FRFFT: Series Two: Redone!

Last time, BIACS-IS defeated reigning Heavyweight Champion The Hurting to get into the grand final. Next up, Typhoon takes on Blizzard in the Middleweight competition

From England, Blizzard MW!

Entered by Alex H. It uses screws to move around, so it could be classed as a walking robot. It pushed Doom into the pit to get to the semi-finals!

From Edinburgh in Scotland, Typhoon!

Entered by Will H. The spinning shell is the weapon. It was flipped over by Purer, but knocked out its safety link, winning by a judges decision.

Roboteers, stand by!

3-2-1: Activate!

Blizzards unique style of mobility may come in handy here as Typhoon chases after it. Those four spinning blades on Typhoon have caused so much damage before, but Blizzard charges towards it! OH! Blizzard knocked away, but it regains control. Typhoon is still spinning, but Blizzard comes in again! WHAT was that that came off?! It might have been one of the spikes on Blizzard, but Alex isnt fazed and charges at Typhoon again! The shell of Typhoon has stopped spinning, and Blizzard pushes it into the CPZ! The screws arent doing much damage, theyre scratching the paintwork on Typhoon. Will and the staff from the RAF base in Edinburgh cant get away from Blizzards grasp, and Alex is still showing he is in control by pushing Typhoon towards the angle grinder! Typhoon knocked free and runs away to the pit release button. The shell isnt working any more, I think. Blizzard SLAMS into the side of Typhoon, though, at 17mph! That was a mighty attack by Blizzard, and Typhoon was almost knocked onto it side! Blizzard pushes it towards the CPZ and SMASHES it against the wall! Typhoon has caused little damage in this fight. Blizzard is doing all the work. One of the screws has stopped spinning on it, though. Blizzard lets it go, and Typhoon tries to push it around, but Blizzard gets away. A very complex robot, is Blizzard. The screws can make it go sideways if it wants to. OH! It rushes Typhoon and SLAMS it against the angle grinder again! The judges are looking on. The last ten seconds count down. Typhoon gets away, but Blizzard rams it from the side and pushes it towards the pit...OH! Typhoon manages to get away from the edge. It slams into Blizzard at the end.

Cease!

Not exactly a battle of weapons, but a battle of force. The judges still have to make a decision, though.

Blizzard MW: S: 2 C: 3 D: 1 A: 3 Total: 9

Typhoon: S: 2 C: 1 D: 1 A: 2 Total: 6

It was close, but Blizzard is the winner!

See you later with Semi Final 2

FRFFT: Series Two: Redone!

Against Complete Control I will aim to use my superior speed and controllability to get to the side and flip it. It has no srimech, so once flipped its over and out. good luck

FRFFT: Series Two: Redone!

There have been many shocks so far, but how more will there be? Lets find out in FRFFT: Series Two: Semi Final Two!

First, the last Superheavyweight fight before the Grand Final. Vertigo will be taking on The Red Knight

From England, The Red Knight!

Entered by Alex. Its a box on wheels with a rotating turret on top, at the end of which is a scoop and a spinning flywheel. Superheavyweight 2nd Seed Ziggy was beaten to a pulp by this new robot that looks a favourite for the title.

From England, Vertigo!

Entered by Lewis. A six-wheel drive box wedge with a Co2 powered flipper. It pushed Cause and Effect into the pit to win the first round.

Roboteers, stand by!

3-2-1: Activate!

The Red Knight makes the first move and charges at Vertigo, but Vertigo turns and gets under the side! OH! It avoids the turret and THROWS The Red Knight over! The Red Knight self-rights, but Vertigo takes advantage and FLIPS it again! Smashing The Red Knight into the wall! The Red Knight self-rights again and turns to face the side of Vertigo. Vertigo charges, but the turret of The Red Knight turns and Vertigo misses a flip! OUCH! The flywheel makes a massive TEAR down the side of Vertigo, and Lewis backs away. The Red Knight charges and SMASHES into the side again! Another gash! Vertigo turns and SLAMS into the back of The Red Knight! OH! It flips The Red Knight up, but not over! In fact, the spinning disc of The Red Knight DIGS into the arena floor! Vertigo flips again and The Red Knight is thrown over again! It self-rights, but Vertigo pushes it over the flame pit. No damage, though. The Red Knights turret turns to face the front of Vertigo. Vertigo backs away, but Alex gives chase! The turret is automatically powered by a sensor, but Vertigo manages to get under and flip The Red Knight again, but not over! Vertigo pushes it towards the wall and ALMOST flips it out! The Red Knight crashes back down to earth and OH! The turret turns into the front of Vertigo and the armour of Vertigo is buckled back a bit! The Red Knight SMASHES it again, and Vertigo is spun away! It recovers and tries to get around the back of The Red Knight, but the turret turns to face the back and it clips Vertigo. Another dent, but Vertigo gets a push from the other side and FLIPS The Red Knight into the pit release button! The Red Knight turns, but Vertigo pushes it...HA-HA! The disc rips the pit release button apart! Vertigo pushes The Red Knight into the arena wall. Another CRASH! Vertigo flips The Red Knight up, but not over. I think one of the teeth from The Red Knights disc is caught in the wall. The last ten seconds count down. The Red Knight cant get away, but Vertigo gets under and FLIPS! The Red Knight crashes back down, its free now, but it goes to the judges!

Cease!

A good fight. Lets see what the judges say.

The Red Knight: S: 2 C: 2 D: 3 A: 2 Total: 9

Vertigo: S: 2 C: 2 D: 1 A: 3 Total: 8

The Red Knight is the winner. Well done to Alex, he has TWO robots in the Grand Final.

Next up, Deadly Lampshade and Little Flipper 3!

See you then

FRFFT: Series Two: Redone!

Welcome back. After a short break, FRFFT: Series Two: Semi Final Two has reached the last featherweight fight before the grand final. Who will meet Sith in the next round?

From Wales, Deadly Lampshade!

Entered by Daniel. It battered Isolation and sent it into the pit. The weapon is a spinning shell, but it has no scrimech.

From England, Little Flipper 3!

Entered by Paul. It threw Tidal Wave around to win on a judges decision. The weapon is a CO2 powered flipper.

Roboteers, stand by!

3-2-1: Activate!

Deadly Lampshade spins up, but Little Flipper goes straight for it! OH! Sparks fly, and Little Flipper is spun away! Its still working, and it comes in for another try. Deadly Lampshade hasnt been slowed down, but Paul comes in again and CRASHES into it! Something came off, but Deadly Lampshades shell was stopped in the process. Daniel runs away, but Little Flipper chases after it and GETS UNDER! OH! Deadly Lampshade ALMOST tipped over, but it crashes back down. Little Flipper is relentless and pushes it into the pit release button! Down it goes, but Deadly Lampshade gets away and spins up again. Little Flipper follows, but Deadly Lampshade hits it first! OUCH! The flipper has almost been buckled sideways! Deadly Lampshade comes in again and a GASH is made in the side of Little Flipper. It recovers, but Deadly Lampshade RAMS into it! Sparks fly! Another dent in the side of Little Flipper. Paul cant seem to do anything! Did that hit immobolise Little Flipper? I think so! Refbot comes in. Little Flipper is still moving on one side, but OH! Deadly Lampshade hit it from behind and AGAIN! Little Flipper pushed against the wall! Daniel really wants to hold onto the title! Little Flipper isnt moving any more. Its mobiliy has been greatly impaired, and Refbot comes in to count it out. It almost had it won, but Deadly Lampshade came back and is the winner!
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10!

Cease!

Little Flipper cut down to size!
Deadly Lampshade goes through!

The first two grand finals have been set up. This is how they look

Superheavyweights: Uberforce 2.0 VS The Red Knight

Featherweights: Sith VS Deadly Lampshade

See you later. If any tactics give me and idea of how the fights should be done out, I might get two done in the same go!

[alex_holt]

FRFFT: Series Two: Redone!

Well, with Sith I only need get one good attack in and then its over. Im not going to self right it after that, I dont like tempting fate lol.

As for Uberforce, avoid getting inbetween it and the anythign that might kill me, the weapon does its own work so beyond playing it defensively there isnt much I can do.

[eene]

FRFFT: Series Two: Redone!

Welcome back to the semi-finals of FRFFT: Series Two. Next, Armoured Wedgie takes on Maleficent in a Heavyweight battle

From Wales, Maleficent!

Entered by Daniel. This box with a scoop and disc on the front beat Achilles in a judges decision. Itll be keeping the spinning disc for this battle

From England, Armoured Wedgie!

Entered by Lewis. It threw Nitro-Gene 5.0 out of the arena using its Co2 powered flipper.

Roboteers, stand by!

3-2-1: Activate!

Maleficent charges at Armoured Wedgie and tries to get around the side, but Armoured Wedgie turns first and FLIPS it over! Maleficent is invertible, so that wont effect it, but it cant get under anything. Armoured Wedgie tries to get under the upside down scoop, but Maleficent turns and tries to push from the side again. It does so, but Armoured Wedgie turns and THROWS Maleficent the right way up again! Maleficent recovers and now it RAMS into Lewiss robot and pushes it against the wall! Sparks fly from the disc, but Armoured Wedgie gets away. Maleficent comes in again! OH! Armoured Wedgie almost tipped over, but Maleficent got under anyway and pushed it into the pit release button! How much damage is the disc doing, though. A few scratches on the side of it, but nothing else. OH! And it flips Maleficent over again! And again! Maleficent gets away, but it is still upside down. Armoured Wedgie gives chase and tries to flip it, but Maleficent turns and SMASHES into the side, pushing Armoured Wedgie into the angle grinder! Armoured Wedgie gets away, but Maleficent rams into it again. Armoured Wedgie turns and THROWS Daniels robot over the right way up. Maleficent turns to use the scoop again, and it gets under Armoured Wedgie and pushes it into Refbot! Armoured Wedgie gets away from there, but Maleficent comes in from the back and OHH! Almost into the pit! Into the wall, Armoured Wedgie! It turns and flips Maleficent...INTO the pit! Its all over!

Cease!

Maleficent in the pit!
Armoured Wedgie goes into the next round!

Later on

Hyper-Ventilate VS Complete Control

FRFFT: Series Two: Redone!

From England, Hyper-Ventilate

This robot beat ROID in the first round to win. Lewis entered it. The weapon is a lifting arm between two wedges. The wheels are exposed, though.

From Canada, Complete Control!

Entered by Paul. It won a narrow fight with Hazard to win. The forklift hasnt been fully repaired, but well see what it can still do.

Roboteers, stand by!

3-2-1: Activate!

The last battle before the Grand Final. Hyper-Ventilate turns to face away from Complete Control, but it charges and pushes Hyper-Ventilate across the arena. Lifting it up! The forks are working on Complete Control. Hyper-Ventilate falls off, upside down! It doesnt matter, it can work any way up. Complete Control turns, but now Hyper-Ventilates lifting arm gets under the side! Slowly, its lifted up and onto its side? No! Complete Control crashes back down. It presses the pit release button. Hyper-Ventilate pushes from the side and Complete Control lifted up again...and ONTO its top! Complete Control has been flipped over, and it hasnt got a self-righting mechanism! Hyper-Ventilate pushes it to face the pit, but Refbot comes in first.

[eene]

FRFFT: Series Two: Redone!

Welcome to FRFFT: Series Two: The Grand Final!

We are left with 8 robots. First, Armoured Wedgie and BIACS-IS!

From England, Armoured Wedgie!

A wedge with a Co2 powered flipper. It flipped Nitro-Gene 5.0 out of the arena in Round One, and then flipped Maleficent into the pit in Round Two. It was entered by Lewis!

From England, BIACS-IS!

It battered 2nd Revenge of Black Death in Round One, and then destroyed The Hurting in Round Two. It is a pyramid with four arms that when lifted, reveal a spinning disc. It was entered by Will.

Roboteers, stand by!

3-2-1: Activate!

Armoured Wedgie needs to avoid that spinning disc of BIACS-IS, which raises its arms. That disc has caused so much damage. Armoured Wedgie charges...but BIACS-IS backs away. Armoured Wedgie follows it and the arms on BIACS close! OH! Armoured Wedgie FLIPS it onto its side! BIACS self-rights, but Armoured Wedgie pushes into it again and FLIPS it onto the flame pit! BIACS recovers and its arms come up again. It charges at Armoured Wedgies side AND OUCH! A gash down the side of Armoured Wedgie! Armoured Wedgie turns to face Wills robot, but it comes in again and SOMETHING comes off! It was probably superficial, but Armoured Wedgie, who was on top at the beginning, might be heading out, here. OH! BIACS smashes into the back of Armoured Wedgie and the armour has a SPLIT in it! Armoured Wedgie turns and gets under, but it misses BIACS and flips at thin air! Sparks fly as BIACSs disc clips Armoured Wedgie on the side, another piece of metal flies off! BIACS closes its arms and presses the pit release button, but Armoured Wedgie comes in and FLIPS it ALMOST out of the arena! That was close! OH! BIACSs arms opened and Armoured Wedgie went into the disc. A small gash in the wedge, but both of them are dangerously close to the pit. OUCH! BIACS whacks Armoured Wedgie in the back again! The back armour looks loose! And again! Armoured Wedgie is facing the pit, but it cant get away. OH! BIACS smashed into it and that time, Armoured Wedgie was pushed over the pit! Its lost drive on one side, and...OHH! Another whack and it crashes into the pit! A few bolts fall off, but its all over for Armoured Wedgie! What a fight!

Cease!

Armoured Wedgie stripped down!
BIACS-IS is the Heavyweight Champion!

Well done to BIACS-IS!

Next up: Hyper-Ventilate VS Blizzard MW

[Guest]

FRFFT: Series Two: Redone!

FRFFT: Series Two: Redone!

Sorry, Lewis

[matty_haka]

FRFFT: Series Two: Redone!

Wooooohooooooooooo!

Unlucky Lewis, congrats for putting up a good fight

[eene]

FRFFT: Series Two: Redone!

Welcome back to the Grand Final of Series Two of FRFFT. So far, BIACS-IS became the heavyweight champion by pushing Armoured Wedgie into the pit. Next, we have two middleweight robots: Blizzard MW and Hyper-Ventilate.

From England, Blizzard MW!

Entered by Alex. It uses two screws to move around, and can even go sideways with them. It pushed Doom into the pit in the first round, then beat Typhoon on a judges decision in the semi-final. Not much damage from it yet, though.

From England, Hyper-Ventilate!

Entered by Lewis, this robot is two wedges with a lifting arm in the middle. It beat ROID on a judges decision, then pushed Complete Control into the pit in the last round. The wheels are exposed, though.

3-2-1: Activate!

Hyper-Ventilate charges straight at Blizzard, but it gets away, sideways, I should add. Now Alex charges at the front, but Hyper-Ventilate raises its arm and Blizzard rides up the front, allowing Hyper-Ventilate to push it around, but Blizzard falls off. Hyper-Ventilate tries to get around the back of Blizzard to push it, but Blizzard gets away again. It turns around, and Hyper-Ventilate gets the arm under the side, but once again, Blizzards odd design allows it to get away. Now it rams into the side of Hyper-Ventilate and pushes it into the angle grinder! Hyper-Ventilate tries to drag itself away, but Blizzard gets under. No damage caused, though as it pushes Hyper-Ventilate into the CPZ! Hyper-Ventialte gets away to the centre of the arena. Blizzard follows, but Hyper-Ventilate manages to get to it before it can react and lifts it up from the front! Blizzard falls off, but Hyper-Ventilate gets under with the wedges, only for Alex to escape again. Hyper-Ventilate turns and tries to get under it again, but Blizzard comes in and pushes it into the corner. Hyper-Ventilate lifts itself up, but Blizzard gets under it and the front screws could cause some damage to it, but at the moment, its still OK, Hyper-Ventilate. OH! It gets overturned by the rotational force of the screws! Against the wall, but it uses the arm to bring it back into the fight. OUCH! Blizzard came in with another charge there! Hyper-Ventilate escapes, but Blizzard gets around from the sides and pushes it into Refbot! Hyper-Ventilate overturned again, and Blizzard pushes it into the pit release button! Hyper-Ventilate self-rights, and it tries to stop the screws with the arm, but Blizzard is too powerful! The last ten seconds count down! Blizzard pushes one way, but Hyper-Ventilate is holding its ground still! The judges will have to decide! Blizzard on top at the end, I think.

Cease!

The judges go into the arena and look over the robots. They have a big decision to make here.

Blizzard MW: S: 3 C: 3 D: 1 A: 3 Total: 10

Hyper-Ventilate: S: 2 C: 2 D: 1 A: 1 Total: 6

The FRFFT: Series Two Middleweight Champion is Blizzard! Well done to Alex!

Next time, The Red Knight will take on Uberforce 2.0. And after that, the awards, as usual. They are

Most Original Entry

FRFFT: Series Two: Redone!

Sorry I havent been updating it, but things have been happening at home

Welcome back to FRFFT: Series Two: The Grand Final! Next, we have the superheavyweight final, with UberForce 2.0 and The Red Knight, two newcomers

From England, The Red Knight!

Entered by Alex. This robot is a box with a turret on top, at the end of which is a scoop and a spinning disc. It beat 2nd seed Ziggy and Vertigo to get here.

From England, Uberforce 2.0!

Entered by AJ. A ramming robot like Storm II, it pushed Shrederator Supreme into the pit and immobolised Toro to get into the final.

Roboteers, stand by!

3-2-1: Activate!

The Red Knights disc might be too high to combat Uberforce, but Uberforce tries to get around the side. The turret, powered by a sensor device, turns to face AJs robot, but it gets under and...The Red Knight falls off the front! It turns around with the disc and Uberforce...OH! Sparks fly as the disc hits the front wedge of Uberforce. Two great newcomers here! The Red Knights turret turns to face the side again, but Uberforce RAMS into it anyway! Sparks fly again, and The Red Knight gets away. Uberforce turns around and before The Red Knights turret turns to face it, it pushes Alex into the pit release button! The Red Knight rebounds off the wall and turns around to face the PIT! Ohh, that was close! Uberforce crashes into the front again, but this time the turret pushes it aside! Thats the defensive weapon of The Red Knight, the offensive weapon is the disc. So far, it hasnt caused any damage though. Uberforce gets under the side and pushes The Red Knight over to the pit! OHHH! ALMOST in, The Red Knight. The disc hits Uberforce on the side this time, and a slight gash is caused! These two are dancing very close to defeat here! Uberforce takes another hit from the disc, but with 6 wheels, it is more powerful than The Red Knight in pushing power, I would imagine. The Red Knight gets away and the turret turns to face Uberforce as it CRASHES into it again! Sparks fly, but still, no damage to the front of Uberforce. A few scratches, but now Uberforce is under the back and OUCH! It pushes The Red Knight into the wall! The Red Knight recovers and turns to face AJ again, but Uberforce looks like its trying to lure The Red Knight towards the pit again. The Red Knight charges at it, but Uberforce gets under the scoop and pushes The Red Knight over the flame pit. The Red Knight gets RAMMED into the angle grinder, now! Sparks fly, but no damage. Uberforce pushes The Red Knight into the CPZ. The turret on it turns around again and the disc clips Uberforce on the front again. A good battle so far. Very little damage on both robots, it would seem as the last ten seconds count down. The Red Knight crashes into Uberforce again, but Uberforce pushes it towards the pit! Will it get it in...NOO! The Red Knight dangling over the edge, but time is up!

Cease!

A good battle from both robots. Uberforce finishing strong at the end, but its up to the judges now.

Uberforce 2.0: S: 3 C: 3 D: 1 A: 3 Total: 10

The Red Knight: S: 3 C: 2 D: 1 A: 2 Total: 8

The Red Knight is dismounted from its horse!
Uberforce 2.0 is the winner!

Well done to AJ!

Next, its the awards. Any votes?

Hope the fight was OK. Very sorry if it wasnt.
