what are you doing you insane man

Seriously, though, that looks deadly. Hopefully it'll all look alright once it's finished.

Nick can we see how exactly the spinner is attached to the chassis atm? I don't see it having a place to go with the ramming bar there.

It looks like a sweet concept, that's really my only concern.

lol with the multiple weapon rules its gonna be like a 11-12 powered ramming bar + spinner, and thats unless spatula argues that they're on the same system so they don't suffer from the multiple weapon rule

oh okay that makes sense

if he can come up with a way to make a bar spinner and a ramming bar on the same setup i will eat this entire can of soda.

I'm working hard to finish my LORE team in time. If I can't get Gamma Ray ready something else may have to step in. My SHW should be finished in time though. Should be good fun!

The idea with this version was to take the design and modernize it, to make it competitive in the current metagame. It's sort of like a 'what if' bot, if team cool robots had kept competing and refining minion over the past decade.

I could call it something else; it's different enough to be its own bot, but there's no question where the inspiration came from.
