Nah, my last one was stock.

We had BoN recently, so that's one plain stock tourney.

DSL HW unrealistic is quite original.

If this starts, I am definitely in. Hell I even have the idea of my bot right in my head...

Just out of curiosity, why no Havok restarts?  seems like it could lead to some major whinefests to me...

Self Havoks are one thing but you need to have rules about Havoks effecting the opponent

If not fair if someones robot send another oota..

Cause I'm lazy, might consider changing it.
Title: Re: Steel Warzone Discussion
Post by: NFX on August 14, 2011, 01:38:45 PM
I would definitely change it. If one robot is decimated and loses its motors, and the robot that has the upper hand gets thrown OOTA via a havok bomb, then I would certainly want a rematch.

Or you could just not bother with these, and consider a bot that has no more means to move and/or no more means to destroy his opponent eliminated.

even if it were realistic, there are reasons to use HAX mode in DSL concerning funky collision meshes and the like. 
Title: Re: Steel Warzone Discussion
Post by: 090901 on August 18, 2011, 07:45:52 AM
stacking is easy enough in DSL, no need for bots that are pretty much impossible to destroy.

Title: Re: Steel Warzone Discussion
Post by: Preytor_4 on August 19, 2011, 08:17:10 PM
I'll leave the poll up for 2 more days, voice your opinions and get your votes in by that time.
Title: Re: Steel Warzone Discussion
Post by: 090901 on August 19, 2011, 08:26:28 PM
welp, since it looks like hax  mode is going to be allowed, time to make a small as possible chassis and just make a god mode like bot.
Title: Re: Steel Warzone Discussion
Post by: Scorpion on August 20, 2011, 06:43:14 AM
I'd have said yes if it's hax mode with exostacking banned.
Otherwise it'll just be invincible battery armour spam...

I don't think you could actually do that in DSL, batteries don't go through the sides of the chassis, do they?
 
Also, I'm wondering about the rules on Smartzones in this.

Easily done with ant batteries.

No hax mode. There is way too much potential for complete brokenness.

And the 2 days are over, so looks like no hax mode.

Don't mind standard Trinities but fliers are kinda dumb because you can't control them.
Title: Re: Steel Warzone Discussion
Post by: NFX on August 28, 2011, 01:05:22 PM
No. Trinity fliers are a direct violation of the controlled movement rule. Plus, how would they attack the opponent, and how would the opponent attack them?
