[Guest]

Yeah I know, I just finished Robot SMASH!!
But this tourney will be ideal for me, as it could go on forever. I may start soon, I may not start until 2012 (or I will start before then!)

Heres the deal, its an extreme tournament, a spin-off from The Easter Bunny. Im using The Burrow V2, a new arena, and possibly The Easter Bunny House robots if I get them ready in time.

Im doing one event at a time, so dont start sending in loads of stats because theyll be ignored! Ill state the rules before I open each event. This is the events list, I may add or take away from it:
All-Stars
Annihilator
Challenge Belt
World Championship
Tag Team Terror
New Blood
Axes/flippers/spinners etc.
Football
Pinball
Sumo Basho
SHWs
MWs
LWs
FWs
AWs
More......................

KK? Anything Ive forgotten, just say

What does ETC stand for?

[Guest]

ETC08 Extreme

ETC stands for Easter Bunny Tribute Championships, but I left out the B, I dont know why

The Arena:
A 20 x 20m2 square with two CPZs opposite each other. A 2 x 2m2 pit in one corner and flipping spikes in a triangular formation in the other.
4 starting squares, one in the middle of each wall. These are surrounded by macrolon fences that retract into the floor on the word ACTIVATE. Kilsaws are placed around the arena, there are two of them and they come out of the floor.
The pit release button is situated just on the wall near the pit itself.
The flame pit is diagonally opposite the pit release.

Event 1- Annihilator 1
I need 18 robots, so 9 people each to enter 2 please. Therell be six three-way mayhems with one robot advancing.
Rules:
100kg for ALL robots
Stats can be laid out in any format, but must include:
Weight
Shape
Weaponry
Armour
Power
Speed
Ground Clearance
Turning Circle
One strength
One weakness
Colour
More is welcome!

If 50% of a clusterbot is immobile the whole team is out. Passive weaponry is allowed, flying robots are not.

Ill have No Objections and the Box, for a change:

Paramagnetic LOX Box
WEIGHT: 100kgs
DIMENSIONS: 95 x 95 x 35 cm
SHAPE: A hexagon with wedges on all sides, like Turtle Road Kill with two fewer sides.
COLOUR: Bright white, decorated with various warning triangles, symbols and signs in various flourescent colours.
DRIVE: 6 S28-400 Magmotors running from 6 NiMh battlepacks, each driving a machined aluminium cylinder with a urethane rubber screw thread on it, very similar to Alex Holts drive system on Blizzard. The screws are located inside the shell parallel to the armour plates, and using various combinations of rotation make the robot completely omnidirectional - only with a LOT more traction than if omniwheels were used. It can also spin in place to turn, but the design means it shouldnt need to that much.
SPEED: 12mph max
GROUND CLEARANCE: 10mm, but all sides have hinged skirts making it 0.
ARMOUR: 4mm Hardox on all six wedges, with the top being 10mm carbon fibre/polypropylene honeycomb material and the baseplate 5mm aluminium.
WEAPONS: None as such
SRIMECH: A linear actuator driven bar in the top of the robot, that self rights it in about 2 seconds.
NOTES: Components inside are shock mounted for protection against things. Has a large orange flashing hazard light on the top. Dont ask about the name, but please note that LOX is all capitals.
STRENGTHS: HUGE traction, uniqueish, good pusher and omnidirectional - in fact, it works best without turning around.
WEAKNESSES: Lack of weaponry, so-so armour

NOs stats are on Kodys boards, the turning circles for both are 0 since I dont usually put that in the stats.

Ill be using a judging system much simpler than the Mini-Tournament one:
Damage- out of 10, x 3
Aggression- out of 10, x 2
Control- out of 10, x 2
Dominance- out of 5, x 6

I think Chriss are in the improvement thread archive through March 11 - thats what I use anyway. It would be easier if he had a forum or something :P

Unfortunately, I dont, and Im not really that good to have one. I do have my stats on a Notepad document for easy access, but I was on the wrong computer at the time. But, for easy access, here they are...

LEPROSY INFECTION

Weight; 100 kilos
Body Shape; Tetanus Booster
Speed; 18mph
TC; 0
GC; 6mm
Wheels; 4 inner, top sticking out. Hinged mini-skirts hang from the side, and these protect the wheels from low lying discs.
Armour; 7mm titanium
Power; 3x 12v batteries, powered by S28-400 Magmotors. LEM130 motor for the drum.
Colour; A disgusting shade of lime green.
Weapons; A very large, very dangerous vertical drum, capable of reaching speeds of 4000rpm. The teeth on the drum are curved upwards so they can flip as well as damage and very sharp at the tip. There is a reason for this explained below. By the drum are two hindged wedge type devices, which drive oppodents onto the drum.
Srimech; The robot is invertable. Bars along the side and back prevent stranding. The wheel flaps, both on top and bottom, are set so the robot can still run inverted without getting stranded. Once upside down, the teeth of the drum gouge out robot parts.
Inspiration; Named after the disease which causes the skin to flake and fingers and toes to drop off...namely because the robot does something similar. The basic idea came from an episode of The Simpsons.
Strengths; Drum, control is pretty good
Weaknessess; Wheels may be vulnerable to axes

AXE-O-LOTL

Weight: 100 kilos
Body Shape: Comengetorix
Speed: 20mph
TC: 0
GC: 6mm
Wheels: 4 inner
Armour: 3.25mm Hardox all around.
Power: Same stuff as Storm 2 and Cyclone Force uses.
Colour: Has interchangable panels. One set is pure black, the other pure white with pink tinges.
Weapons: A very nasty pneumatic axe, with the power of Dominator 2. The head is diamond tipped, and the whole weapon is VERY persistant. It can fire about 40 times in one fight.
Srimech: The axe rights the robot. The robots body is designed so it cant be side stranded.
Inspiration: My favourite amphibian, the axolotl.
Strengths: Powerful weaponary
Weaknessess: Obviously a limited CO2 supply.
