Prometheus:

Good weapons, but unwieldy and unstable. I unfortunately ran out out weight and got sloppy.

I'll hopefully post more bots soon!

Hmm. Not too shabby. Good first post. You seem to have been lurking for a while.

Lurking seems to be good actually, you get a better start when you start posting it seems. I don't really have much to say about it, maybe you could just go down to 6 spikes instead of 12 so you can upgrade the drive to redbirds. Those motors are more for LW bots than MW ones, unless it does fine with them.

EDIT: Congratulations on 1,000 posts sage. :D

The motors seem far too high and the extenders are very vulnerable.

You can use the side attachement points on the extenders and make them double-stacked that way too, but it wouldn't change weight or anything. Good bot.

Prometheus 2.0:

It still has stability issues, but I think this is about the best I can do with this chassis.

Definitely an Improvement, how well does it do against other bots?

Zirikki · « **Reply #7 on:** December 14, 2008, 02:37:32 PM »

It does good, but it loses weapons quick and has trouble with getting spun around and hit in the back.

Somebody · « **Reply #8 on:** December 16, 2008, 06:34:29 PM »

Looks good though.

if im not mistaken, Prometheus is a cyclops in The Oddessy. Perhaps you should name a one motored bot prometheus, cause then it would make more sense.

Names don't have to make sense Sage.

unless they are names that have been used specifically. I doubt he came up with prometheus unless he knew who they thing was. If you make up a name, then its fine. But if you use a name from somewhere else, there's usually a reason for it.

ok. you don't have to feel like a fag for knowing that. I should feel like a fag cause i'm STUDYING it in english class and didn't know it.

Prometheus is a Titan. Polyphemus is a Cyclope.

And then the Hecatinchires. (Hundred handed people)

Perfect for driving any 50 part multibot you can come up with!

Naryar · « **Reply #15 on:** December 17, 2008, 08:23:44 AM »

Hecatoncheires!

I'm lucky that I remember that from 3 months ago. Too bad I couldn't remember it on the midterm...

That's a LOT of beetleweights against just one MW.

And yet, all powerless to the MW.:-D
