Welcome to the forums, dude. =)

Y'know, for a first bot, that really isn't too bad. What you could try is using a Reverse RAD (Reversible Angle) instead of a Standard one on the left, so it doesn't stick out like that. And try to have an even number of weapons on each disc, so three each might work fine. I'm impressed.

How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

Haha, forgot about the reverse RAD. >)> I also thought 3 would make the discs un-even. Gaz has been helping me quite a bit and I'm gonna be helping him make a load of teams for RA2INBOW.

@Mr. AwesumSauce - Thanks. :)

I'm sure Geice did something like that with 4 Razors per disc. Not sure if it was snapper enhanced though.

No more comments? Is that because it's good?

Anyways, here's a bot that I built after seeing a bot that Geice made:



I haven't been able to test it as my RA2 crashes whenever I try to do a match...
