate partisan was a hs , this would be more like  a thwacker operated like saber tooth or lmf that swivels back and forth to hit the other bot. this would spin about.90° before returning to a more forward poation

So it's more like an NCR glitch spinner? It'll be really unstable if that's the case, I imagine. When the thwack arm's perpendicular to the direction of travel, it's gonna have an absurdly short stance, so it could end up tipping itself over in some way.

Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: 09090901 on August 01, 2015, 10:07:21 AM
It does decently against HS that use irons or use exposed extenders, doesn't do well against ones that use maces as they usually end up out weaponing it. Against wedges it usually depends on who gets under who. Wedges aren't bad, but could def be better.
The biggest issue with it is that it isn't the fastest at dealing damage so fights usually take awhile.

Has the best wedges of the three wammers I made and de-wedges the best. gets raped by pretty much any decent hs though.

Looks like the bot I posted last night but in stock so I see what you mean. Might be advisable to have it wider or to swap around the weapons so that you have irons nearer the side for durability, but I know basically nothing about the stock meta these days so :P

tried to make a weaponed flipper. decent flipping power and it actually does pretty good damage, it can sometime beat hs like spin doctor.
3 blacks, weight is 797 and the back two motors are regular zteks.

About on par, if not less than NWB. Probably gonna try to find a way to get rubbers and upgrade the back motors to hpzs.

Here's the vid on how to activate it
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C78deCb-uC0&feature=youtu.be# (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C78deCb-uC0&feature=youtu.be#)

It's pretty much the same as ASAS, but you continue to break the axle until the game let's you stack the rad. From what I can tell, you can only stack components on a certain part of the chassis, so it's not as powerful as hax mode.

If I had to guess, this is probaly how people were able to exostack rads inside of each other while being stacked in a nifty/hpz.
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: Mr. AS on February 12, 2016, 12:58:31 PM
Just tried this out myself (http://i.imgur.com/0m1Zz8v.png), so I can confirm that it's not an "oh your computer's just glitchy" kind of thing.

Might try it out with another motor next just to see if it's RAD-exclusive.

edit: couldn't get geice-mode to activate with a redbird, so it's probably safe to say that it probably has something to do with how light the motor/axle is.

tried out some asas stacks, made a generic hs and a topspinner/popup hybrid
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/91886asas.png)
first one has stacked hpz weapon and drive motors, second one has the baseplate zteks stacked into the wedge snappers and a snapper 2 stacked into the ztek. hs is just generic, so it's probably gonna get canned, but the hybrid is definitely getting a serious re-build.

there's a few other stacks im going to try that might be more useful (pistons inside of zteks or snappers IIs inside DDTs)
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase

everyone else is building one so why not. wanted to see if it could be built with baseplate drive.
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/42008sasgve.png)
turns out you can, but it has plastic instead of DSA. 248.7, extender setup could be lighter but it's about 10kgs overweight with DSA so it really doesn't matter. chassis has alot of empty space though, so it might be possible if you made the chassis airtight (though i doubt you'd be able to stack everything inside)


Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: Sage on April 02, 2016, 04:55:36 PM
you could exostack the baseplate anchors maybe
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: Clickbeetle on April 03, 2016, 03:04:41 AM
Nice.  Did you axle load the left wheel away to stack the Nifty in there?  I never thought of doing that.

Also I was trying to do the same thing and I'm 99% sure this cannot be built with DSA without some ASAS wizardry.  You'd need a 25kg chassis and only 12kg worth of anchors + extenders.

i know there's a lot of weight on the wedges, but they would've sucked ass anyways with the zteks on snappers and only 2wd. might rebuild it it with 4wd and a static vs setup if i ever remember. everything else is standard for a stock hw.

Kills most things it gets under, gets raped by heavy hs. Not much I can do about that though.

A pair of RAD undercutters would be dope if I can get weight for them.

Yeah, sidehammers kinda seem like one of those single wedge bot types. Probably has something to do with Vice and Fragbeetle way back having single wedges, though they do seem better than your standard double wedge.

Dunno, just saw that delete button was gone from the side after one of the fourm updates. Tried it on my IF showcase first to make sure it wouldn't delete this one.

same insides as the old one but with a complete different setup, 6 razors on the DDT now, and all the wammer weapons are now the snapper IIs. a little wider aswell. 799.0

still not happy with it so i'll probably rebuild it again.

here's the old bot if you want to know what the chassis setup looks like
Ehh not dead yet...not quite.

Didn't make it in time for annihilator

Oh man that is so cool looking. Are the wedges any good? When I tried making a popup off a snapper the wedges were beyond terrible (couldn't get under a box chassis) and it was super havoky.

Also, why DDTs for wedges? I thought Snapper2s made the best wedges?

From what I've read DDTs give the best wedges, then Snapper2's and after that SnapperII's, but the distance plays a big part in that.
Title: Re: Geice's Stock Showcase
Post by: 09090901 on July 29, 2016, 05:25:56 PM
New one uses snapper 2s for wedges. They seem decent, but I'm still tweaking them. Absolutely no havok as well.

All burst motors are equally as wedgy as long as you aren't doing dumb sh**. The only difference between all the bursts (aside from power) is how much spring and give they have when they collide. Snapper II's have the most, DDT's have the least, and S2's are in the middle. IMO, the less springy they are, the more weight you can put on them before becoming ass.

did you mount the wedges to the snapper? you have to mount them static or else they will blow.

invertible and can self-right

(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/5270180.png)
180 degree hammer. 2 blacks 799.3. DDT's are static. idk if it can self-right but it does a full 360 if i fire both bursts so i guess that works (only the first ddt is wired to fire).

probably could go down to 1 black and get little bit more armor but we'll see

it can fire with pretty well with 1 black. i'll probably take a few razors off to make it easier for the ddt.

the first ddt has an extender attached to the ddt holding the arm. when the first ddt fires, it causes the second one to spring down with the weapon arm and then it bounces back to its original postion.

From testing Snapper/DDT Stacks I can confirm that those really bounce around/havok itself a lot, so a missed shot would probably rip them off against spinners or drums. I'm also not sure how much damage you really gain from that, on hammers that fired both at the same time it wasn't exactly more, and having the hammer bounce around wasn't a good thing.

built this almost a year ago, took it out to segment the wedges. never posted it as i though it wasn't that interesting/looks like most other rad spinners. still has exactly 11kgs of weight left for whatever. 0 havok with the plows, decent wedges, has 8 rads, and looks clean as hell imo. wedge snappers have nothing on the hidden back ap

probably gonna get rid of a few rads to put on a rammer rack. idk how we'll it'll do but it should stand out a little more

biggest difference is the setup (3 anchors vs 5) and wider undercutters

went with static drive for once. Don't tell anyone, but it's actually 797 and not 799. i'm just too lazy to place the last extender somewhere.

props to whoever gets the name and skin reference (stockfags won't get it)

1 nifty 2 blacks and its under weight

it acutually works, is decently maneuverable for saws, and makes a sh**yourpants sound. the 2 levels of spinners counter rotate each other so that's pretty dope

for those who doubt its effectiveness:

all the other bursts were too unstable. a servo might work though

DDT for snapper boosting instead of a snapper since the axle is more stable and you need that for these kind of bots. Click's Thundercloud or w/e it was called used a DDT as well for the same reasons.

technically it's a FBS, but I could use servos with wheels if the sawblades are a problem

the bots is str8 trash though don't worry.

It looks more like a "Borg-Queen-digested-SFTW" type of bot.

kinda hard to explain, so i'll just post the bot file (assuming apanx is ok with it) https://a.pomf.cat/qhkalu.bot

few things i've made for that tournament
(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/27040sftwakatme.png)
true popup with 6 razors, 3wd, and one of each battery. wedges are inconsistent to say the least.

(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/72525wiiiiide.png)
snappers let me build it wider and taller than a static setup. 20 maces, 120cm piston.

actually a really good bot. it's wide enough to fight hs, and just barely tall enough to deweapon and beat most smaller disk vs. obviously not very good against bots like alien queen or tribar vs like vertical horizon. gets raped by wide melty sns.
