May the metal gods have mercy on my soul... ![]() 1. ENTRY REQUIREMENTS
2. TOURNAMENT STRUCTURE The tournament will be standard knockout elimination, partially inspired by the first season of Robot Wars: Extreme Warriors:
I'm toying with the idea of a side-contest or two for extra laughs (House Robot Rebellion etc), but I might save them until after the main championship. 3. THE ARENA The setting for this tournament will be the standard Robot Wars arena from Series 7. You know; Pit, CPZs, Drop Zone, all that jazz. 2 x House Robots will be selected at random to act as extra hazards each fight. They will be noted in the battle line-ups, so that competitors can adjust their tactics accordingly, and will be chosen from the full House roster; Shunt, Matilda, Dead Metal, Sgt Bash, Sir Killalot, Mr Psycho, Growler and even Cassius Chrome, bless 'im. Refbot will be around too to keep the peace, aid entangled entrants and count out the dying and dead. 4. JUDGING Should more than one robot still be mobile at the end of a clash, each survivor will be marked out of 5 in the following categories:
The robot with the most overall points out of 20 will be deemed the winner of the battle. In the unlikely event of a draw, I will ask an Outside Judge to make his or her own decision on the fight. Both results will then be averaged to give a final mark. Of course, this is all assuming I can be bothered writing a fight which lasts that long. ![]() ---------- Um, and that's it. A similar sign-up thread has just gone up on the FRA forums, so get your entries in while you can! Good luck, you all.

Redrum and the Heavyweight incarnation of Megabyte should be fine, Mr Mystic, but I thought The Judge was a Superheavyweight. Unless there's a lighter version I'm unaware of, I think you might need to pick another bot. |

Well then! Basically try to be the ultimate opportunist and attack when other bots are weakened/slowed down/you get the idea. Stay in motion so I don't get cornered and stay clear of hazards. |

hmm Go for Mortis first and try to flip them OOTA. I don't think their tanto blade would do much to my armor so they should be fairly harmless. After flipping Mortis around/OOTA, open the pit and try to get Son of Whyachi down it (wait for them to stop spinning first). From there go around and keep flipping the other robots, keep robots away from my sides, but go after SMIDSY last. Once it comes down to me and SMIDSY go for the walls and toss him OOTA. Avoid getting shoved around but be aggressive, keep moving and try to conserve Co2 so I can still toss things OOTA until the very end. If there's more than one robot left at the end try to be the most aggressive so I can win a judge's decision. Good luck everyone! |

I've just realised that I didn't include which House Bots would be in this fight. I shall serve my fifty lashes after the battle. Ah yes. I actually have battles to write, don't I? Very well. Let us begin. ![]() ------------------------------------------------- THE REAL ROBOT RUMBLE ELIMINATOR 1 HEXADECIMATOR Vs MORTIS Vs S.M.I.D.S.Y. Vs SON OF WHYACHI Vs TORNADO Vs WARHEAD FROM REDMOND, IN WASHINGTON, HEXADECIMATOR! GUEST DRIVER: Dylan McCarthy This bulky box-wedge had one of the best flippers in Battlebots, a pneumatic arm capable of subtracting any robot from the arena with ease! The titanium armour has stood up well to spinners in the past - except Son of Whyachi - and the electric motors make it quick as a calculator, but it's not always the most manoeuvrable and if the arm runs out of flips mid-fight, Hexadecimator + inversion = doom. FROM NOTTINGHAM & CAMBRIDGE, MORTIS! GUEST DRIVER: Alex Holt This may be the oldest robot in the Rumble, but when it comes to combat, Mortis is as 'rigorous' as ever. Its kevlar shell is nigh-on impenetrable, its Japanese tanto blade and electric lifting arm make a mean combo and with the caterpillar tracks provided extra traction, it's practically a tank! It's also rather unreliable and nearly 20kg lighter than the rest of the pack. Can Mortis keep a 'stiff' upper lip or will this fight be the death of it? FROM CRAWLEY, IN WEST SUSSEX, S.M.I.D.S.Y! GUEST DRIVER: Kody Kunz Stands for "Sorry Mate I Didn't See You!", but there's really no missing this sleek machine in the first place. S.M.I.D.S.Y. is instantly recognisable with its lifting plate at the front, its spinning disc at the rear and its lovely black and orange body paint all over. It has good armour, good traction and an invertible frame, but the lifter isn't terribly effective when upside-down and a good axe-head on those exposed tyres could mean T.T.F.N. for S.M.I.D.S.Y. O.M.G! FROM DORCHESTER, IN WISCONSIN, SON OF WHYACHI! GUEST DRIVER: playzooki A Heavyweight so good they had to ban it! This carnivorous cage spinner has shuffling pads to get around the arena and used its weight bonus to become one of the most fearsome Battlebots champions ever. The cage is both heavy and fast and the bots itself is nimble for a walker, but it's still a touch cumbersome and if a particularly fearless flipper does get past the hammers, it can't self-right. Will Whyachi spin to win or will the Son set on its hopes of victory? FROM SAWTRY, IN CAMBRIDGESHIRE, TORNADO! GUEST DRIVER: Andrew Jackson Blow me down! The former Robot Wars champ is back to raise a gale with its array of interchangeable weaponry, ranging from drums and bar spinners to wedges and lifters. The real weapon, however, is its tremendous pushing power and high acceleration. Tornado is a fast and furious opponent and completely invertible to boot, but this does leave the wheels open to overhead attacks and its polycarb' armour is no storm shelter either. Can Tornado weather the hurricane or will it be dust in the wind? For this fight, Tornado will be using the classic spinning drum. FROM BOURNEMOUTH, IN DORSET, WARHEAD! GUEST DRIVER: Josh Noel From the brains of Team Razer comes a robot they really hope won't bomb - an elegant, compact machine with an angled spinning dome, two self-righting wings and a fully actuated tail for good measure. It's beautiful, to be sure, and the spinner can produce some truly explosive results (as Nightmare and the Matador will attest), but it does lack pushing power and twitchy controls could see Warhead's plans blow up in its face! HOUSE ROBOTS: Dead Metal & Sir Killalot Roboteers, stand by... 3...2...1... ACTIVATE! And it seems Son of Whyachi is already starting to spin up as Mortis, S.M.I.D.S.Y, Tornado and Hexadecimator all meet for a nice little pile-up in the arena centre. Hexy D makes a beeline for Mortis, but Alex is only happy to oblige him, landing a couple of glancing blows with the electric axe. The two scuttle around each other for a moment, while S.M.I.D.S.Y. and Tornado engage in a little shoving match. Sadly for Kody, Tornado has the upper hand in the pushing department and easily sends S.M.I.D.S.Y. into the nearest wall. Speaking of "I didn't see you", what's happened to Warhead in all of this? CRRRASH! Oh, there we go! Josh has intervened in the Hexy-Mortis duel by smacking Hexadecimator on the side. Dylan quickly recovers from the blow, however, while Warhead spins away and takes a ram from Mortis before it can do likewise. Not wanting to waste his advantage, Alex pushes Warhead down the arena and even manages to lift it up briefly as they hit the Pit Release Button. Fortunately for Warhead, the wings keep it upright and it bounces back onto its wheels, only to take another shunt from the combined forces of Mortis, Hexadecimator... CRRRASH! And Son of Whyachi, it seems! About time you showed up. Yes, Playzooki has officially joined the fray and hit just about all three bots in some way, shape or form, it seems. Mortis and Warhead have held up well, though Hexadecimator is looking a little dented. Neither Hexy D nor Mortis seem deterred, however, as they both dive straight back into Son of Whyachi's hammers... CRRRASH! Mortis takes the brunt this time, though the insanely thick armour is still holding up. The cage now suitably slowed, Hexadecimator tries to wriggle underneath, taking a few more dents for good measure. The flipper does fire, but not hard enough to throw the shuffler over. Son of Whyachi is in more trouble now, though, as Warhead nips in for a nibble and Mortis attempts to push it to the nearest CPZ. Is the former Battlebots champ scuppered? Eh, who cares? Rammer time! After several shunts from Tornado, S.M.I.D.S.Y. manages to wriggle away and the duo's dance begins anew for a short while. S.M.I.D.S.Y. is swift and does manage to catch Tornado by the corners a couple of times, but Andy always manages to nip away before the lifting plate can catch it. Tornado stays on top of S.M.I.D.S.Y's assaults and, with one well-aimed ram to the side, manages to shove it right across the arena to join the others. Son of Whyachi is still being dogpiled as the two invertibots arrive. Mortis is trying to lift the hefty walker, while Hexy D is trying to flip Mortis and Warhead - well, it's just flitting between all three landing blows wherever it can! S.M.I.D.S.Y. puts a stop to this when it gets shoved into the mess and leaves Tornado to tackle Warhead. Kody shoves the winged scorpion do-wotsit back into open space, while Tornado and Mortis help push Son of Whyachi into Dead Metal's open claws. The House Robot happily warps its claws around Whyachi's cage and even gets a quick nick in one of the hammer supports before the shuffler starts shuffling back. FLIP! And it seems Hexy D has already moved on to a new target! An attack from the side leaves Mortis on its back, but the lifting arm self-rights it just as Dylan starts shoving it across the floor. Mortis tries to strike back, but Tornado gets there first, slamming into the side of the fellow RW competitor. Tornado slams Mortis into the wall, before taking a flip from Hexy D itself. Andy is unaffected however and gives Hexadecimator a shove for its troubles too. Speaking of troubles, Warhead is having a hard time keeping up with S.M.I.D.S.Y. Despite Josh's best efforts, he can't quite keep up with S.M.I.D.S.Y's pace and now Kody is starting to run rings round him. Warhead does get a passing blow in on S.M.I.D.S.Y, but Kody simply responds by diving under the elegant self-righting wings and dumping the Battlebot into the Pit! Boom goes the dynamite! Erm, I mean Warhead! Kody has little time to celebrate, though, as Son of Whyachi has slipped Dead Metal's clutches and is already reaching a frightening speed. S.M.I.D.S.Y. runs off to join the rest of the troupe, who are having a flipping good time near the top of the arena. Well, Hexy D is, anyway. Tornado has taken at least two more flips and now it's Mortis' turn to be inverted. S.M.I.D.S.Y. shows up just as Alex self-rights and dives straight back under Mortis, slamming it into the northern wall. As the lifting plate starts tipping Mortis up, Tornado finally outmanoeuvres Hexy D and pushes the Battlebot further down the warzone... CRRRASH! Straight into Son of Whyachi! Now Hexadecimator is truly looking the worse for wear. The side panelling is bashed and buckled and it doesn't seem as quick as it used to be. It's not dead yet, however, and scurries back up the arena to help S.M.I.D.S.Y, who is now playfully propping Mortis up against the wall. Hexy D shoves S.M.I..D.S.Y. aside, letting Alex self-right with the lifting arm - only to be flipped again by Hexadecimator! S.M.I.D.S.Y. seizes the opportunity and shoves the inverted Mortis into the waiting arms of Sir Killalot! Mortis self-rights, but not quickly enough to stop the House Robot grabbing the lifter and hoisting it into the air! Killalot cheekily attempts to remove Mortis from the ring altogether, but Alex's thrashing of the axe forces Sir K to let him go. As Mortis escapes the CPZ, Hexy D ploughs under S.M.I.D.S.Y. and attempts to feed Kody to Killalot instead. S.M.I.D.S.Y. struggles, so Hexy D turns into the wall and flips - leaving S.M.I.D.S.Y. propped against the wall, jaws jutting off into space. Kody fiddle frantically with his controls and Refbot rolls into view, counter at the ready as Dylan decides to let sleeping bots lie... 1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9...10! At least until the countdown's over. FLIP! S.M.I.D.S.Y. somersaults over the fence and out of the rumble! Sorry, Mate! Should've Seen That Coming! Meanwhile, Son of Whyachi hasn't been very active since hammering Hexadecimator - that's because Tornado leapt in before it could spin up proper again and has been shunting the shuffler every which way it can! Now Tornado pushes it to the top of the warzone, where Mortis decides to join the fun. Hexy D follows shortly after, though much slower than before. Taking advantage, Tornado swaps dance partners and outmanouevres Hexy D to start slamming it against the western wall. Mortis, instead, tries to tangle its lifter up in Whyachi's cage, but the Battlebot quickly gets free and starts to spin up. Mortis stays on its tail and takes a couple of less powerful blows as the cage tries to reach lethal speed. Which each blow, however, Whyachi knows it further away, letting the hammers get faster and faster. They're certainly getting faster than Hexadecimator, anyway, because Dylan can't seem to get away from Tornado's relentless onslaught of blows. In fact, it can't seem to get anywhere at all anymore! Andy seems to realise this too and so Tornado finally backs off, allowing Refbot to take its place. 1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9...10! Three down, three to go and time is ticking down. Playzooki in particular seems anxious as Son of Whyachi starts sprinting towards its remaining foes, hammers a blur. Mortis tries to shove Tornado into the line of fire, but Tornado gets there first... CRRRASH! Mortis goes flying and Tornado goes straight for Whyachi, halting the slowed blades altogether! The Son is definitely a hefty horror, but the grip of those shuffling pads just can't top that of the former RW champ. Slowly but surely Tornado sends Whyachi back into Dead Metal's claws, just as a rather bruised and scuffed Mortis returns to reign down some hammer blows in their general direction. Tornado gets a couple of pangs in the polycarb' but Andy flees before anything worse can be inflicted. Playzooki tries to join him, but finds Son of Whyachi once again struggling to escape Dead Metal's saw blade. Tornado returns to the arena centre, closely followed by Mortis. The two RW bots size each other up and it's Mortis who lands the first blow this time, clipping Tornado and nearly managing to tip it over. Andy quickly recovers, however, and starts nibbling at Mortis' sides with the spinning drum. Alex attempts to fight back, but it's hard to do when you're being shoved all over the shop. Andy does his best to aim for the Pit, but no such luck. Not yet anyway. Speaking of bad luck, it looks as though Son of Whyachi is once again away from the CPZ and the hammers are already whirring like nobody's business. Spying another opportunity, Andy pushes Mortis in Whyachi's general direction... CRRRASH! And there he goes again! Mortis is damn near catapulted across the warzone on contact with the cage and Tornado is already galloping back in its general direction. Alex is finding it hard to brace himself, however, as Mortis' tracks don't seem to be terribly responsive. That last blow must have shaken the innards something fierce, as Tornado has little trouble avoiding the weapon synergy and slamming Mortis against the fence. Tornado keeps this up until Son of Whyachi waddles back over to play some more. Andy deftly dodges the cage, but the now sluggish Mortis is less lucky. CRRRASH! Mortis bounces off the fence and spins like a top before ceasing movement altogether. Refbot drifts over to check for himself, but Playzooki decides to make it official. CRRRASH! Well, if Mortis wasn't dead before, it sure looks like it now. Alex can't get either track to respond; all he can do is raise the lifter and hammer the ground in frustration as Refbot begins the countdown... 1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9...10! And on that note... 10...9...8...7... Son of Whyachi turns its attention to Tornado, but Andy knows better than to try anything funny now. 6...5...4... Tornado easily outruns Whyachi and begins a (premature?) victory lap around the ring, while Playzooki shows off Whyachi's softshoe shuffle. 3...2...1... CEASE! Well. That was an opening fight. ![]() Four robots have bitten the dust, but two are still hungry for something a little sweeter. With both teams keen to taste victory, it's time to ask the Judge who gets the first table at the Grand Finale buffet. ... It's teatime right now, OK? ![]() SON OF WHYACHI DAMAGE: 5 /5 (KO'd Mortis, wounded Hexy D and scuffed up several others. Brutal.) AGGRESION: 3 / 5 (Often on the offensive, but just as often overpowered or outran) STRATEGY: 3 / 5 (Did get to focus on Hexy D and Mortis, but couldn't avoid being slammed about) CONTROL: 3 / 5 (Did well when given breathing space; less so in pile-ups and CPZs) TOTAL = 14 / 20 TORNADO DAMAGE: 4 / 5 (The drum did some nice slices 'n' dices, but the KO of Hexy D saves it here) AGGRESSION: 5 / 5 (Constantly on everybody's case) STRATEGY: 5 / 5 (Did well feeding other bots to Whyachi - and even better feeding Whyachi to everyone else!) CONTROL: 4 / 5 (Steady throughout, save the odd flip and axe blow) TOTAL = 18 / 20 It was a fun brawl, but it's Son of Whyachi who lets the family down! TORNADO GOES THROUGH TO THE FINAL! ------------------------------------------------- LATER ON: ELIMINATOR 2 Breaker Box VS Granny's Revenge 2 VS The Mousetrap VS Pussycat VS Redrum VS Sump Thing HOUSE ROBOTS: Growler & Shunt No time limit for tactics as before. Just remember that the sooner you get them in, the sooner I can get started again! Thank you.
