It's a generic rammer anyways so it's not a clone of Pwn's.

Do you have enough weight for getting a bigger chassis and using a Nifty ?

something original



Made this last night. Because it's a combination of a rammer, FS, and poker, it was originally called Chimera. I switched the name to Kymura because it it sounds similar to Chimera, but sounds cooler IMO. The wedges are on a NWB wedge level. The blacks are cross stacked because for some strange reason, I couldn't stack them regularly. It's a nice popup killer, but it kills too slow for my tastes. I'll probably switch the axes on the piston to razors to see if it kills quicker. One tank, DSA.

It's original(to me), and there's no empty space.

I reckon it's pretty original sparkles.

Nice. Try the razor idea, It should kill quicker then, but you will lose the defense that axes give yay. FSes usually like to grind away rather than be quick killers. Maybe try to put the rads on the side rather than the top, and make it into a V shape so it would trap better. See if that works.

Though it looks like Mincemeat with an automated weapon rack, it's actually pretty original, and it looks nice as well.

How about shifting the middle HPZs backwards and find a way to put the tank in front of the batteries? :D

Probably because it was inspired by Kryptic.

I actually have a few ideas Rolo. It's just stupid hard to make it effective.

It's just old designs that have been tried before like FB Hammers, VS, and Flatbed jugglers.

Rebuilt Kymura. Looks more like Kryptic, but kills much faster.



And a castor armor VS. It isn't as heavily armored and wedgy as SD's version, but it's faster and has bursted weapons. I'll probably try a different chassis to make it wider. 2 blacks.

This originally was supposed to be a trinity sidehammer, and the idea was that when the DDTs fire, the pistons would swing out, like a trinity SnS. That failed lol. I would had went for a full trapping rack, but didn't because it would seem too much like Vise and I wanted it to be invertible. 2 blacks, DSA, 12 maces. Will go back to do a piston sidehammer.

Still looks a lot like Vise :P

Not bad though, I like the invertibility. Why do you have the pole spikes and the pointy tip? You should use razors or something without normals.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.
