Alright, so I've swapped out Carbonemys for Seadevil and lent it to Kody for the lulz. I've also entered Howler II as my FW.

Almost done with the house robot, but I might need someone to make a CAD for it. I'm getting tired of the limitations of tinkercad and hoping someone else might be able to improve it with a better CAD system. But I might be able to get a new system once I have a computer that doesn't die every time I download something

I should really make a house robot. As things stand right now, the house bot situation looks like this: Buzludzha: Hammer and Sickle, (Benzin) The Woodshed: Silver Sonic, (open spot) The Asylum: Dr. Cadaver, Clawstrophobia Gothiq: Teresa, Drakina Shooting Star: Ganymede, (Bob's House Bot) Vertigo: (Genghis), (open spot) Please tell me as soon as possible which arena the house bot is for (it should fit the arena's theme). The Woodshed and vertigo have one spot remaining, and Vertigo may have two depending on whether or not Alex V delivers Genghis. Edited by The Monsterworks, Jul 21 2016, 08:22 AM.

![]() CLAWSTROPHOBIA A 400kg mechanical monster capable of 14 tonnes of crushing power in the main beak and 12 tonnes in the side claws. The beak also has a flamethrower installed to inject some heat into the captured robot. The claws have a reach of 1.1m and the beak 0.8m. The six legs can allow the robot in any direction and have a zero turning circle so the claws can always face the competitors. ![]() ![]() ![]() And now for Clawstrophobia's party trick... ![]() A ram in each of the front legs lifts the robot up and allows the beak to pierce further down while lifting it's prey off the ground. The robot can still move using just 4 legs to bring other house robots into play. It can also release the claws and lower the rams quickly to use the beak as a full body hammer to damage a robot even further. Speed - 4 Torque - 2 Traction - 1 Armour - 4 (+6 House robot bonus) Weapon - 28 (14 Beak | 12 Claws | 1 Flamethrower | 1 Lifting Legs) |

I would highly suggest that you make this more specific. it feels both like an afterthought, and also leaves the weapons dangerously open to interpretation |

PAHT BIRD PAHT REPTILE... Also, given its theme, where would you rather have Clawstrophobia placed: The Asylum or (Middle Eastern-themed) Vertigo? |

I'd go for the middle eastern themed Vertigo. I imagine a big mechanical scorpion crawling across the sand dunes is more suiting than the Asylum. |

You can always just use the damage scale I wrote for Bot-O-Rama, and which is being used for Showbots. Basically I had saws function similarly to hammers where they deal corner damage no matter what part they're hitting, but they get no weapon armor bonus even if they have power > 5, because saws are fragile. Never really got to test it much though, since only one person entered a saw... |

@noiseygiraffe don't bother on the CAD. I just wanted to make sure that this made it before the deadline. And also, once you see the design you'll know why it shouldn't be redone. On that note, it's a complete mess, but I'm only using this CAD to give everyone the idea. It's a bit of a jokebot, but you won't be laughing for long. Say hello to Gyroscoptica! http://imgur.com/a/g6SpZ 2WD bot with a special kind of spinning ring and a flipping dustpan. Once your inside the ring, it will take a miracle to get out alive. This house robot's goal is to either flip you over, or even better, toss you into it's ring with two sets of five teeth on the top and bottom. The dustpan can also flip all the way up to prevent the bot from falling out. With a dangerous weapon spinning at over 300 mph, not only will get chewed up, you'll also get bashed around as you hit the sides of the walls. So with that being said, take a look at the stats of this monster Speed: 5 Armor: 9 (+6 house robot armor) Weapon: 21 (3 flipper, 18 spinning ring) Traction: 4 Torque: 1 I know, I've completely lost it but if the design is allowed, just throw it in the woodshed.
