GF93, I'm sure you can build something, cuz you have to defend your third seed!

Unless I can make something effective, Hazard will have to do.

Although, I must admit something. I'm really having trouble building a rep that I want that fits in with the weight limit. I know it was done to encourage building of IRL robots that GTMers built themselves, but I think it would've been far better if the weight had been middleweight.

I absolutely agree with him

It's OK, the planned bracket has 32 spots.

To be clear, skinned components are allowed right?

I realise, but I've got to ask you something. As I'm more used to building DSL Middle and Heavyweights, what are the best motors to use for 4-wheel drive LW rammers?

SKBT · « **Reply #31 on:** August 18, 2010, 11:47:34 AM »

Slimbodys if you can fit them. But the drive would be about 1/3 of your bots weight. :P

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #32 on:** August 18, 2010, 11:51:05 AM »

That's the trouble, really. Any robot I try to build realistically in LW always becomes too heavy, and even if I fix it, my useless computer ALWAYS resets the moment it tries to save

MikeNCR · « **Reply #33 on:** August 18, 2010, 12:32:47 PM »

Some 2wd LW's that'd be not too hard to make in DSL:
Code:BLACK
Concretor
Monarch
Paladin
Snipe
Widowmaker 2

and there's a ton more. This also ignores robots where the wheels aren't visible from the top/sides, where it could be 2 or 4 wheels.

Thanks for the suggestions Mike. Will you enter with Ruiner? :P

Badnik96 · « **Reply #35 on:** August 18, 2010, 01:18:41 PM »

He posted his Mr. Self Destruct (basically an upgraded Ruiner) on his showcase.

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #36 on:** August 18, 2010, 01:31:05 PM »

Oh OK. I might go with Code Black then.

freeziez · « **Reply #37 on:** August 18, 2010, 01:31:58 PM »

Contrare, because I shall enter Code Black.

Just needs a better skin.

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #38 on:** August 18, 2010, 01:33:42 PM »

Who's the number three seed?

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #39 on:** August 18, 2010, 01:40:36 PM »

Anyway, without further ado, I'll make the Code Black rep, send a basic unskinned version to guarantee my place, and then in September, send a properly skinned version when I can access Photoshop at my school.
