Feel free to discuss you experiences whilst I get the splash sorted.

AWESOME.

For starters, I am going to remove the spleen of whoever put the 40cm wedge on the metal hinge. Made it more difficult than usual to get the proper frontal defenses on.

When I saw my bot I wept. NPC Normals inside the robot? Really?

Okay, hold still. =D *produces scalpel*
 
It didn't mess up the bot too much, though, it's still pretty wedgy. Did rather well during testing. I'm feeling fairly confident with this one, we ended up with a pretty good bot, I reckon.

Ah, right. Mine didn't have NPCs. *puts scalpel away* We'll see when the splash comes around.

In all seriousness, I got teamed up with a fairly competent set of builders. Although I may have messed up a bit right at the start, because I trimmed the chassis to make a Middleweight instead of a Lightweight. Then I read the rules and was like "oh balls". But it's all turned out well, hopefully. =D

Please say you didn't put those multiextenders there.

Nah, I like you. Tell you what, I'll take half your spleen when the splash comes.
 
I'm interested as to who the third builder was, though, it seems like a pretty good build to me. Would have liked to get an extra ant in there, though, but it's all good. =) Looking forward to killing some stuff, specifically Naryar and his designated minions.

OK, um seems I mixed up ty4er and craaigs stuff a bit. You two might have to redo.
