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.

Lol, razor tip. Great work.

It's actually just a recoloured mace from the Stinger CAD that I made. But it does suit Swarm pretty well in these colours, I reckon. =) Razor tip might have looked a little daft in a CAD, though I have made one, along with some other RA2 components. Just for fun.

Yeah I see, 4 blades and much bigger, the colors do work well.

Agreed. Regular razors are too small...

Question.

Teresa, my upcoming SHW as you've seen, has completely pointed corners. I'm contemplating what Nick (Spatula) said about chamfered edges earlier, and how well they resist horizontal spinners. The problem is that if I do this, the skirt on that edge will be easier to rip off.

Then there's the idea of just making Teresa's exterior armour angled really low instead of giving her skirts. I'm not really sure how to approach this. Any ideas?

Me and Kody were having a discussion about weapon type's, when Kody brought up MiDAS and Jynx, saying that more lifter/axe combination's should be more involved in CFL combat.

Here's my answer that statement, please welcome: Denryu Bakuha

Posted Image

This bot has a lot of inspiration to draw from when I designed it. It's many inspirations include Quaestor (Of FRA fame), MiDAS, Jynx, Mortis, Apocalypse MK 2 and Complete Control. The bot has wedged sides to prevent other bots from getting underneath, it features a lifter/flipper (The blue part) and a vicious axe (The black part) The bot hack into enemies with the axe while the flipper/lifter holds them into place, they can also be used to clamp onto opponents and take them to the hazards. The bot can self right with either the axe or the lifter.

Soo... Any thoughts?

Looks pretty cool- I like the configuration with the axe and the flipper.

Funny thing is, I've got a Mortis-esque design lined up myself-

Discord. Named after the Spirit of Chaos from MLP:FiM, it runs on four-wheel drive, and it has two effective weapons- an electric-driven Tanto Axe that could (In theory) hit up to three/four times a second, and a low-pressure Flipper Bar, predominantly for self-righting, but great for flipping opponents around and setting them up for a hail of axe blows.

I'm very happy with the design, but aligning stats is tricky- I don't know whether to prioritise weaponry, armour or wedginess. Once I've cracked it though, I'll most likely enter it into the LRE or Crazy Bots or something.

Thanks mate, also I remember seeing Discord on GTM prior to my departure, I really wanted to see that thing go in the arena, nice to see Mortis live on again :D

Also, the sign ups for Crazy Bots has been stickied already, so you know where to find it ;)

Ah yes, that was where I got the picture from it, actually- all of those designs were from my old notebook, actually. Glad you like it, though- I like to go with a bit of a Robot Wars-esque feel with my designs. If I can get the stats right, it should be a pretty mean all-round competitor. Once everything's ready, I think I'll sign it up. :P


And indeed- I think that'll be a pretty good idea. :cool:

I'd have to see how it looks with the low angled armor before I could make an informed decision.
