Fine then, um... remove 2 of the battlepacks, as I won't need them, and make the armour 6mm titanium/vanadium alloy.

Re: A special Robot Wars Fan Fiction Anniversary

mark, i dont belive you are allowed to change stats in the middle of a tornie...

Re: A special Robot Wars Fan Fiction Anniversary

If that's the case, then just keep the 110kg version, as I don't want to screw this tourney up with an Intercontinental shouting match.

3-2-1: Activate!

Traffic Warden heads straight for American Oil. Does it sense it to be the weakest here? American Oil turns away, only to be pushed by Theseus and FLIPPED! American Oil over, but it self-rights using its flipper. Super Gore Septua is trying to grab hold of OID, whose disc clips the side of it. Sparks fly, but nothing else. Crooked Evo, meanwhile presses the pit release button and backs away, bumping into American Oil who swings around and FLIPS them! Crooked Evo self-rights and goes on the attack of American Oil. Traffic Warden rams into the side of Super Gore Septua. I don't think it will fit in the crushers, though. It's too big. Theseus plows into BOTH of them and FLIPS! OH! Super Gore Septua is stuck on the arena side wall! Theseus gets under and NO! Super Gore Septua stays in and lives to fight another day! Kody Kunz, at the controls, relieved! Traffic Warden heads off in search of another robot, this time OID. Traffic Warden tries to grab it from behind, but OID turns around and hits it with the disc! That doesn't stop Traffic Warden, who pushes it ALMOST into the pit! Very close there! American Oil is being pushed by Crooked Evo into the CPZ! Mr Psycho is waiting and he brings his hammer down...onto the Titanium armour of American Oil! Crooked Evo flips it over! Super Gore Septua tries to grab OID again and succeeds! The claws can't pierce the Hardox though! OID tries to push back, but Super Gore Septua, with those tracks, has more traction and pushes OID towards Sir Killalot! American Oil hasn't done anything since Crooked Evo flipped it. I think it might be immobolised! Traffic Warden pushes it into Mr Psycho's CPZ again! Down comes the hammer! OOH! The top of American Oil has a dent in it now! Meanwhile, Sir Killalot attacks OID and grabs hold of it! Lifting it into the air and dropping it into its side! Crooked Evo rams into the back of Super Gore Septua as it backs off and flips it! That won't bother Super Gore Septua, it is invertible. Refbot comes in to count out American Oil. They looked very good, and its a shame they're going out here.
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10!
Mr Psycho hits American Oil with his hammer again! Traffic Warden tries to grab it, but I think it is too big. Mr Psycho grabs American Oil in his claws and lifts it high above the arena! OH! Crooked Evo pushed OID into the pit! That won't matter. American Oil is out, and Mr Psycho carries it to the drop zone! What's up there? It's a buoy! The crowd count down!
3-2-1!
Down comes the buoy and it CRUMPLES the top of American Oil! What a way to begin the annihilator! American Oil is out, and the other five go into the next round!

Cease!

American Oil is bust!
The other five robots go through to the next round!

I hope you liked that, but I'm getting the feeling you didn't. Sorry for the long wait as well, but a lot of things have happened to me recently.

Re: A special Robot Wars Fan Fiction Anniversary

OKay, now the major problem in that fight was that I should've gotten underneath CrOoKeD EvO whenever we collided, because his flipper doesn't touch the ground. It says in the stats that there is a 2mm ground clearance at the front, which means that the flipper doesn't touch the ground...

Also, how did American Oil suddenly die when it was hit by Psycho's hammer? From the way it looks, it appears that that 1 hammer hit removed all the shockproofing and killed by robot in one hit...

And Kody, please don't try to say I'm saying this just because I lost. Read CrOoKeD EvO's stats for yourself if you don't believe me...

Re: A special Robot Wars Fan Fiction Anniversary

Maybe it didn't attack you at the front?

[corsair_lightning]

Re: A special Robot Wars Fan Fiction Anniversary

The ground clearance stat of American Oil:


Ground Clearance: 0mm at the front due to extended wedge, and at the sides and back due to torsion-sprung 3.5mm titanium skirts. The springs are wrapped around a foam rod to prevent shock damage. 5mm without skirts.

And I don't see anything in the battle about me losing a skirt...

Re: A special Robot Wars Fan Fiction Anniversary

urm...mabey your wheel got punctured and therefor your robot hobbled, making the front go up and down and allowing me to slot my flipper under

[team_orr]

Re: A special Robot Wars Fan Fiction Anniversary

as you cansee im playing the THINGS THAT ARE NOT LIKLY TO HAPPEN IN A FIGHT BUT IM PICKING AT STRAWS game

[kodster]

Re: A special Robot Wars Fan Fiction Anniversary

Skirts don't always work...they only improve chances of defeating flippers, not flat out prevent them completely.

[corsair_lightning]

Re: A special Robot Wars Fan Fiction Anniversary

Well, ny question is: How did a robot with a 2mm ground clearance at the front with a flipper that doesn't touch the ground flip over American Oil? That's all I'm asking...

However, aside from my personal fight with Jack and CrOoKeD EvO, the fight was excellent.

Re: A special Robot Wars Fan Fiction Anniversary

personal fight? this is just a freindly bit of banter mark i didnt mean to upset you sorry if i did

[corsair_lightning]

Re: A special Robot Wars Fan Fiction Anniversary

No, it's okay. I believe I said that the wrong way. What I was referring to was our battle in the annihilator with our robots, and not me being angry at you for something you said. And I'm not angry at you. I'm just wondering how CrOoKeD EvO(The one with 2mm ground clearance, not the fixed one) managed to get under me and flip me.

Re: A special Robot Wars Fan Fiction Anniversary

Like I said, things have happened and my concentration isn't what it used to be anymore. I'm sorry to anyone who thinks the fight was inaccurate, the next one won't be
