Any resemblance to Boreworm is purely coincidence Honest :roll: Well, I Knew what I wanted to make but it all came together I saw Boreworm at AWS 33. Inertias performance also confirmed my thoughts on spinners. Horizontal ones have as much chance of throwing themselves out as their opponent :o With the vertical one with the front of the blade going up the energy goes into the other robot using the floor as support (the other option is my robot reverses out the arena!).
Time you enjoy wasting isn't wasted time!

The good thing about Inertia is the ratio between the weight of the disc and the power in the motor is spot on. It's so easy to get one of these two factors too high, which usually causes throw-outs of your own machine, rather than damage to your opponent. Will has a real knack for hitting this ratio without really trying. Inertia's disc wasn't very heavy. He has bent it though, apparently, was telling me Variant managed to do it.
