Put this onto your signature if you were part of this crappy fad in '03.

75% of stock HW pokers are generic anyways.

Had a go at building a popup.

Mostly Harmless

Two blacks in there, haven't learnt how to stack them. Any idea what I could do with the extra weight?



Good evening.

get rid of second wedge, turn all the razors the same way, add front protection.
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

Now I'm not sure how I've done it, but while trying to make some improvements the right rear wheels is suddenly not in the same position it was before. So now the bots pretty much shat if it wants to go strate. I think one of the axles is in a slightly different position to how it was before, but I was playing around with it and only making it worse... but maybe I was playing around wrong. I'll play around some more and see if I can fix it.

Anyway, heres my attempts at improvement.

Good evening.

I think all your armor would be better at the front.

Tested Mostly Harmless and it was a failier. Against Starcore 1 bots.

Anyway, here is a slight improvement.

Scythe 3





My first bot to use Snapper 2s, my first to use effing and my first 36 mace HS. Unfortunatly, I still can't stack blacks, so its only got one of those. Slightly underpowered. Also not invertable. Still, what do you think for a first propper try?
Good evening.

^^Whats that meant to mean?! You a weirdophobe O_o

Anyway, I made a MW version that I'm considering entering into the Doomed Bots torney.

Scythe 3.5





I'm aware that it probably needs a plow at the front for protection, so I'll do a rebuild soon.
Good evening.

attach drive and weapon motors to one snapper each, and downgrade drive to RADS.

My attempt at a rebuild. Hopefully a bit better, but a lot less stable.

Scythe 4

It would be better if your drive was in the chassis. Use a vertical snapper, attach a T connector to its secret attachment point, and attach the two weapon motors there via advanced snapper loading. Then work on your extenders to attach the plow on its normal attachment point. It'll save you enough weight to swap to irons. :D

Mix both of them together and you get a better bot.

Thumz up.
You might be able to put the plow in a little better though.

Make the Spinners spin inwards (or outwards) so it can drive straight (so change the mace position).
