My realie will be Hexadecimator, most UTD version.
ORKA MK4
Weight: 100 kilos
Body Shape: Behemoth
Speed: Some 15mph
TC: 0
GC: 8mm, 0mm at front.
Wheels; 6 inner
Armour; 7mm titanium
Power; 3x 12v batteries, powered by S28-400 Magmotors, at 24v.
Colour; Black with white patches
Weapons; A Behemoth like bucket scoop, made from titanium 5mm thick, and quite capable of lifting 300 kilos. It has a claw like device, also pneumatic, to grab an oppodent, like the claw on Mantis. The scoop is pnumatically powered by CO2, and has about 45 odd flips.
Srimech: It has a pneumatic dorsal fin piston that self-rights the robot, ala Vlad The Impaler.
Inspiration; Ive always liked Orcas. Adding the K made it sound more dangerous.
Strengths; Weapon
Weaknessess: Hard to turn
DIE-CERATOPS RE-INVERTUS
Weight; 100 kilos
Body Shape: Wheely Big Cheese
Speed; 15mph
TC; 0
GC; 0mm at front, 10mm at sides and back.
Wheels; 4 inner, the back two sticking out only slightly,
Armour; 8mm titanium
Power; 3x 12v batteries, powered by S28-400 Magmotors, at 24v.
Colour; Green, with Killer Carrot style wrinkles, mouth and eyes. One of the eyes has a plaster over it, the other is a black eye. A few bandages are painted on this time.
Weapons: A huge Wheely Big Cheese style pneumatic CO2 flipper, capable of flipping a tonne or so.
Srimech; As the name suggests, the robot runs inverted. Bars prevent side strandings, and the back is rounded, so stranding THAT way is outta the question. The flipper works upside down.
Inspiration; Ive always liked Dinosaurs. This is a pun of Triceratops. The Invertus part is pretty obvious.
Strengths; The ability to work upside down and still be able to use its weapon, now easier to control.
Weaknessess: Facing more agile vapourbots
CYCLONE FORCE 3
Weight; 100 kilos
Body Shape; Storm 2 without the wedge (at first, see set-ups for more detail)
Speed; 20mph
TC; 0
GC; Side is 0mm due to skirts. Otherwise, 10mm. See set-ups for front GC
Wheels; 6 inner
Armour; 11mm Titanium.
Power; LEM130s at 36 volts, ala Storm 2. 3x12v batteries.
Colour; A blue-ish grey tone all over.
Weapons; The robot has 3 set-ups...
SET UP 1...An electric lifter device, similar to Storm 2. In theory, it can lift 190 kilos. The front makes a wedge and results in a 0mm GC. However, the wedge is useless upside down.
SET-UP 2...Two large 30 centimetre long spikes, powered by their own pneumatic system and running off CO2. The front with this GC is 10mm.
SET-UP 3...A simple bucket scoop, like X-Terminator. The scoop is static, but can get underneath virtually zero ground clearance. Its front is 0mm.
Srimech; The robot runs inverted, the sides are protected by the skirts and back stranding is impossible.
Inspiration; The original Cyclone was named because it is the name of a storm and it sounds threatening. The force came later, after it became a pusher.
Strengths;Raw power
Weaknessess;Limited control.
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
MEGA MASHER 2
Weight: 100 kilos
Body Shape: A Triangle shape, a bit like Inshredable (from Series 6). 0.85m in length and width, and 0.35m at its highest point. The sides are heavily angled, a bit like UFO in S7, only more so.
Speed: 15mph
TC: 0
GC; 0 at front, 6mm elsewhere.
Wheels; 6 inner, aranged in a 3-wheel-a-side formation. This means that four wheels are always on the ground at any one time.
Armour: A nice 3.25mm Hardox, all over.
Power: 3x 12v batteries, plus Bosch 750s at 36v.
Colour: Red and yellow.
Weapons; The front is a wedge, and the back has a nasty vertical titanium 35cm in diameter disc, powered by its own LEM130 motor and spinning at 2000 rpm. It can probably flip as well as damage.
Srimech: The robot can run inverted, with the sheer angling at the sides making stranding near impossible.
Inspiration; This is probably the only robot I have where I have had no inspiration. It just came as a good name.
Strengths: Power, weaponary
Weaknessess: New and untested design.
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.
And for the sake of having fun, which any Robot Combat tournament should be about...
SPRING-BOK!
Weight: 100 kilos
Body Shape: Firestorm.
Speed: 12mph
TC: 0.
GC: 0 at front, 7mm at sides.
Wheels: 2 inner.
Armour: 8mm titanium, covered in 2mm orange fur.
Power: 3x 12v batteries, powered by a couple of Magmotors (S28-400s).
Colour: Orange, thanks to the fur.
Weapons: A launch pad. Heres how it works...basically, the robots drive up the wedge, then the front panel, which is attached to four large car springs, fires outwards via hydraulics. A miniture piston device is attached to the panel to prevent it getting fired off, and also re-sets it. Should that fail, it does have a back-up plan (see notes).
Srimech: Two arms that extend around the side of the body, a bit like that of Philliper, only bottom hinged rather than top hinged, act as the Srimech.
Inspiration: Its named after an antelope.
Notes: This is the re-make of the former comedy yet highly sucessful robot Fluffitor, who won a previous Children In Need special. Has an in-built police siren which it activates if the going gets tough. The idea is that the oppodent will think hes about to be arrested then run off.
Strengths: Experience, unique weapon.
Weaknesses: Untested, Flammable, back-up plan probably wont work.
Personally, I cant wait for the draw - itll be a tourney to look forward to! You really have improved vastly since you first arrived. You were doing internet slang and writing very short fights, and not being organised. But now youre writing your 3rd major of the year - keep up the good work and good luck to AJ with PsycloniZer in defending the crown :wink:

Here are the, now new and improved with bolding and CAPITAL LETTERS,
TEAM CHEVRON OFFICIAL DOCUMENTS OF TACTICS AND PLANS TYPE THINGS, PART NUMERO UN
HEAT A
PsycloniZer vs. Eye of Ran vs. Storm II vs. With Or Without You
I think Id like to suggest a team up with the reigning champ here, if that isnt possible just avoid him like the plague. Go for WOWY first, with the blade spinning at usual power I should be able to take out one or both of the fairly easily, and then assist Psy in disposing of Storm. In theory. :P
HEAT B Nidhogg Evo vs. 259 vs. Exertion vs. Masamune
Im kind of relying on Masamune to turn 259 over early on here, does that count as a team up? :P If that happens, and even if it doesnt, I shall go for Exertion and...well...you know Nidhogg by now, you should be able to predict what Im going to say here...lift, crush, pit.
HEAT C
Black Panther vs. Lights! Camera! Traction! vs. two other robots I cant be bothered to scroll up to check the identity of and whose identities are irrelevant anyway considering the nature of LCT
Basically drive around and push things. Or hit them. Avoid anything in the arena thats not other robots but could damage me, including arena hazards (even though the armour should be good enough to protect against most of them) and the arena walls, and hope, really :P
HEAT D
Knyfe vs. Killotine: EVO vs. Leviathan vs. Gemini
Split, flip things.
HEAT E
Flick of the Wrist 2 vs. Hex Appeal vs. WORCK-ER vs. Symmetry
Ah, the debut of the Hex Appeal, which was such a bugger to actually make work. :P
Tactics here are to ask Marti if he wants to team up, as he can probably keep people distracted while we get in position, and then deliver WORCKER and Symmetry to us for their doom.
HEAT G
Wot, no fourth robot in the first melee? :P
For heats I-P, I shall wait for them to come up before any detailed tactics are made, but I am open to offers of teaming up on things.
