So you'd think if Srimechs can be added on for free despite them having their own separate mechanisms and things, other "utility parts" that aren't directly used as weapons- like adjustable suspension, wheelie bars or Voltronic-style wheel covers (Which in some cases would actually take up less space and power than a srimech. :v: )- would be allowed by that logic as well.

Anyway, so just to blow the dust off, here's my HW entry for FRR Backlash. Hits both ways, turret spins all the way round, good for smash stuff. Thoughts?

Looks pretty neat. Is it only the uppermost tier that rotates, or is it the top two?

Thanks, Nick. Just so you know, only the top half (IE. Second tier) rotates. The bit at the top serves as part of the mounting for the Hammer.

Introducing my FW for the Cherry Bomb Classic. He's probably not winning any points for originality but for referencing an old machine? Tenouttaten&#33;

Image
Anyway, here's Torque Dirty 2 Me, the reincarnation of a FW I built IRL for a Prince's Trust course last year. Nice robust Breaker Box-esque rammer and lifter with a big heavy scoop, red tyres, and a rather cool evil face on the front. Stats to come.

Solid, dependable, and very cheap :v: Should perform strongly with good stats.

Thanks for the reception so far&#33; Although I liked how the design came out, one of my favourite things about this one was as Peskius mentioned, the grin on the front. It's actually a carry-over from the original Torque Dirty, and the idea of having it wickedly smiling instead of snarling this time around was actually inspired by the 2016 version of Thermidor 2 doing the same thing. Like he's relishing the prospect of murdering all the spinners. :v:

As for the stat spread, here's what I was thinking so far-

Soeed- 7
Traction- 6
Torque- 4
Weapon- 3
Armour- 10

That looks like a pretty good spread to me. I might give a point or two Armour bonus to the front of the lifter for some extra spinner defenses, I think you should be able to get away with that.

With the 10 Armour, that should probably be do-able. :proud:
