So we have names for the Rhino and griffins with DB, PDB, RDB and hellfire(Rhino with Mag and Orkan), Top Golem etc. Anyone have any more we can use? I am really lazy and can't be bother to type Aphid/Taran whatever all the time. So Anyone got any bright idea's to save us all typing?

Not so sure we should inundate the board with acronyms since there are quite a few newbies here. Besides, eventually you're gonna have to explain what a rocket golem or an arty nat is anyway.
How about using the expletive filter to replace the acronyms with something descriptive?

The bizarre insistence that Death Button and Plasma Death Button only apply to Rhino's and Griffins doesn't help. A Pin Patton or Mag Patton could easily be called a Death Button and Plasma Death Button. Same with any Medium hardpoint holding bot since the Heavy that goes with them can be safely assumed to be a thunder. Calling a thunder/pin Vit a Death Button or a Thunder/Mag Tasha a Plasma Death Button variant WOULD be a bit of a stretch however. DB and PDB Leo still works for me however.

Out of curiosity where have you seen any insistence on people calling Db and PDB only applies to griffen and rhino? I thought the patton was a mini db?

I have seen it referenced a lot. The mobi forums, the FB page, various popular War Robots youtube channels. I think this forum as well, but I'm not 100% sure |

Oh, if I see DB or PDB I automatically assume someone is talking about a Rhino or Griff.

Thunder schutze is a Thunder Chocobo.
Zeus schutze is a Lightning Chocobo.
Trident schutze is a RDB Chocobo
Kwk/Kang/Zenit schutze is a waste of Ag and a low win %.

Why not call all mid range adaptations Mr? Mr Golem, Mr Boa, etc etc. It's only a little tongue in cheek, but descriptive.
OMT Golem (Orkan, mag, Thunder). Ya get the drift. Short range cossack, Cossack Sr.
