eddiebear well first welcome to the forum. Lot of great people here that will be more than happy to offer their advice. From what I see of your bots and weapons they are all over the place. Try to keep your weapons together by ranges first and foremost. Keep your weapons for now at the same level of your bots. You might want to post a pic of your hangar. Also search the forum there is a lot of great info out there. Lastly I have you by a couple of decades, you young whippersnapper. ? Hope you enjoy. ? Edit: This is a great place for help. war-robots-forum.freeforums.net/board/4/tips-advice

[quote author=" dangit" source="/post/152851/thread" timestamp="1501628000"From what I see of your bots and weapons they are all over the place. [/quote] I have tried to do the reading and watching videos. That's what I came up with. Hence need help, maybe a 14 year old can help out. LOL Like I know: Griffin + 2x Magum + 2x Taran is good. I'm working on that. That's all I got. Any combos of my remaining mix would help. Maybe if I can see a few good combos will help it click in my head as to what is meant by good hanger. |

eddiebear best thing you can do is pick 4 bots, load em' out with weapons. Open your profile, drop down weapons for your bots. Snap a pic, go to the thread I mentioned in my post. Create a thread include hangar pic and all available weapons. You have too much listed, don't know your playstyle, whether you want Long range, mid range or knife fighter. Or a combination of all. More explanation is required to help you precisely.

Maybe that's part of the problem, I haven't formed a play style. Lol. Like a monkey hitting a keyboard.
I have tried reading.

eddiebear, when I first started playing, I spent so much time and silver trying different things. I didn't even think to look at the forums. I got so frustrated that I put the game down for several months and only just got back into it a few weeks ago. I'm level 30 now, and am Gold 2. All the bots in my hangar are either level 7 or 8, and I just finished upgrading my active weapons to level 7. The best advice I can give is to not worry about winning or dying or anything like that. Just have fun. When I started doing that, I accidentally figured out my play style. I'm not a brawler, I don't do massive damage per game, and I don't kill that many bots. What I do do, is have fun running around the maps and looking for targets of opportunity, either an undefended red beacon, or a crippled red bot, or a blue in need of help. The thing with bots and weapon levels is that there will ALWAYS be someone out there with a bigger bot or a bigger gun, so don't worry too much about that. As for bot setups, don't build swiss army bots. Build specific bot types, ie, sniper, brawler, beacon capper. Have a basic strategy in mind, ie, cap neutral beacons early, or hang back in a sniper bot. Ideally, have one of each type in your hangar until you figure out what gives you the most pleasure. For example, I am currently running a Gareth, Griffin, Galahad and Rogatka. I'm in the process of upgrading my Gepard to use as an Aphid chucker. My play style may not work for you, but the point is find your sweet spot and have fun.

Was there a sale at Walmarts for the Thunders? How did you get all of those?
This is my opinion and I stand to be corrected:
Leo: Thunder/magnum/magnum/magnum
Leo: Thunder /pinata / pinata / pinata
Leo: Thunder / pin / pin/ pin for extra range
Leo: Thunder: Punisher/Punisher/Punisher
Griffin: Mk2 Punisher/ Mk2 Punisher / Punisher / Punisher.
Get more WSP and get another taran and you can have:
Griffin: Taran/Taran Magnum/Magnum
IF you like your molot griffin for long range level up your molots. At lvl one you would not tickle a ripe peach
Patton: All pin or all Pinata but they need upgrading as you will be wrecked by anyone getting too close to you
Gepard: Pinata/pinata/pinata if you like beacon capping (and get some gold. Who doesn't love gold eh?)
Start using that silver for upgrading weapons and bots. No need to go overboard with the bots but they max speed out at 9.
You are not doing bad actaully - you must have concentrated alot on the taran and thunder and forgotten about the others.
As you gain more silver get some more wsp points to see if you can get a carnage and then you can shunt a couple of thunders on that.

Was there a sale at Walmarts for the Thunders? How did you get all of those? I had loads of the blinkin things... all over the hangar floor... sold quite a few for Ag Pins and pinatas everywhere too... had to sell quite few of them not sure where they all came from , must have bred or something ... did they used to come as standard equip on any other bot than a Carnage? ... I am sure I wouldn't have bought so many ... maybe I won a few in events |

You can slot a taran, thunder, magnum on it. |

The inventory system could do with some polishing up. I don't know maybe a drop down menu for all the same items. Like you only get one thunder but you click it and down comes a menu with all the thunders and their levels. |

All this help is gold.
When I started the game, the person that told me about it gave me a bunch of bad info. I too that bad strategy up to level 29.
I ask him what I asked here and see where it go me.
Thanks for all your time. I with I had known about this forum from the start. My hanger would be solid.
Time to regroup
