Our glass cannon got a health and ancile buff in 2016, but still only possesses 114K health at level 12.

Carnage is one of the slowest robots to upgrade, taking 5 days and 10 hours to go from level 11 to 12.

Carnage is the only robot among the lights or mediums that mounts a pair of heavy weapons.

The robots available for workshop points have always been fun. They each bring something unique to the table, from the Stalker's stealth to the Rhino's charge. I'm a fan of Raijin's health and firepower, but today we feature the first "glass cannon" in the War Robots universe: the Carnage Carnage is said to be modeled after the Bell UH-1 , which brought a whole bunch of death and destruction to Southeast Asia in the 1960's. American military helicopters are traditionally designated with the names of indigineous people, with this one officially called "Iroquois," but UH somehow stuck as "Huey."Some Carnage facts:And speaking of heavy weapons, it's a good time to be a Carnage pilot because we've never had more diversity in this weapon class. We have the venerable Thunder and Trident, and we have the new toys like Ember, Dragoon, and Redeemer. There's even a heavy Gekko in development to give the Trebuchet a run for its money.The Carnage isn't hard to pilot - it's hard to pilot well. It's difficult to stay alive. Yes, you can sneak up on your enemies and blast them. Just be careful, because it's a two-street and you have the least health of all the medium robots.We tested three of the new weapons and created a short video for your viewing pleasure. The U likes Dragoon for its 600m range, pinpoint accuracy, and automatic reloading. Ember is a terrific corner shooter - in the video, no other weapon would have made the kill between buildings - and treats all shields with the same disdain. Redeemer penetrates energy shields, complements the range of Tarans and Magnums, and deals tremendous damage. Double any of them up on a Carnage, and somebody's gonna get their head kicked in tonight ! If you run a Carnage as a protection detail for other robots, try one of these new weapons with an Ancile (Dr. Yat likes Ember for maximum pain and Thunder to knock down enemy shields).Finally, while the fans of this blog surely number in the twenties or even thirties 😉, there's always some jackass who has something nasty to say in the comments section of Reddit or the War Robots forum. Buddy, I don't know why you are wasting your time. Don't read it. Don't write us. In the immortal words of Nigel Tufnel, " Don't even look at it ."For the rest of you, take two days off and enjoy the game! Happy Friday,Dr. ZoSo
