The Legends Tournament

Hurricane Hugo vs. Juggerbee Pi
Hi chris, bye chris.
Spin immmeditly form the start, so both the body and spinner are both going. I can only move while spinning, and doing so will increase the damage of my hits a bit, so theres no reason I shouldnt be. If chris wants to get me, hell have to RAM me first, and he has poor armor, so thatll be mostly points for me. NEVER let him get me near the pit. Just eventually let him be KOd.

My disc should be able to do a lot of damage, lets just hope my hits are good ones/

SCENE 1
Catalyst VS POLITICAL CORRECTNESS RUN AMOK!

He has the better traction and speed, but his thwackiness wont do anything to my superior armour, plus I should logically have the superior control. Key plan here therefore is to stick to the sides and ram it into anything painful. That 2-rated armour should cut up a treat

Steve you do know for a thwackbot that speed is the power of the weapon and that it hasnt got a side to go to because its spinning all together

Political Correctness Run Amok vs. Catalyst

Let me tell you the story of when the Full Body Thwack met the Boxy Box. BANG SMASH BOOM, yes thats right! BANG SMASH BOOM! and since he is just a box Ill use the regular sharp spinning things, spin clockwise for maximum damage

Act 4, Scene 1, Part 1

I stopped to fill my Car Up, my egg-shaped stone was stolen, I€™m not in the best of moods, and I want my egg-shaped stone back.

Fight 1
Hurricane Hugo vs. Juggerbee Pi

From America, Hurricane Hugo. Designed to be a spinner on the spot, with evil blades and an outside spinning bar, spinning counter clockwise to the body, how evil. However if it hits something with armour 6 or more, it could be curtains for this spinner. It€™s pretty fast at speed 6.

From England, Juggerbee Pi. Designed to be a rammer spinner with a rear spike, it has the power to do well, but the weaponry isn€™t the best in the world at power 2. It has decent speed at 4, but is this enough for Mr Rammer?

ACTIVE

Hurricane Hugo is spinning around, spinning up a storm on the starting square, as Juggerbee Pi starts to make it€™s way around the starting section. Hurricane Hugo starts to roll forward, getting up to speed in linear movements, making a little storm with the dust on the arena surface, as Juggerbee Pi is trying to run away, as Hurricane Hugo hits into the slower machine€™s rear end.

Juggerbee Pi is spun around, the rear spike ripped off, as the sides hit the ring spinner. Juggerbee Pi is spun away once more, the side skirt and armour hanging loose, as Hurricane Hugo comes back onto the attack, hitting into the side once more, and completely spiting the side armour away to show the insides. Hurricane Hugo is onto the attack once more and rips out the side wheels, as they land on the arena surface.

Cease

The judges call a cease, as Juggerbee Pi is taken apart by the hurricane of Hurricane Hugo.

Fight 2
Panic Cubed vs. The New Guy

From Scotland, Panic Cubed is my name for Panic Panic Panic. Entered by Mr Martyn, this version of Panic is like Panicking, but with Hardox armour ranked at 5, skirts ranked at 3, so it looks an all-round average machine to take on the war machines of England, and America.

From Somewhere, the New Guy. Entered by Danny B, this newcomer has forgotten traction, but in terms of fairness I have moved 1 point from speed to traction. The speed and armour is tough at 6 and 7 respectfully, but the weapon is useless at power 2.

The New Guy gets off to a flying start, as he turns the corner and drives straight into Panic Cubed€™s lifting forks, and jumps away, as Martyn drives forward, getting underneath the side of The New Guy and lifting the wheels off the ground with the forks, lifts The New Guy up into the sky with Lucy and the diamonds. Panic Cubed is driving towards the pit release.

The pit is opened, as The New Guy€™s wheels are spinning in mid-air, and the disc spinning around, hitting random particles of air. The pit is getting closer to The New Guy, as Martyn lifts up a bit further and drops The New Guy 7 and a half feet under.

Cease

The New Guy, attacked at the start, but was lifted and pitted by Panic Panic Panic, which moves into the semi finals

It isn€™t dead, and by my standards of forever delayed, I€™m happy with the delay on act 4, scene 1b.

Act 4, Scene 1, Part 2

Fight 3
The Box vs. Dante

In the red square, The Box from Team Whatever Andy€™s team is called these days.
In the blue square, Dante from Team Evil Genesis

Active

The fight beings, for the usual fee plus expenses, as The Box Returns for the last time accelerates from rest to it€™s top speed, going around the corner, and Dante is waiting for Andy, with the disc up to speed, as The Box rams straight into Dante€™s disc, which throws The Box away, with a large dent in the front panel, as it lands on it€™s back, Andy comes back onto the attack, and rams into Dante once more, which hasn€™t moved, and the second impact, sends The Box once more into a spin, as the sliding door, slides open. This is Music.

Confidential Information, kept in a diary, this is my tournament, not a public enquiry. Dante starts to move forward, but The Box is faster than it, and gets away from the disc and tries to dodge around the rear end, but it hits into the wheels and pushes Dante sideways, but nothing happens with the weapon, as Alex slams on the brake and The Box rams itself into the blade of death. Hmm, damage, nice. The Box is on it€™s back once more, the front end bent, ripped and damaged. Dante spins it€™s spinner up to speed once more, as The Box opens the pit release, as Dante is waiting in the wings. The Box slams into Dante once more, but Alex was ready and brakes once more, Andy has learnt and pushes Dante around the other way, so that it€™s behind the disc. Andy is heard to be saying something like €˜excellent€™ as he puts on full power on Dante, which is caught between a rock and a hard place, as The Box slams Dante into the wall at full power. Dante jumps up, but it is undamaged by the attack, as The Box rams underneath it and pushes into the wall once more.

Dante is being attacked once more, as Andy is not allowing Alex time to spin it€™s disc up to speed, as The Box rams Dante towards the pit, Alex breaks once more, but the flat front of The Box doesn€™t allow it to climb up, as Dante is dropped down the pit, 5 feet under and out. The smoke is rising from the pit, as The Box turns, after completing a shock.

Fight 4
Political Correctness Run Amok! Vs. Catalyst

In the red square, Political Correctness Run Amok, from Team Braveheart
In the blue square, Catalyst from Team Viper

The 4th place in scene 2 is up for grabs, as Steve and Andy are waiting.

Active

Catalyst starts to spin, sending up a dust storm, as Political Correctness Run Amok starts to move forward, armoured so well, as Catalyst starts to go forward, spinning forward still at speed 7, and moving at 2, as Political Correctness Run Amok slams straight into it. Both robots are sent away from each other, as Political Correctness Run Amok is looking damaged, and look at that slice in the front right hand corner from the blade, as Catalyst is still spinning on the spot, looking for some action, as Political Correctness Run Amok has opened the pit release. Steve is wondering what to do, as Catalyst starts to move towards his robot, as the sliding door opens, and both robots are in the arena to play. No Hope is waiting for some fun, with it€™s claw going forward, as Political Correctness Run Amok runs into Catalyst once more, trying to get underneath it, but it€™s impossible, and Political Correctness Run Amok is spun away, Catalyst comes back onto the attack and slams into the side of Political Correctness Run Amok, ripping away the skirts, and another attack onto Political Correctness Run Amok, damages the front wedge, by destroying a part of the holding bracket. Ouch. Political Correctness Run Amok runs for it, as Catalyst waits back for a while, playing with the skirt, ripping it to shreds. Political Correctness Run Amok is hanging around the arena spike, it€™s side on, looking for some spiky action.

Steve has changed into Professor Vengeance and turns Political Correctness Run Amok around and drives it straight into Catalyst at full power sending both robots spinning away, as Political Correctness Run Amok departs from it€™s wedge, as Catalyst ends up near the hammer, but some cleaver driving from Viper sees Catalyst away from damage, as Political Correctness Run Amok comes thundering into play, as it pushes Catalyst into the hammer, which comes down, and is ripped off by the force as it hits an empty gap. Political Correctness Run Amok rams Catalyst into the wall, as Viper stops the spinning, as Political Correctness Run Amok has pushed Catalyst into the wall, but what is Professor Vengeance going to do now, the doomsday device is out of Political Correctness Run Amok, as it fires, leaving a burning black mess on the arena, the fire it strong, as Political Correctness Run Amok reverses, allowing Catalyst time to run for it. The doomsday device has burned itself out, as Political Correctness Run Amok rams into Catalyst once more, but it is sent away, into the air, as Catalyst is waiting and bang, the right hand side is hit dead one, and a large dent is formed in the armour, as it is pushed inwards. Political Correctness Run Amok turns around in a circle, as it keeps control, but another slam from Catalyst puts another dent in the side panel, look at the wheels, that second dent is stopping the front wheels from turning, and the 1st dent is preventing full movement of the rear two wheels. Political Correctness Run Amok turns around, but Catalyst slams into it once more, and sends Political Correctness Run Amok spinning away, damaged, as the time is ticking down to the end of the self-destruction.

Cease

The judges are needed to decide the fight:
Damage - Political Correctness Run Amok (0/15), Catalyst (15/15)
Aggression - Political Correctness Run Amok (7/15), Catalyst (8/15)
Strategy - Political Correctness Run Amok (9/15), Catalyst (6/15)

Catalyst wins over Political Correctness Run Amok in a 29-16 decision and moves into scene 2.
