A flying machine that can drill straight through anything with 3 strength or weaker. 1 aluminum
Muffin Man is building this. With this, it could basically destroy any machine, because no one has any stronger materials than ones with strength 3 right now. Even if Hocotian, it shouldn't be this powerful.

But then, you forget the problems. A. It's made of aluminum. It's not as durable as it is powerful. A few well placed shots could knock this down into a fiery doom. B. Although I didn't specify, it's not very fast. C. Since it takes an entire aluminum, it's a big target, and is therefore easy to hit. Also, it's spelled Paraskevi (anyone know the reference?)

s-k-e-v-i instead of s-e-k-v-i right? Also
Also, it's too powerful, in my opinion maybe, let him keep the one he has, since it's already built, but can't build any more.

Well, if it's that flimsy and not too fast, I don't see much of a problem. I assume that it's mostly the front that's reinforced to give it so much power, right? If you have no anti-air at all, frankly, that's your fault, and since he said that a few well-placed shots could shoot it down, anyone with a few anti-air turrets should at least be capable of dealing with it--Especially if it's close enough to actually be attacking.

Uhhh WD, this is unfair. It is an aircraft so duh it would be weak armor wise so no differece. Also this thing has dethdrill like powers. Drilling through an iron wall? Uhhhhhh no. I find that unfair because in the old verson I had 300+ day of stuff smashing on kaka's wall an it took a while and it was build strenth 2. If it was ground I'd be fine as it would be easer to destroy. But anyway in a divebomb at a wall, we won't be able to shoot it down!

Of course you'll be able to destroy it; when attacking, it be at ground level and nearby, making a very easy target for any anti-air guns, with an exception being specialized long-range missiles or whatever, but I doubt anyone's anti-air is composed of just that. Additionally, it would be flying so low and be so vulnerable that things such as Blast Rocks and BorbBorbs could hurt it, and if a few well-placed shots can shoot it down, than a few hefty explosives should definitely do the same.

I find a problem with this: It can fly and use a drill to make a hole, The problem you ask is that, when it hits the wall, it would A. Lose so much speed that, in effect, would stop it near compleatly and fall to the ground and blow up. or B. Blow up near instantly.
There is also the hardness problem, which basically means that something not as hard(alluninum in this case) can't can't cut through a stronger material(iron in this case)
Last but not least to prevent a "technology" loophole, Hocotatian's still use rockets, Hover technology is out of the question for horizontal drilling, and I doubt that a vertical drilling would be useful at all, seeing that if its drops, it can't drill, if it crashes, it blows itself up.
Common Sense has won another battle!

hover technology is not out of the question, they have lazers, and they can blow up stars with the nova blaster, but I agree on the point that it shouldn't be able to drill through anything stronger than itself, so he should either make it out of titanium, or lower the limit it can drill through....

Common sense?
Just because because it hits the ground doesn't mean it blows up.
And it doesn't necessarily drop just because it stopped in mid air.

I think aluminum is strength 2, so it doesn't seem right that it can drill through something stronger then it. But besides that, I don't see anything wrong with the idea.

So it has to be changed so that it can only drill through strength 2 and below, right? I'll go tell him that...
