STRUGGLED???!!! Snakebite totally OBLITERATED Terror Turtle's armour in its qualifier, did you see the way it bent out of shape? I don't call that struggling.

Oh, predictions

Fight 1
Storm 2 should, in theory, win here. Its beaten Tornado already, and Ansgar has lost its two previous fights to ramming machines, so there you go.

Fight 2
Even if Typhoon 2 WAS fighting, it would have suffered at the claws of TAN, and I think Rawbot will suffer too.

Fight 3
I THINK Supernova will win, but I don't trust it to stay alive long enough (knock itself out). Hard COULD prove problems with its armour, but still...Don't count Spartacus out yet, it only seemed weak, but its oppodent WAS heavy, and the weapon could be leathal.

Fight 4
Don't ask. All 3 are very good robots. I fancy Pulveriser, and like the look of Snakebite, but I'll just go for Crushtacean as I know it can cause major shocks.

Matty, you're spoiling for serious trouble. There are only 3 pure Belgian robots that ever entered the World Championships.

In the first W C , Popposaurus Rex.Wasn't briljiant, but not bad ether.

Then we had Philiper. Didn't do badly.

And now Hard, that demonstrated a serious toughness.Except the battery problem.
Also, they are using the smallest cylinder I have builded a 50*100, and still they are capable to annoy the opponents, except the one for Flip-50*50-.Alan Wood provided the FP valve(the one from Project II).

And if you're thing the Belgians don't have roboteers in there midst that can do the job.Also Gravity and TAN have both a weaponsystem tought out and mainly builded by me. A Flemish-so Belgian- lowly educated mechanic.

About Snakebite.The weightuse isn't the smartest you can do, but as they are the only Swiss team they can't practice much or have nearby examples.

Crustecean.Good dependable machine.But as the builder can be seen as British, Dutch ,South African or Zimbabwan there is a possible controverse.

Supernova has always suffered from his own power.
On the other side, that's a lot of power.

Tornado,the old timer in this, has proven to be a very tough one, with lots of power.
But Storm II,as a newer version of the rambot idea, with overloads on power and the ultimate on armour is a fearsome opponent.

Ansgar still is 200 kg of machine, with a fair bit of speed,manoevrability and a bladespinner with 2 Bosch alike motors.

Don't forget, Philliper DID beat top-american Panzer MK2 in the 2nd WC. I don't call that rubbish.

But, I'd like to point out 2 things.

1;Its "DEpoppesaurus Rex"
2;D-Rex and Philliper were by the same team.

Also, I don't know ANY other swiss robot, so Snakebite it is. And its good too.

Christopher, it is even better, and that man that builded DePopposaurus Rex and Philiper 1 and 2 is called Philip Poppe. Thats in 1 go the reason for the names.

Hands up who thinks Christopher should calm down a little?

I predict Storm 2 will win:)

DAMN IT IT LOST :proud:

prediction................pain

For who?
