Oh No!!! It's VRW 5!!!

Re: Oh No!!! It's VRW 5!!!

You only need 1 realie, and seeing as 259 was less successful then Storm II, I'll leave you with 1 vapour spot left.

Re: Oh No!!! It's VRW 5!!!

wow storm 2 is seeded wooooot

but on a serious note

Smashy Smashy
Weight: 100kg
Shape: Simply, a box with 2 wedges at the front: one on the left, and one on the right. There is 20cm of width in between the 2 wedges for the meat tenderizer to come down, like Wedge of Doom
Colour: Black.
Dimensions:90cm x 70cm x 20cm
Drive: 4x 24v S28-400 Magmotors, powered by 6x NiCad Battlepacks.
Locomotion: 6 externally mounted solid rubber wheels with aluminum boron carbide hubs.
Armour: 5mm titanium, except the front wedge which is 8mm titanium,
Speed: 25mph
Ground Clearance: 0mm at front, and 5mm at sides and back.
Turning Circle: 0m
Weapons: A powerful axe, with a 3kg meat tenderizer for an axehead. The tenderizer's blades are diamond tipped, and it can hit an opponent and do damage when the axe springs back to its rested position, like Terrorhurtz. The axe itself is powered by a 2.2kg 750psi Co2 tank feeding gas to a 90mm bore 400mm stroke ram which pushes the axe forward, giving near 600kgs of force.
Srimech: The axe self-rights the robot. If it gets stuck on its side, repeatedly firing the axe will cause it to land on its back or right way up.
Strengths: Powerful axe. Also very maneuverable.
Weaknesses: Exposed wheels and average armor.
Bio: Once a Team Corsair machine, Always a Team Corsair machine. Just because the big, bad machine using a 3kg tenderizer as an axe isn't Mark's doesn't mean it's any less lethal though...
Win/Loss Ratio: N/A

Come on people, 1 more spot to be filled!!!

[daliad100]

Re: Oh No!!! It's VRW 5!!!

Just let me come up with another few vapours and I'll take that last spot

[corsair_lightning]

Re: Oh No!!! It's VRW 5!!!

Bumping this.

Jordan, I really need your stats so I can post the draw.

[daliad100]

Re: Oh No!!! It's VRW 5!!!

Sorry guys, just got my pc back and am still finding everything.

Currently my mouse is dead so I will find another/put in some fresh batteries then post stats. (It's a pain to do everything using the keyboard)

Re: Oh No!!! It's VRW 5!!!

Personally I wouldn't want to enter this tournament no matter who it was written by, there are simply too many robots entered by too few people. Either robots from the same vapourboteer will frequently be drawn against each other, or unfair battles will be written to avoid that.

[corsair_lightning]

Re: Oh No!!! It's VRW 5!!!

This one's supposed to essentially be a filler due to VRW4 being hypoed. Also, I don't think I could get enough people for a 48-bot tourney, so meh...

If you have some way I can get 8 people, then by all means tell me, and I'll add 4 more spots.

EDIT: Oh Liam, I mentioned earlier in this thread:

Instead of doing fights, I will instead find out the winner via using the percentages first used in Nick's Byte Size tournament. It's a more specific and seems like a simpler(good for you all, no more crappy fights) solution to all of the complaints.

[swimm3r]

Re: Oh No!!! It's VRW 5!!!

I think you're missing the point Mark.

e.g.
4 people entering 1 robot = nice small tourney, guaranteed no dodgy draws
4 people entering 2 or 3 robots = still good, more chance of dodgy draws
4 people entering 6 robots = not even enough for people to have no more than 1 robot in each heat

EDIT: What difference does that make? :P

[corsair_lightning]

Re: Oh No!!! It's VRW 5!!!

I know, but:

If you have some way I can get 8 people, then by all means tell me, and I'll add 4 more spots.

And as far as I know, aside from possibly getting down on my knees and begging, there is no way I can convince 4 more people to enter 6 robots apiece.

Re: Oh No!!! It's VRW 5!!!

What he's saying is ask for less robots.

Also, I'm using All Bar One and something I've named Frustum when I can make the parts fit and the stats have been checked.

Name: All Bar One

Weight: 100 kg

Shape: A very wide paralelogram wedge

Colour: Battleship Grey

Dimensions: 33cm * 110 cm * 14 cm

Drive: 2 * LEM 130 (95S) on 49.5 V with 6 * 15 cell A123 ANR26650M1 battery packs

Locomotion: 2* 15cm diameter 5cm wide titanium hubbed wheels covered in urethane rubber

Armour: 7mm hardox on the wedges, 5mm hardox top and bottom, 10mm hardox on the ends and heavy shock proofing to protect vital components

Speed: 29mph

Ground Clearance: 0mm at the wedges, varies along the sides to 5mm at the back although technically more due to inverted wedge

Turning Circle: 0 cm

Weapon: Translational spinner and rammer dishing out 8.4 KJ when top speed ramming

While spinning:

18.2 KJ @ 500 rpm
73.1 KJ @ 1000 rpm

(now it might kill itself)
164.5 KJ @ 1500 rpm
292.5 KJ @ 2000 rpm

Srimech: Invertible

Notes: A bar shaped translational spinner that can ram if stopped spinning due to it having two wheel drive.
The robots innards are pushed as far as possible to the sides to maximise weight there with the center being hollow.

what he said ^

Re: Oh No!!! It's VRW 5!!!

I pretty much just said what you said.

[swimm3r]

Re: Oh No!!! It's VRW 5!!!

True :P but Mark doesn't understand anything when I say it

[corsair_lightning]

Re: Oh No!!! It's VRW 5!!!

alright then. All you have to enter is 4 vapours(you can use realies if you don't have enough vapours), and I'll automatically eliminate 2 robots from the 3 people entered. Mainly the lower-ranked robots, as they aren't necessary.
