Robot SMASH!!

What happened was I couldnt remember the next fight, so I just posted the battle and looked before I edited it. Which I have now done!

[joey_picus]

Robot SMASH!!

I see, very nice edit there

[paulc]

Robot SMASH!!

Oh - its my battle!

I dont really know about the featherweight category, so just hit him with the disc really.

[steven_mcg]

Robot SMASH!!

Dodge the disc, slip under Arrghs side, clamp it with the axe and use TREDTHALs superior traction to dump it in the pit.

And yay for All Scoop!

Special Event
Featherweight Heat 2/4:
Arrgh v T.R.E.D.T.H.A.L

Arrgh was the featherweight champion at robot wars extreme 2, and is entered here by Paul Cuomo. Its got a powerful vertical flywheel, and is from the same team as the heavyweight Reptirron.

T.R.E.D.T.H.A.L, on the other hand is a vapour created by Steven McGregor. Its an interesting design, incorporating a weapon synergy of lifter and axe similar to the one seen on Stevens heavyweight- All scoop and no stab make steve a dull boy, which just qualified for the main competitions heat semi-finals and is a hot favourite to take the heat championship.

Booth 1: Paul Cuomo
Booth 2: Steven McGregor

5,4,3,2,1, DECAPITATE!

Arrgh starts spinning up, but Steven is quick on the attack and slams into the side of Arrgh, bulldozing it across the arena and clamping down with the axe! Arrgh is powerless in this position, and now T.R.E.D.T.H.A.L pushes it for the full length of the arena, into the pit release tyre! The siren wails and Steven hoists Arrgh into the air with the lifter while maintianing a grip with the axe!
Arrgh spins the disc and the wheels, but still nothing happens and Steven carries him over to the pit!
PIT PIT PIT PIT PIT PIT PIT PIT PIT PIT PIT PIT
The crowd chant excitedly!

ITS OUTTA THERE!

T.R.E.D.T.H.A.Ls superior traction and tactics take it through to the semi-finals while Arrgh lies downcast in the pit of oblivion!

Shadow Zone Returns vs. All Scoop & No Stab Make Steve A Dull Boy

Flip it, then ram it around. Rinse and repeat.

D.V.D v Supreme Glory Omega

I dont fancy D.V.D. coming out of this one in one piece.

[steven_mcg]

Robot SMASH!!

Aim for the sides - preferably the corners of the front scoop - and toss it over. Charge back underneath, grapple with the axe and throw it out ASAP.

Thanks for putting whos fighting next. Makes it much easier to find out when I have to give tactics

[paulc]

Robot SMASH!!

Shadow Zone Returns v All Scoop: Shadow Zone may be a good robot, but I believe that All Scoop will get underneath and toss Kody OOTA!

D.V.D v Supreme Glory Omega: A battle of pride for me, as Danny is 2-0 upwards in our battles, but I reckon that I can overcome it with some clever tactics :wink: Because he has that 360 turret with the axe on, so he can aim as best he can, if I attack him very quickly diagonally, Ill be able to hit him and flip him at the same time - and Ill also smash up that miserable Lexan armour. To be honest, I would have rather faced Frank for this, but Im not going down without a fight here

Summary: Attack him in a direction his turret ISNT facing, and then hit him with the drum, until I get through his armour and kill him. He wont be able to come on the attack as hes much slower than me, so in addition, stick close to him and reverse when his axe fires, and drive forward when its fired.

Good luck Danny :wink:

Heat Semi-Final 3/16:
Shadow Zone Returns v All Scoop...

Shadow Zone had a good round in the eliminators, defeating Fire and Ice. But Steven could be a tougher opponent, not so much the design that Shadow Zone can fight well...Let see how it goes..

All Scoop is short for... Click on an archive, Im never typing it again!!
In the eliminator it pitted an old hand, Back to Rock III and is now a hot favourite to get the heat!

Booth 1: Kody Kunz
Booth 2: Steven McGregor

5,4,3,2,1, ELIMINATE!

Shadow Zone seems to be lining up a flipper attack rather than a ramming onslaught with the front scoop, as Kody has turned around and seems to be trying to get around Steves rear end!
But All Scoop is wiser and turns to meet the attack, meeting Shadow Zone head on! Steven hits Kodys flipping arm with his axe, and pushes it across the arena into the pit release tyre!
To get Steven away Kody fires the arm and flings the axe off, before turning around and getting under the side of All Scoop, ramming it into the corner! The spike turns Kody over and Steven comes in on the attack, hitting with the axe again and lifting with the scoop! Steven carries Shadow Zone toward the side wall and tries to dump it out! Shadow Zone fires the flipper in desparation, but to no avail as Steven has already let go!

THE CAMERA TRACKS ARE DAMAGED!

Kodys gone and has damaged my camera
All Scoop goes through to the heat final!

Coming Next:
D.V.D v Supreme Glory Omega

And a question I want to ask:
Would this 64 robot tournament classify as a major?

[joey_picus]

Robot SMASH!!

Yep, I dont really understand why its like that but I believe tournaments with more than 40 robots are major...

[paulc]

Robot SMASH!!

Its 48 or more.

Heat Semi-Final 4/16:
D.V.D v Supreme Glory Omega

D.V.D knocked Iron Awe 5 OOTA in round one, proving the power of its drum. Daniels lexan armour may prove no match for a weapon of this calibre, but will Pauls wheels hold up to that axe?

Supreme Glory Omega is a seasoned veteran of my tournaments. It started badly in the eliminator round, getting shoved around by Dead Horse Beater. But eventually Franks base armour proved too weak and the axe died after the co2 canister was destroyed.

Booth 1: Paul Cuomo
Booth 2: Daniel Stickler

5,4,3,2,1, DECAPITATE!

D.V.D starts spinning up, but in comes SGO and slams it into the arena wall! Daniel bashes D.V.D with the axe, and Paul keeps spinning up the drum as he struggles to get away. Finally he breaks free and runs a short way before turning to face SGO, which starts quaking and scarpers! Paul comes in from behind and hits SGO with the drum! A rear panel now has a nice gash in it and SGO is flipped upon impact! Daniel quickly self-rights and comes back on the attack, bashing D.V.D once again with that powerful axe! D.V.D keeps spinning up that drum, but when he attacks he finds he cant, because Daniel has got his axe stuck in a wheel rut and is holding D.V.D at arms length! Paul struggles, but Daniel pushes him across the arena and into the pit release tyre! He tries to pull Paul towards the chasm, but D.V.D gets free and slams into Supreme Glory Omega hard!
CRASH!
The already damaged panel flies off completely and SGO turns over again! Daniel self-rights and rams Paul again, this time into the corner! The spike flips Paul, but D.V.D is invertible and continues its run, spinning up and coming on the attack again!
CRASH!
This impact does less damage than the previous hit, but still dents the side armour! But now Daniel decides enough is enough... And slams his axe into Pauls bodywork, making D.V.D shudder violently with the slam!
Theres no retaliation from D.V.D, so Supreme Glory rams it across the arena to finish off!

5,4,3,2,1, IMMOBILE!

Supreme Glory turns Blu-ray to meet All Scoop, while D.V.D is turned into a VHS!

Coming Next- A middleweight fight!
T-Minus v Claw and Axe
