The Annihilators

Yep its time for a mini tourney, its pretty basic I need 3 robots from 6 people that will go into mayhems to qualify for a place in one of the annihilators if you go out of the mayhem first then you will go into the 18th-13th place annihilator if you go out second then its 12th-7th and if you win the mayhem 6th-1st.

Rules are
Each person enters 3 robots, one of which must be a real robot, one of which must be a vapour the other one is up to you it can be real or vapour.
The weight limits are as follows
100kg for a roller (tracked or wheeled)
125kg for robots that use screws
150kg for shuffle bots
200kg for €˜true€™ walkers (eg anarchy)

Flying robots are not permitted
Robots are allowed to be purely static
Clusterbots are permitted 100% has to be out for the cluster to go out, there is a maximum of 3 parts allowed

Try and include the basic minimum in the stats

For the rest basic robot wars rules apply

So get entering

SO NOT FUNNY what i mean is that your aloud purely static weapons such as the extreme 2 version of storm 2.

Each person enters 3 robots, one of which must be a real robot

I know, I know :P

Sorry Martyn, didnt see that.
In that case, replace Vampire Killer with Spawn Again.

Hmm...

...pie

Give me Storm 2.
My vapourbot will be Disco 5 (Nowhere in the rules said it had to be your vapourbot )
and Seggy

Hopefully, that should suffice

The Annihilators

aka IDIOT, Automatic Schmuck, Typhoon 2.

Team Name: Team SpunOut
City/Town/Suburb Representing: the Eastern End of Morphett Crescent, Perth, Australia XD
Robot Name: a.k.a. I-D-I-O-T
Length/Width/Height: 800mm diameter, 265mm height at center 400mm, sloping down to 100mm at outer circumference.
Weight: maximum 100KG. Should realistically be a few under.
Motivation: 4 120mm diameter titanium custom-made omniwheels, 2mm rubber tyres on each omniwheel tread.
Speed: 3.34KM/H (2.0875MPH)
Weapon: Shell-spinner, powered by a single PERM motor at roughly 2:1 on a separate 36V supply. The shell weighs 28.2KG and has 4 1KG tool-steel €˜claws€™ on it at a height of 5cm from the bottom of the shell to still catch all the low bots without threatening the arena. It spins at a controlled 1700RPM.
Drive: 4 AstroFlight C90s on 24V, each geared down 30:1 to give 300RPM output.
Power: 4 24V 3Ah Battlepacks, 6 12V 3Ah Battlepacks giving 24V 12Ah for the drive and 36V 6Ah for the weapon.
Armour: It has a drilled titanium/vanadium 12cm x 2cm bar chassis in the cone shape, and the shell itself is made of 6mm Hardox with various reinforcements of 10mm Titanium/Vanadium.
Ground Clearance: 1cm
Turning Circle: 0. Obviously.
Notes: Rights itself via a pole in the middle of the flat top, which pokes out in four directions to right it on any side. Can travel in any direction at any time, and can outpush a lot of bots. Speed is no worry due to the shell-spinner firstly, and the huge torque secondly. I can comfortably push others when I run out of weapon power, and I have the batteries to very, very comfortably go the distance.

Name: Automatic Schmuck
Motivation: Wheeled (x 4, 120mm diameter main, 30mm €˜castor€™ front wheels)
Speed: 24.16KM/H (15.10 MPH)
Weight: 98.42kg
Height: 130mm at peak; variable from 28mm upwards.
Length: 870mm
Width: 743mm
Ground Clearance: 0 at sides w/ skirting, 0 at rear with €˜hinged€™ wedge, 0 at front with wedge; 12mm at the point nearest the back wheels otherwise, down to 5mm at the front wheels.
Weapon: 17.14kg kinetic-energy bar. 13.10kg, 111.2cm long bar, 2 2.02kg hardox weights (one at each end). It€™s powered by a C40-300 on a separate power supply at 24V, which when geared down 2.4:1 gives me a safe 1700RPM (spin-up = less than 0.5 seconds), and a heck of a lot of KE to transfer at the tips. The weapon system is held securely in place on steel box-section supports parallel to the wedged top of the robot, minimizing shock output to the rest of the robot.
Drive: 4 S28-300 3€ MagMotors, 2 on each rear wheel, on 24V. This gives me easily 10HP and a lot fo torque despite the healthy speed.
Batteries: 2 x 24V 3Ah Battlepacks (drive), 2 x 12V 3Ah Battlepacks (weapon). They are all shock-mounted, and slot together due to the unique curving on the outside of Battlepacks, allowing secure holding.
Chassis/Armour:
Chassis: 30 x 30 x 4mm Ti/V box section.
Armour: 13mm Ti/V all round. The skirting is 9mm Hardox plating, as they are all very small, and the two wedges are made from 6mm Hardox plating.
Electronics: Runs a RoboWars.org BMC speed controller with Hitec Focus SS-3 75mhz PCM 3ch Radio and a 3-axis computer Gyro for maxium control and handling. Uses 150amp rated Anderson power pole connectors and locking pins. Electronics are shock mounted and mounting in a floating style encased in HD (High Density) foam.
Notes: Spinning upside down, paired with the wedged style of the bot, allows a very quick & easy form of self-righting. Designed to knock the shit through some more superbots, for old times€™ sake.

I will enter X Terminator (S7), MORD2 and Tenderizers Revenge 2.

M.O.R.D2
Weight: 110kg
Shape: Box, with sides that slant outwards from the top and bottom edges to form triangles, like Tornados rear (hopefully this will lower the effectiveness of spinners)
Dimensions: 90 x 32 x 35
Speed: 20mph
Ground Clearance: 0 at front due to plow, 0 at sides and rear due to skirts, which are fixed to the points of the triangles and can work either way up
Armour: Body is 6mm titanium; scoop is 4mm titanium; skirts are 3mm titanium
Movement: Camshafts like Drillzilla
Power: 36V battery and motors
Weapons: At the front is an electrically powered scoop which operates through 180 degrees, so it can work when the robot is inverted. Behind the scoop is a 20kg spinning drum with 8 titanium teeth on it, spinning at 2000rpm and hopefully able to flip robots as well as damage them. The drum comes into play if the scoop is lifted.
Srimech: Invertable; triangles at sides and rear prevent it resting there
Tactics: Shove opponents with the scoop; then lift the scoop and attack with the drum
Strengths: Fast; good traction; powerful drum
Weaknesses: Less manouverable than wheeled robots

TENDERIZERS REVENGE 2
Weight: 97kg
Shape: Low invertable box with low wedge at the front and inverted wedge at the back - painted blue with its name painted to look like blood on the skirts
Dimensions: 90 x 90 x 20
Speed: 15mph
Ground Clearance: 0 all around due to low wedge and skirts, 2mm behind side skirts, 20cm behind skirt on inverted wedge. Both wedges have skirts attached to them at their edge. The wedge and side skirts are attached to rotatable cylinders inside the robot (or wedge) so they can be moved up and down. When they are down, they are very low and its hard to get underneath, but the robots speed is reduced to 9mph. The side skirts can go up to a point where they work inverted. The skirts on the wedges move within 90 degrees - when their wedge is inverted, they are in a vertical position to repel flippers, and when their wedge is right way up, they are in a horizontal position, riding along the ground to help get under robots. When the robot is moving around normally, all skirts except the front wedge one are pulled down low but not to maximum lowness so it can move quickly - the skirts go to maximum lowness if a flipper comes anywhere near it.
Armour: Main body has 5mm polycarbonate on top of 5mm titanium, skirts are 4mm titanium, wedges are 5mm hardox
Wheels: 4, inside robot
Power: 36V battery and motors
Weapon: An electrically powered lifting arm, which runs along half of the top of the robot - its tip is pointed to help hold onto robots, and is at the point where the wedge meets the body, and it does not go down the wedge. It can rotate through 360 degrees so it can be used when the robot is inverted.
Srimech: Invertable - arm will act as srimech, but this will hardly happen as the robot works identically both ways up. Moveable skirts prevent it from resting on its sides.
Tactics: Run into opponents, try to get under them, then get them onto its top and onto the arm. The arm turns them over, or catches them so I can carry them around.
Strengths: Decent pushing power; moveable skirts; difficult to attack by flippers
Weaknesses: May struggle to use arm against some opponents

ill enter sorrow, beta and blizzard

because i get a weight bonus my spinning claw weapons will be repalced by 12kg each vertical hydraulic jaws of life for extra annoyingness.
