New Robots

I have been trying out a new version of psycho ant. Im going for 4 wheel drive, mostly using gears to get it done. Its all mostly in the air atm as im not sure if it will work well. Il probably just stick to the old design for this redding event just to play it safe.
Chrono trigger is going more for penumatics which should solve the flipping problem.
Berserka - not saying anything for this

just wate and see.

After Ant-lion's destruction at the FW Smash, I think its time for a whole new line-up of ants:

Cypher: 4WD Invertable Wedge.

Scourge: 2WD Invertable Drum.

Fell: 2WD Pneumatic Flipper.

Hopefully I'll have them all done by AWS14.

Hey there
First off welcome to our ant comunity
As for names well, i usually go for names that i think are cool at the time, even if they have nothing to do with ants what so ever
Chrono Trigger is an old snes game but i just thought hey I like that name
Berserka is basically nicked from a anime, jap aninemation

alot of peeps around like the names with ant in them so
CombatANT
EntrANT

depends really what kind of person u are

I tend to name my ants after good songs.
Bigshot comes from 'Big Shot' by Billy Joel. Some songs don't work though (Roll Over Beethoven would sound a bit stupid!)

Unless your ant was invertible

I normally just think of cool words for my ants, don't really care what the word means, just pick what I think sounds cool, my ants are Void, Zenith, and Synergy

thanks 4 the ideas!
can anyone think of a weapon system in the rules for 20g's?!

For 20g you can get a lifter/flipper or axe.

As for names, anything that takes my fancy or describes the ant well.

Marco, you need an ant clusterbot called Dirty Pair

I never got into the Berserk Manga
