ROUND 1

KILLOTINE: EVO - stay with DMs sides and hammer the semi-exposed innards until fatal death. Then, get under Spawn Again from the sides to grapple n Pit with better traction.

CHAOS 2 - oh dear. Either flip Cyberdemon straight away and attempt to OOTA or gang up on Sir K with him. Whichevers least painful.

MR PSYCHO - too hefty to push that much. Hammer each a few times for fun and either get a grip on them to drop them out the ring or just shove them into the Pit

Okay with stats, I have a better idea of how to deal with DCR.

Pretend to team up with DCR while going for Sgt. Bash with him, but then fall behind. Whilst behind him, grip his wheels and ensure no traction. If this arena has a pit, then pit him. If not, then push him into the Sgt.s claw. Try to get his wheels dead. Once DCR is taken care of, then go for the good ol Sgt. I should grip on the sides and really kill him.

To redo my tactics for Dead Metal. Do the same thing, except with Spawn Again. SA has flat sides and should make a good target. Plus I can shove him into Killotine who can axe him to death.

Cyberdemon: Team up with Steve, stay spun up, and even though my control sucks, Killalots speed isnt excactly first-rate, so it kind of evens out. So try to keep ramming into the armored bathtubs back at full speed, and if that dosent work, get Steve to distract him while Im free to take out the tracks. Once hes out of the picture, stick and move and try to take out the side panel and a wheel. A few more full speed rams should finish him off.
Spawn Again: Err, not much I can do here, Unless Steves willing to team up. Get under and TRY to flip it over. If that dosent work, try pushing it from the side. if THAT dosent work, Im screwed. But I can still act as bait to distract Dead Metal and let Steve hammer away if he gets a clear shot to the side. Once hes out of the picture, try to sneak behind, push into the wall, and flip him clean OOTA.
Sgt Bash: Grip TAN right from the get-go, torch it all the way, and try to pit it ASAP. Might not work, but meh, gotta try. Dont let go either unless im force to: If Dieceratops tries to flip me OOTA and suceeds, TAN has a shot at going down with me. If I dont go down with TAN but TAN goes down, then repeat with Dieceratops.

Okay, its time for Battle # 1
COSMIC THUNDER 2 vs. BULLDOG BREED vs. MR. PSYCHO

Cosmic Thunder 2 is a vapourbot entered by Alex, it has a low flipper, and if that fails, it can run either way up. It is very low to the ground, but the armour is weak.

Bulldog Breed is a real robot entered by Chris Mason, it has a low flipper, and runs very fast. It is also very manouverable, but isnt the strongest of pushers however.

Mr. Psycho is a house robot entered by Steve McG, it has a claw and a hammer, and runs on tracks. It is very heavy, but is not very fast compared to the other robots.

Roboteers Stand By!

Booth 1: Alex M & W and Chris Mason
Booth 2: Steven McGregor

3, 2, 1, ACTIVATE!
Cosmic Thunder 2 goes for the hefty house robot, and Bulldog Breed awaits an attack, Mr. Psycho attacks Cosmic Thunder 2 with the weak hammer, and slowly backs up, and avoids a flip. Bulldog Breed then goes and flips Cosmic Thunder 2, Cosmic Thunder 2s flipper took damage from the hammer of Mr. Psycho, and similar to Chaos 2 vs. SMIDSY in Series 5 of Robot Wars, where Chaos 2 couldnt get up after SMIDSY attacked the flipper with the disc before Chaos 2 flipped itself over, Cosmic Thunder 2 is suffering through the similar problem, however, thankfully for Cosmic Thunder 2 it runs both ways up. Bulldog Breed decides to go for Mr.Psycho, while Cosmic Thunder 2 hits the pit release button, the square hole opens up in the middle of the floor, Mr. Psycho attacks Bulldog Breed with the flipper, then slowly tries to catch up to Cosmic Thunder 2, however, since the arena is only so wide, Mr. Psycho catches it, and grabs it with the claw, it then lifts up Cosmic Thunder 2, and drops it out of the arena!
The Cosmic Adventures are over for Cosmic Thunder 2!
Bulldog Breed then charges into the slow to back up Mr. Psycho, and then it gets straight underneath the heavy house robot, and then with a big OOMPH, it gets under Mr. Psycho, and flips it straight over, and crashes it onto the side wall. All thats left to do is for Refbot to come and count out Psycho. 1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9...10!!!
CEASE!

Mr. Psycho has gone plain psycho!
BULLDOG BREED ADVANCES TO ROUND 2!!!

Congrats to Chris Mason!

Wedga Revo: Push and flip
Storm II: Ram things
Shunt: Turn them into a pepperpot

...yep, I cant be bothered with tactics at the moment. :P

Yep, that makes sence. Probably the weakest hammer known to robot wars is able to take out my flipper. And I wait for the house robot to go off my flipper before I flip, loads of sence there. Alot of sence also in the fact that Bulldog Breed, as far as I know, does not have the power the flip Psycho.

OK, now I remember why I stopped writing fights.

That, plus I really dont feel like doing any writing with only about a week left in summer, Id rather get out and relax, and enjoy my last few days of summer. So Im sorry to say this tourney is cancelled.

Im also hereby calling my official retirement from writing, it has gotten too hard to do now with very little time, Ill let Steven, Rich, etc. work on the writing.

Dont worry Matt, I know how you feel. I really want to write my tournies, but most of the time I cant find any inspiration, or I simply cant be bothered.
