Title: Robot Wars Spinoff Display Tournament
Post by: That Robot is a Spy! on December 09, 2012, 12:51:09 PM
This is going to be a spinoff of Robot Wars Series 8, same rules and such, while I create bots for it.
And yes, Scarecrow will be in it.

I gave up on DSL because my computer is far too slow with it. It's fine with Stock.
Also, I won't be using actually user bots without their permission.

Alright, these are the bots that'll be appearing in the first heat. Apart from the last  one (Scarecrow), I want some suggestions for names. I also want feedback on how IRL or good (or bad) the bots look.

Only the third and last ones really look IRL.

what the heck is the point of putting your spinner's weapons on 90 degree anglers..... that just wastes weight and looks foolish. and thats just scratching the surface of it

pretty much any usage of angle connectors looks bad, although more important is how your skin looks - try to avoid Starcor's style which looks anything but.  The popup you're going to have to lose completely because they defy physics.
