I'm in. It's my first FRC, and I feel like I'm pushing the rules with my HW and SHW designs. Will they be allowed?
Hmmm, very interesting designs. LW and MW should be OK. I'd really reconsider stats for the LW though...those big weapons leave very little for everything else. HW is pushing it a bit so that's gonna be up to NWOWWE. SHW is a VERY interesting design. I can't wait to see what it does.

Alright so since ACCount decided to ALSO enter a kinetic flipper into LW, I'm moving Sling Shot into MW so I can enter this Pyrite redesign I've been thinking of.

Hey, NoiseyGiraffe! Glad to see you on the forums, welcome! :cool:

I edited your sign-up post a teensy bit so that people don't have to click on the imgur links to access the pictures. It's easier when we can see them directly on the page. :)

I just looked at NoiseyGiraffe's designs. A legged 30mph rammer? That's insane! Can't wait to see it in action.

All CADs are awesome too.

Yeah, lots of cool cads from Giraffe.

Really not looking forward to facing Bolt.

Yup, they do all look pretty sick. Though I am a little disappointed that he didn't call the MW Thunder Struck, that would've been good for the AC/DC reference. :P

Anyway, my MW entry (Lyra) is up. And although I did say I'd enter Jackal 2 here, don't worry- I'll be making a HW based on its design to compete there, so I can have both designs essentially in. And potentially win HW as well, so there's that, too. :v:

Giraffe, I have a suggestion. ENTER VERTIGO! Seriously, I've already said a bunch of times that it's the best robot in Hammerfall and is likely going to take the whole thing. It's an amazing robot with a terrifying weapon. It's a hit in Hammerfall and will surely be a hit here too!

I wanted to try a few different ideas here since we can enter 4 robots here. Bolt was a candidate for Hammerfall 2 but decided to put it in here to see what it could do. Also just wait for Vertigo 2. Honestly, it's the best robot i've designed and solves most of the weaknesses Vertigo had. #GET HYPE

It is so awesome to see the giant spike in activity on this website now. I'd be really interested to see traffic stats Pre-Hammerfall to now.

Anyway, gonna work on DD2's design later and get my HW up at some point. No idea what I want to do for that though.

Redesigned Dat Dog and have made my HW....no pics yet but I'm pretty happy with how they came out. Nothing ground breaking, but a couple of cool looking push bots. We shall see what happens.

I've replaced Halberd with Pandemonium, since Halberd will be returning for the next Hammerfall tournament.

Hey there, HotDealsInTexas, good to see you! Thanks for signing up to FRR: Backlash, always glad to have new(ish) people. :cool:

I was kind of hoping to see Aphelion again since it was actually one of my favourite bots, but it's cool, your newer bots seem pretty interesting as well. ;)

So glad to see so many people coming over here.

Really excited for Backlash though. This is shaping up to be an awesome tournament.
