Thanks! I think this might be the most overall effective of my entries, although Funerary Precession will tear up a significant part of the field.

I'm kind of tempted to enter something ridiculous and/or obnoxious in the FW and MW divisions as well, since as this point one of those terms describes most of the bots people have entered.

Ah, good. So potentially I can still get something in if I'm quick.

Going to try out Deadpan in the FW division. I don't expect to do super-well with it, but we'll see if I learned from the mistakes I made designing the original Tesla.

SHW design up. Replaced the old illegal spring skirts/wedge extenders with hinged ones, so hopefully those should work alright.

I should go 3-1 this week but it'll probably be something like 0-4 or 0-5.

It sucks going 0-5. You lose all 4 of your bot fights for the week and you also lose at life.

Oh thank God. I was starting to worry that you wouldn't get 'em up on time. They both look insanely badass (Iguess it was worth the wait). If you need a hand rendering one of the other two, just discord me.

Now we're just waiting on Shaba, Peskius, and Spatula and we're up to 23/24 possible entries.

Sorry dude, you know I have a fear of clowns. :v:

In all seriousness though, that one you have there does look much better than what I had. Also, my LW's (Spy VS. Spy) going up after I've fixed the White Spy's wedges and given the Black Spy its alternate option for weaponry.

All right, Sekhmet is staying in the Middleweight division, but after reading the rules on saws/drills, I think it's time to take Flatline out so I can try out that crazy weapon idea I made a couple posts about on Reddit.

Time to meet Chernobog's little brother.

Hi Wolf, just a few minor issues:

1) Psychotic Brick: an attachment that changes the armour allotment of the rest of the bot (your plow, in this case) is considered illegal in ARC tournaments. In this one, I'm piloting rules that make something like that legal. I flagged it so that you would be aware of the rule. It changes the tactics of the fight, and so you'll have to notify your opponent of which attachment you'll be using before each fight at least three days in advance. That's all for that one, nothing big.

2) Flip City Remix: This bot is actually okay. I just wanna do you a solid and remind you that you can use the two weapon rule to have a weapon stat of 7 and get 5 points for each flipper, saving you a point and allowing you to benefit from the weapon armour bonus. Tell me if you wanna take my recommendation and go this route.

3) Book of Carnage: It's not entirely clear where the wheels are mounted, although I assume that it's 2WD and the wheels are located under the 'spine' of the 'book'. Am I right? Also, where's the actuated lifter? Is it the 'front page' or the cover of the book? Please clarify in your entry post. Again, nothing big.
