In Cyriliums last bout I counted the armour as being Scandium, or whatever it was you replaced the Cyrilium with on the HOW DO I IMPROVE thread. Please change the Cyrilium armour, it doesnt exist. Only then can Cyrilium challenge No Objections again. Also, in what direction is the flipper hinged?Comment

Challenge Belt
front hinged flipper.
and the only reason I want to use cyrilium armour was so if I lose, the house robots will not horribly destroy me.
however, if it is illegal, change it to 4mm titanium.Comment

Also, Cyrilium has side skirts on the sides to give it an all around zero ground clearence.Comment

Challenge Belt
Alright, Ill challenge Joey for the belt like the belt seeking little vapourboteer I am
. Heres my top robot.
NITRO-GENE 4.0
€ WEIGHT: 100kg
€ ARMOUR: 5mm Hardox for the body. 6mm Hardox flipper.
€ SHAPE: Low invertible box with pointed sides and rear. At the front is a 42* wedge to aid in getting underneath other robots. All the lines have been curved over to make it harder for a spinner to grab onto a panel and rip.
€ MOTORS: 4 x LEM 130€™s at 36V = 36HP
€ LOCOMOTION: 4 Vulkanised Wheels.
€ DIMENSIONS: (L) 90CM (H) 17CM (W) 70CM
€ COLOUR: Black all over with the flipper coloured red.
€ WEAPONRY: A full pressure Nitrogen powered flipper at 1000psi, using a single 80mm ram at 1000psi. The flipper is mounted in the middle of the robot, and is 20cm wide and runs 30cm up the body. Using a 3cm long Titanium strip underneath the flipper, and a heavy flipping arm, the flipper runs completely along the ground. Running on a ratio 2.2:1, the flipper produces 1600kg of force at the tips, allowing me to launch anyone away! This version has 2 x 3kg Nitrogen bottles, giving me 25 flips!
€ SPEED: 22mph
€ GROUND CLEARANCE: 0MM-2CM. At the front, it is completely 0mm. On the sides/rear, its 2cm. The orginal weakness of Nitro-Gene (its high ground clearance) has been seen to by the skirts on the sides/rear. They are 5mm Titanium skirts and are joined together like BioHazard - at the corners. To avoid them breaking off, they are held in place by Hardox hinges.
€ STRENGTH: Pushing power and weaponry.
€ WEAKNESS: High speed may mean difficult drivingComment

Right, time for legitimate tactics...
Let Nitro-Gene come to me, and try and get off the flipper just before he fires it, then raise the lifting arm and jam it in the internals to try and break something, or at least raise it off the ground so I can push it easier. Otherwise, spin madly and inform Paul that I am writing the sumo round of TCC as we speak :PComment

Goody! Ive posted in what Im going to do for that. No Objections is a fantastic desgin, you cant object to it :P. But point of that it says in his tactics hes going to TRY to get off my flipper. His plan all hidges on that bit.
So my tactic is to speed into him and get him on my wedge. Dont fire the flipper then, as I plan to keep on pushing him around and prevent him spinning or lifting THEN I go into flipping mode. If my plan fails and he starts to spin, Ill reverse into him with my robust rear and stop him spinning before going for the OOTA.Comment

And so begins No Objections third defense of the belt!To Mark- let Paul have a go, he hasnt had a try yet, you can go again later.
So far No Objections has literally burst Tornados bubble and sent Cyrilium topsy-turvy, lets see what he can do against his latest challenger:Nitro-Gene 4.0!
Nitro-Gene is a low invertable box with a flipper to die for, and its more powerful than No Objections so once again Joey could get pushed around a lot.
Representing the house robots in this anticipated bout are Sgt.Bash and the terrifying jaws of Dead Metal. Be very afraid...
Joey tells us that he plans to get Paul to flip when No Objections isnt onboard the wedge by driving on and off very quickly. This would allow Joey to wreak havoc with Nitrogenes internal workings- lets see if No Objections can put the plan into action!
Booth 1:Paul Cuomo
Booth 2:Joey McConnell
3,2,1,ACTIVATE!
Nitro-Gene is the first to make its move, darting swiftly across the arena to get under No Objections and send it flying across the arena! No Objections rolls like a wheel on its side before falling over and swiftly self-righting with its lifter. Nitro-Gene immediately comes on the attack again and pushes Joey up against the pit release! The siren wails and Nitro-Gene gives No Objections another taste of the flipper, this time sending it head over heels into Dead Metals CPZ!Dead Metal clamps his arms firmly around No Objections and comes down on it with the circular saw!The sparks fly, but Nitro-Gene comes to Joeys rescue and turns Dead Metal over with a flick of its flipper! No Objections escapes and gets in behind Nitro-Gene, lifting it up and over in the blink of an eye!So much for a thankyou!Nitro-Gene is quick to self-right and gets under No Objections again before sending it sky high!
CRASH!
No Objections crashlands on the flame pit and tries to self-right, but cant, as one its forks has got speared in the mesh! Refbot rescues the stranded bot, but its now up against the arena side wall and therefore still cant self-right! However, help is at hand as Nitro-Gene 4.0 comes in to send it flying out of the arena!
CEASE!
No Objections finally loses the belt, and they couldnt wish for a better bot to lose it to! Nitro-Gene 4.0 is the new holder!Comment

I seriously wasnt expecting to win - No Objections is a masterpiece of desgin work, and even if Id lost, I could boast that I lost to it. But thanks anyway
Can I ask, what happens if no-one else enters, does Nitro-Gene keep the belt?Comment
