How Could I Improve...

[corsair_lightning]

I didnt steal it!

However, I am working on refining it.

Side Swipe
Weight: 110kg
Shape: Panzer (S3) with a Tornado style wedge on the front
Colour: Silver
Dimensions: 85cm x 60cm x 0-39cm since there is a wedge on the front.
Drive: 2x TWM3R Team Whyachi gearboxes connected to 2x S28-400 Magmotors, powered by 6x NiCad Battlepacks.
Locomotion: 84cm x 10cm x 41cm titanium tank tracks.
Armour: 7mm Titanium/Vanadium alloy
Speed: 16mph
Ground Clearance: 0mm at front due to wedge, at sides due to skirts over the tracks. 5mm at back. 5mm at sides without skirts.
Turning Circle: 0m
Weapon: A 7kg Terrorhurtz style axehead, for use as a thwackbot weapon.
Srimech: Invertible

Any ideas for improvement?

You wont get any sort of thwackbot effect from tracks unless you use the worlds most insane motors, which would result in your batteries imploding instantly from the current.
Also, why does your robot change its height suddenly because of the wedge? Is it a magic wedge?

Its still a clone of System Shock...

A box with massive mini-digger tracks sticking out either side. Yellow and black stripes, didnt move at all in the heat L final against Evil Weevil.

EDIT *sigh* ...Mark, there is a very good reason you almost never see thwackbots that have more than two wheels. The concept just wont work.

Liam, I promise you I did not steal it.

EDIT: I am 100% serious that I didnt steal it. I just thought a Panzer-shaped robot would be the way to go.

And no, I havent looked at Systematic Shockers stats.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight....

Mark, nobody believes you. You cant construct good stats, you CANT write decent battles, you cant even make ONE promise without breaking it...quite frankly, youre useless. And beyond the point of recovery at that.

Basically, go away and STAY away!
