The spikey thing was for one of Sparkey's tourneys with the tentacle bot and the 340-bot SHW, right?

I've updated my team, ditching Valid Query in favour of something a bit more...potent.

;O
That is just... Undescribable. However, it will fall to any quick rammer that knows what it's doing.

I agree, it's an awesome design with a lot of potential, but does it count as a true walker or would it be restricted to "shuffler" status (22 points instead of 26)? :unsure:

I hate to say it, but it should probably be classed as a shuffler, since the drive train(at least how I see it) does have rotational movement.

It is a shuffler in the strictest sense, yeah. Broken Wings had a very similar system though and counted as a walker a few seasons back, have the rules changed since then?

Meganew · Post by **Meganew** » Sat Dec 25, 2010 6:42 pm

No, but it just doesn't look like a walker. I could possibly see Broken Wings as a walker since it has legs, but it doesn't have any.

i certainly wouldn't call them shuffling camshafts

They're crankshafts - look at Anarchy to get an idea of how it works.

Meganew · Post by **Meganew** » Sat Dec 25, 2010 6:49 pm

Anarchy's considered a shuffler.

joeychevron · Post by **joeychevron** » Sat Dec 25, 2010 6:52 pm

Precisely! ;P

(on a side note I do believe Anarchy to possibly be one of the best robots ever built for combat, but that's neither here nor there)

So? The only thing that matters is getting a trophy, which I will this time around. Best of luck to you. *me gives Lian a high-five through the screen*

EDIT: Plus, let's not forget how the pathetic Extreme Gyration utterly raped COTD last season.
