Re: ROBOBASH SERIES 2!!!!

w00ty fight Sam and Andy, shame that Wedga had to go out this early I think

...did I enter ORAC? erm...I'm not sure if it matters much if I did or not, if I did then I will just avoid everything and hope the other two destroy themselves. It's all going to end badly XD

Re: ROBOBASH SERIES 2!!!!

I've not replied here in ages. Goodness, how rude of me!

HEAT J
ROUND 1
1. Mortis VS Obsidian VS Turbulence (14)
A rare real robot rumble! Turbulence to go through relatively easy, with Mortis winning a surprise JD. Close one, this.

2. Deliriium Tremors VS Orac VS TRAFFIC WARDEN
Delirium Tremors may be a bit awkward for Traffic Warden to grapple, so I'll aim for Orac instead. Scoop it up, clamp it up and dump it down the pit.

This is some good stuff thus far, Sam. Can't wait for the rest.

[kodster]

Re: ROBOBASH SERIES 2!!!!

gah, another spinner went through

I'll pick Mortis and Orac to bite the dust this coming heat

Re: ROBOBASH SERIES 2!!!!

I apologize for the HUGE lack of battles recently. A HUGE amount of schoolwork got me down and I had ZERO time to do this tournament. Like I said, I am not going to make any hypos or cancellations. Once again, I apologize. Hope you understand

[kodster]

Re: ROBOBASH SERIES 2!!!!

Must there be emphasis on such words? :P

Hope you don't give up the ghost Samuel, it's been good thus far.

[samuel3764]

Re: ROBOBASH SERIES 2!!!!

Right, I have some battles here

Sam: It€™s Heat J, and so far nine robots have lived to fight another moment. The carnage gets more intense with every heat, and there is more to come in this heat. So, ARE YOU READY TO PUSH BACK THE BOUNDARIES OF BRUTALITY?!!!!!!!

(CROWD CHEERS)

Sam: Oh yes, the crowd knows it. LET THE WAAAAAAAARS BEGIN!!!!!!!!!

(BATTLE 1!!!)

From Coleshill in Birmingham, and the 14th seeded machine, Turbulence!

The former UK champion of Roaming Robots has returned with a flipper powered by CO2. With 2 Bosch motors and plenty of traction, it€™s also got decent pushing power as well. However, as always, CO2 is limited on the machine.

From England, Mortis!

Mortis, a well-known Robot Wars veteran, is back! It€™s virtually unchanged, with the tanto blade and the lifting arm. However, the unreliability has been its downfall in the past. Will it have the same fate here?

From Hoogvilet in Holland, Obsidian!

You might have seen it in Robot Wars Series 5, but trust me, it€™s come a long way since it competed. Improved motors, a new axe, more powerful€¦ you name it. The axe can come down with a force of a jackhammer. Will this robot shine above all else? We€™ll find out!

Roboteers, Stand by€¦

Right, let€™s have a look at the drivers. There€™s Jack Orr with Turbulence, and Lian Walsh with Mortis in the first booth, and the other booth contains Leo Van Miert with Obsidian. The mysterious people who drive the house robots are secretly hiding somewhere€¦ wherever they are. The house robots will be Gorgon with massive fangs that crush other robots to bits€¦ and Matilda with the tusks and the pink arse of death.

3€¦ 2€¦ 1€¦ ACTIVATE!!!

So, off we go with the first battle of Heat J. Already we see Obsidian getting flipped. Now, Mortis gets underneath Obsidian and flips it over! Obsidian tries self-righting, but Mortis gets its axe down on the underbelly! Ouch, that is going to leave a mark€¦ and it has! Mortis has made a dent there, and that looks painful! Obsidian thankfully survives the attack; there is no major damage caused. Now, the Dutch machine self-rights and revs its motors up to speed! It slams into Mortis and retaliates by slamming the axe down! Not too much damage there, just a dent, and Turbulence comes in! Now, it gets underneath Mortis€™s ground clearance, and makes a HUGE FLIP! Oh man, what a flip that was, Mortis flies almost over the fence, but bounces back into the arena. Now, Obsidian comes in on Mortis, and slams into the side of the Robot Wars veteran! It gets its axe down and makes a nice dent in the top armour. Mortis drives away and attacks Turbulence and gets its axe down! However, very little damage is caused to it, despite the power of the axe. Mortis trudges away and goes to attack Turbulence! It gets the hammer down but still, the damage is minimal. Now, Turbulence gets underneath the side of Mortis, and now it flips Mortis over! Mortis self-rights using the lifting arm, and it slams into Obsidian€™s side! Now Obsidian is being hammered by the mighty axe blade of Mortis. It was a weapon that was very dangerous during the old days of Robot Wars. Now, Obsidian fights back and gets its axe down! Both robots take punishment, and dents can be seen in both robots. However, there are no particularly significant damages. Obsidian gets its axe down again, and we have got an axe battle going on! Turbulence meanwhile is staying out of trouble€¦ or is it? Turbulence charges at the two robots and CRASHES their party! Now, it gets under Mortis and takes it somewhere€¦ RIGHT INTO THE CAPABLE FLYWHEEL OF MATILDA!!!
CRASH!!!
OUCH, that€™s got to hurt! Mortis is thrown across the arena, and there is a huge gash in the side! The pit button has been activated by Turbulence meanwhile, but Mortis is not moving freely. I think there is something wrong inside after Matilda€™s flywheel hit Mortis. Oh dear€¦ Mortis is literally limping across the arena now, and Obsidian comes CHARGING at the Robot Wars veteran! Their axes both come down-- and it looks like both of their weapons are locked together for a brief time, but now both bots separate. Turbulence also gets in the action, and slams into Mortis and takes it for a ride into Matilda€™s flywheel AGAIN! Mortis tries desperately to flee--
CRASH!!!
Too little too late, I€™m afraid. The armour has a big gash in it, and the crowd is chanting for the pit. Mortis is not moving, and now Refbot gives the last rites by counting it out.
1€¦ 2€¦ 3€¦ 4€¦ 5€¦ 6€¦ 7€¦ 8€¦ 9€¦ 10!!!
€¦ and with that, Refbot counts out one of the most legendary robots in Robot Wars history. Now, Matilda moves in with the flywheel for the last time€¦
CRASH!!!
€¦ and that€™s it, Mortis is tossed into the pit. BOOM!

CEASE!

Mortis is slammed into submission and confined to the bottom of the pit.
Turbulence (14th Seed) and Obsidian go through to the 2nd Round!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sam: Welcome back to the 2nd battle of the night. We will get ready to put three more robots in the arena, but one may NOT come out in one piece.

(BATTLE 2!!!)

From Bedford, Delirium Tremors!

Delirium Tremors has enough power to drive its opponents delirious. It€™s pretty much a Barberous on steroids. It€™s a bit sluggish, but it€™s got six wheels and a nasty 29kg drum which spins at 3260RPM with 70kJ per hit. Now that is some serious power. Can you say, OUCH?! This machine could be a serious competitor.

From Glasgow in Scotland, Traffic Warden!

Traffic Warden is a newcomer to the competition, but it€™s definitely my pick to win this heat. The clamp is a very powerful weapon, powered by hydraulics. The titanium is also not bad at all, but exposed wheels could definitely be a bit vulnerable.

From England, ORAC!

ORAC is a very old robot from Robot Wars, with big wheels and armour that could be spinner fodder. It DOES have a spinning disc and chisels but I doubt it will get very far into competition, and since there is ONE powerful spinner in this battle€¦

Roboteers, Stand by€¦

There€™s Steve and Matt in their booth at the controls of Traffic Warden and Delirium Tremors respectively, and Joey at the controls of ORAC. The house robots will be Dead Metal with the pincers and circular saw of doom, and also the big daddy of them all, King Arthur with the flywheel and clamping jaws.

3€¦ 2€¦ 1€¦ ACTIVATE!!!

So, Traffic Warden immediately darts for ORAC, and Delirium Tremors spins up to full speed. ORAC tries to get away, but Traffic Warden has a grip on it! Traffic Warden now carries it to Dead Metal€™s CPZ, and ORAC is welcomed with open arms! Now, ORAC gets away, meanwhile Delirium Tremors is watching ORAC carefully. ORAC tries to attack Traffic Warden, and it nicks the side of Traffic Warden with the disc, but no damage is caused. Traffic Warden darts for ORAC and grabs it, now it goes towards the saws! BZZT! The saws cause sparks to fly, and we now see on the close-up camera that one of the wheels have been sliced! Traffic Warden does not let go of ORAC, instead, it darts for Delirium Tremors and pushes it into the spinning drum! At the same time, here comes Delirium Tremors in for the kill!
CRASH!!!
Oh, what a hit! ORAC just gets levelled by the spinning drum of Delirium Tremors! A wheel just gets ripped off directly and carnage has taken over the warzone! Now, Traffic Warden grabs hold of ORAC, and slams it into the CPZ of Dead Metal, and it tries to get away but Dead Metal welcomes ORAC with open arms! Great pushing power there by Traffic Warden, and the dreaded saw of Dead Metal comes down on ORAC causing sparks to fly! ORAC is in all sorts of trouble, and it finally JUST gets away from Dead Metal! Traffic Warden comes in again, and slams into ORAC! Now, it slams ORAC into the capable flywheel of King Arthur!
CRASH!!!
Crushed. That is all I can say. ORAC suffers huge damage and the other wheel comes off, and Delirium Tremors comes in on ORAC, drum spun up to full speed!
CRASH!!!
ORAC is JUST tossed across the arena! Matt seems to be having too much fun, it looks like. ORAC suffers some big damage from that hit; a huge amount of armour comes off, exposing the inner parts. Delirium Tremors spins up again, and Traffic Warden comes in on ORAC! The clamp grabs hold of ORAC, and pushes it into Delirium Tremors€™ drum€¦
CRASH!!!
OH MY GAWD! Delirium Tremors€™ drum wreaks havoc in the warzone, as it tears away on ORAC! Out comes a battery and ORAC is absolutely undressed by Delirium Tremors! Refbot has seen enough and comes over to ORAC to count it out.
1€¦ 2€¦ 3€¦ 4€¦ 5€¦ 6€¦ 7€¦ 8€¦ 9€¦ 10!!!
The Robot Wars veteran is eliminated from the competition! The house robots close in on ORAC, and King Arthur comes in with the lethal flywheel! Oh no, this doesn€™t look good at all€¦
CRASH!!!
Now THAT is seriously asking for too much carnage. I€™ve never seen THIS much damage done before€¦ look at that. It€™s absolutely too graphic to watch for me right now, and to be honest with you, I€™m not REALLY sure if ORAC can be put together anymore€¦ oh dear. The pit release is activated, and finally ORAC (well, what€™s left of it) is interred in the pit.

CEASE!

ORAC looks more like crushed OREOs.
Delirium Tremors and Traffic Warden go through to the 2nd Round!

Round 2 LINE UPS

Re: ROBOBASH SERIES 2!!!!

Woo destruction nice fights Samuel!

I'm going to predict that Delirium Tremors will rip Obsidian to shreds and that Traffic Warden will pit Turbulence after being dominated and flipped around for the first half of the match.

[death robotics]

Re: ROBOBASH SERIES 2!!!!

Good match Sam

There is one problem though, me and Jack were teaming up on Obsidian. But meh Mortis fails, keep em coming

[andrewj]

Re: ROBOBASH SERIES 2!!!!

Good stuff, Sam, keep going.

I'll predict Delirium Tremors and Traffic Warden to go through.

[Zarte]

Re: ROBOBASH SERIES 2!!!!

Keep to the sides of Obsidian and just keep rolling it and breaking bits off. I wanna see a KO not a JD so no pitting, just mangling

Traffic Warden for the other one

[kodster]

Re: ROBOBASH SERIES 2!!!!

Delirium Tremors and Turbulence for me.

Good job Samuel.

[kodster]

Re: ROBOBASH SERIES 2!!!!

Bump...still interested in this, Mr. Park!

[samuel3764]

Re: ROBOBASH SERIES 2!!!!

Hello all. I am back after an EXTREMELY LONG... sabbatical :P

Just letting you know that I WILL, in fact, be continuing this tourney, and new battles will be uploaded very soon.

Cheers

[kodster]

Re: ROBOBASH SERIES 2!!!!

Might we ask what this break was?

Regardless, good to have you back. Let's see some life injected into the fanfic area again.

[samuel3764]

Re: ROBOBASH SERIES 2!!!!

Sorry about the HUGE lack of battles, I graduated from high school and now my work has doubled up even more now that I have applied for post-high school education. I also had to do some large amount of work (not to mention, I had a huge exam a few weeks ago), so it stalled my time and I clearly had no time to write.

Anyway, let's get it on!

( * * * )

Sam: The night is still young for more carnage and destruction! LET ROUND 2 BEGIN!!!

(BATTLE 3!!!)

Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome...

DELIRIUM TREMORS!!!

OBSIDIAN!!!

Roboteers, Stand By...

Delirium Tremors, looking deadly as ever, is driven by Matt Fowler, looking on from a control booth, and Leo van Miert in another booth, is driving Obsidian. Your house robots will make some noise as always. They are Matilda with the forklift tusks and flywheel, and Napoleon Botaparte with the huge pushing power and the low wedge scoop.

3... 2... 1... ACTIVATE!!!

Bang a gong, we are on! Delirium Tremors is immediately spinning up its weapon and moving along. That drum, as always, is absolutely lethal and it's already spun up to full speed. Delirium Tremors is going at Obsidian and the drum comes into play as it comes in on the axebot!
CRASH!!!!
The drum goes rat-a-tat-tat on Obsidian and flips it over, and a small gash is found in its armour. Now Obsidian drives into Delirium Tremors's side and the axe comes down, but it doesn't really cause much damage. Delirium Tremors spins up again, but Obsidian pushes the drumbot into the saws! BZZZT! Delirium Tremors is okay though, as it is still running fairly smooth. The drum is churning away, and it slams into Obsidian's side! Obsidian is desperately trying to get itself away from the drum...
CRASH!!!!
...nope. The drum catches the side and it leaves a small gash, and it flips Obsidian over. Obsidian tries to self-right and Delirium Tremors tries to get Obsidian with the drum! But no, It self-rights and gets away, just in time. Now, Obsidian comes in on the side of Delirium Tremors again, and gets the axe down! But once again, it does not cause much damage to the drumbot. Delirium Tremors gets its drum into play, and comes in on the side of Obsidian!
CRASH!!!!
Ouch. That's gonna leave a mark... it did actually. A huge dent can be seen in the side of Obsidian. The machine from Hoogvilet now pushes Matt's robot into the saws, and sparks are flying! No REAL damage has been caused to Delirium Tremors, though. Now, Delirium Tremors spins up to speed, and slams into Obsidian with the drum again!
CRASH!!!!
The power of the impact is devastating, as Obsidian gets thrown into Matilda's CPZ. Here's Matilda with the flywheel spun up to full speed! Oh no, this does not look good. Leo desperately tries to self-right his machine...
CRASH!!!
Too little, too late, I'm afraid. Oh boy, some more armour flies off of Obsidian, and... OUCH. It doesn't look good for the Dutch machine, as it is limping across the arena. Oh my goodness. Deluirium Tremors spins up... oh no, this can't be good for Obsidian. The robot from Bedford charges into Leo's machine, drum spun up to full speed...
CRASH!!!!
OH MY GAWD, that is a heck of a hit, as both robots collide with a sickening crash. Obsidian goes flying across the arena and that's got to hurt indeed. At this point, I got to say, even my stomach is knotting up a little. Now, Obsidian is-- hang on just a minute, has Obsidian STOPPED MOVING?! It certainly looks like it's stopped. It's not going anywhere at all. Leo is twiddling the controls frantically, but there's no movement in Obsidian whatsoever. The collision must have dislodged something inside. Now, Delirium Tremors backs away, and the drum slowly coasts to a stop. The Refbot hurries over and counts Obsidian out.
1... 2... 3... 4... 5... 6... 7... 8... 9... 10!!!
Kudos to Leo for bringing in a brilliant machine. Leo claps for Matt, as the house robots come out to toy with Obsidian, and Napoleon slams the pit button... uh, a nudge is enough. No need to slam it. Napoleon gets under Obsidian, and pushes it onto the arena flipper... we will witness Obsidian's first flight in t-minus 3... 2... 1... FLIP! We have liftoff, as Obsidian soars and tumbles down on its back, and it gets slammed by Matilda with the flywheel. Now, Napoleon pushes Obsidian onto... THE DROP ZONE?! Oh no, not this again... well, too late now, as a printer is about to come tumbling down on Obsidian. Leo and Matt count along with the audience!
10... 9... 8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2... 1... CRASH!!!
Down goes the printer, and finally, Napoleon lines Obsidian up near the pit, and Matilda comes in with the flywheel and Obsidian is tossed in. Delirium Tremors spinning up all of a sudden...
CRASH!!!
OH!!! Delirium Tremors absolutely levels the printer, and the printer is absolutely shredded!

CEASE!

Obsidian gets absolutely rocked and rolled like nobody's business.
Delirium Tremors goes through to the Heat J Final!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(BATTLE 4!!!)

Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome...

TRAFFIC WARDEN!!!

TURBULENCE!!!

Roboteers, Stand By...

Right, so there is Jack with Turbulence in one control booth, and Steve on the controls of his robot in the other booth. House robots for this fight are Shunt with the powerful axe, and also Head Smash with the explosive hammer. You wouldn't want to get near any one of these robots.

3... 2.... 1... ACTIVATE!!!

Here we go again, with Traffic Warden immediately gunning for Turbulence's side, and Turbulence is also trying to do the same thing, it looks like. Turbulence, slightly the more faster here, slams into the side of Traffic Warden and flips it over! Good attack by Turbulence, using its speed and its weapon well. Now, Traffic Warden slams into the rear of Turbulence and clamps it! Turbulence is in trouble here, as it gets slammed into the arena saws! BZZZT! The sparks fly as the saws grind away on the base armour of Turbulence. Now, Turbulence is getting away, and it slams into Traffic Warden's side, and carries it to the wall! Is this fight over so soon for Traffic Warden?
FLIP!!!
Eh? How'd that not go over? Close but no cigar for Turbulence, as Traffic Warden bounces off the wall and back in it. Turbulence being aggressive here, chasing Traffic Warden around the arena, but wait! Traffic Warden has got a grip again on Turbulence, and this time, it's going to Shunt's CPZ! A great fight between the two robots here. Shunt gets the axe down, but no real damage has been caused to Turbulence. Traffic Warden lets go of Turbulence, and they separate. Turbulence has got a bead on Traffic Warden here, and slams into the side! Now, Traffic Warden gets fed into the CPZ of Head Smash! Down comes the hammer and Traffic Warden is in major trouble here! Oh my goodness, that hammer came down with a force of a jackhammer, and it's made a hole in the armour. One word, OUCH! Traffic Warden gets away, and gets a grip on Turbulence once more! Now, Traffic Warden slams Turbulence into Head Smash's CPZ! Head Smash showing no mercy towards Turbulence, either. Down will come the hammer, and OH, Turbulence gets it good on the top armour, and has a huge dent on it now... oh boy. Now, Turbulence gets away from Head Smash, and chases after Traffic Warden, and feeds it to the saws! BZZZT! Ah, sparks fly. How lovely. Turbulence will definitely score points on that performance. Now, in comes the machine from Scotland, and it slams into Turbulence and fights back by slamming it into the pit button! Now, Turbulence is being nudged towards the pit... but somehow, it gets away miraculously! To be honest, I don't REALLY know how it managed to escape. Turbulence gets away now. It slams into Traffic Warden and feeds it to Head Smash! The hammer of doom comes down on Traffic Warden, and it just makes a frightening sound! Holy cannolli, even I was frightened by the noise. Traffic Warden is just slammed by the hammer, and now, Traffic Warden comes out of the CPZ after getting absolutely levelled by that hammer. Oh my goodness. Great fight we're seeing here though, nice and even between the two machines. Wait a minute though, Traffic Warden has a grip on Turbulence, and it's trying to put it into the saws! BZZZT! The sparks litter the arena floor, and now, Traffic Warden heads for the pit and it's taking Turbulence with it! Turbulence is in peril, as it is about to go down. Is this it for the 14th seed?! NO! The tables have turned again as Turbulence makes another miraculous escape, and the 14th seed is still alive. BUT WAIT! Turbulence may have gotten away from the pit, but not from the Warden! Traffic Warden slams into Turbulence again though, and slams it into the saws! BZZZT! Great showers of sparks scatter across the arena, and Turbuelnce gets away from the saws. Turbulence fights back, as it gets under the side of the Warden and flips the Scottish clampbot into Shunt's CPZ now! Shunt is going to let the Warden know that he does not belong there! The axe comes straight down on Traffic Warden! Ouch, that's going to leave a mark, and a big one. The armour gets dented badly, and Traffic Warden gets away from Shunt, but not from Turbulence! Now, Turbulence gets under Traffic Warden again, and shoves it into Head Smash's CPZ! Head Smash is about to bring the hammer down, and Traffic Warden tries getting away...
WHAM!!!
Too little too late, I'm afraid. The hammer comes blasting down on Traffic Warden... and Traffic Warden gets levelled again by the hammer of doom. Now, uh-oh... Traffic Warden is having all sorts of problems, and it's not moving at all! I think that attack damaged the inside of the machine more than the outside. Oh dear, Steve seems to know what has happened, and smoke is starting to pour out of Traffic Warden! The Refbot rushes over and starts to count out the Warden!
1... 2... 3... 4... 5... 6... 7... 8... 9... 10!!!
That is the end for Traffic Warden. Kudos to Steve for bring in such a sophisticatedly-designed machine. Turbulence gets underneath the beaten clampbot and drives towards the wall... it is GONE! It's out of there! But it seems to me that Turbulence wants much more action, as it takes on Shunt in the CPZ! Shunt gets toppled over, and now, Steve is yelling for Shunt to get down the pit! Jack drives Turbulence into Shunt, and into the pit it goes! Refbot on the other hand, is not amused with at all with this scene. But it's getting ugly for the Refbot as Turbulence gets underneath, and just as the Refbot is about to give a yellow card to Turbulence-- HAHAHAHAHAHA! The Refbot gets flipped on its side! They're both going nuts up in their control booths! Ah man, now I've seen everything.

CEASE!

Traffic Warden suffers a lot of turbulence and gets downgraded to a pedestrian.
The 14th seed, Turbulence goes through to the Heat J Final!

So, Traffic Warden and Obsidian are history, and so that leaves us with two robots in our Heat Final...

Heat J Final
