Well Joey, he didnt have to be go God-Damn-In-Your-Face about it. If hed politely noted me, it would have been fine.

Ill think about the armourment. I just dont wish for it to lose all of its toughness.

I believe the traditional SHW weight limit is 154 kilos (it was in Battlebots anyway), throwing Robo-Rat over the limit.

Anyway...

MEGA MASHER 2

Weight: 100 kilos
Body Shape: A Triangle shape, a bit like Inshredable (from Series 6). 1.5m in length, 1m in width and 0.5m at its highest point. There are minature ploughs at the rear where the blade is, to guide robots into it.
Speed: 15mph
TC: 0
GC; 0 at front and back, 6mm at sides
Wheels; 6 inner, aranged in a 3-wheel-a-side formation. This means that four wheels are always on the ground at any one time.
Armour: The front is 2mm Hardox, the back and sides are 5mm Titanium and the base is 2mm Polycarbonate
Power: 3x 12v batteries, plus Bosch 750s at 36v.
Colour: Red and yellow.
Weapons; The front is a wedge, and the back has a nasty vertical titanium 45cm in diameter disc, powered by its own LEM130 motor and spinning at 2000 rpm. It can probably flip as well as damage.
Srimech: The robot can run inverted, with the sheer angling at the sides making stranding near impossible.
Inspiration; This is probably the only robot I have where I have had no inspiration. It just came as a good name.
Strengths: Power, weaponary
Weaknessess: A little bulky.

The big problem now is the thickness of the armoury and theres STILL the issue of the teeth on the disc.

Srimech: Jelly babies

I like your sense of humor Ben

I think for a SHW those stats are viable. I think Bearded might be a little overweight due to the batteries, but aside from that, cool

I think Chris the only armour problem is because of the sheer size of the robot. 150cm x 100cm x 50cm is unnessearily large, I would go more along the lines of 85cm x 85cm x 20cm, which would probably allow the 3.2mm hardox armouring and you would still fit it all in

**team_britespark** · 14th September 2008, 18:59

But then remember to change the diameter of the disc...

**dinowarrior** · 14th September 2008, 19:05

So, if I said the disc was 15cm in diameter, would that be OK?

I guess the only reason I had Mega Masher so big in the first place was to see how a heavyweight would look in a superheavyweight body.

MEGA MASHER 2

Weight: 100 kilos
