For Aegis, I'd probably make the thwack head a bit larger so that it looks more formidable.

It sucks going 0-5. You lose all 4 of your bot fights for the week and you also lose at life.

what would be the issue with a design like Aegis as an ant ? would be taken down by spinners ? not enough spinspeed for the thwack to do any meaningful damage ?

mainly a lack of weight. unless you 3d-printed the shell, you wouldn't have weight for half that.

you know, the size of the thing in this image, is not meant to be representative of the size of the real thing, unless it would still be too much even if i keep it to the minimum size/scale needed to fit everything

i think it can be done honestly, and i can put the tail upwards during the size check if needed, but i rebuilt it anyway:

It is if you hinge the tail or wedge in the right way.

Hammerfell entry:

still an SNS/HS hybrid, now has a pole ala Megabyte, angled shell to not get steamrolled by spinners, 4 wheels located at the cardinal points of the chassis

I wonder if i really should bring this awful failure back from the cursed graveyard it was left to rot:

Personally, I would make the front less vulnerable to spinners. Any spinners that ride up the lifter are going to smack an edge and do incredible damage unless you make the armour value big enough.

That's pretty cool, reminds me a lot of a rustier Breaker Box with that Scoop on the front. :P

Personally though, I'd probably make the Scoop itself a bit bigger (Especially wider.) and the arms on the sides thicker for improved defence and structural integrity respectively. Other than that though, it looks quite solid.

Vibranium, new HS design, works like a classic Tornado Mer style HS, except it has a ring attached to the chassis via shock-absorbing rollers, increasing weapon longevity and reducing the chance of it being disabled in spinner vs spinner battles, features 4 low blades and 2 anti hammer teeth, also here is a view to show the height of the blades
