Of course we want to enter, otherwise we wouldnt do it.
thabks now whos left, what about Tony Politzi or
Paul Cuomo, but definatley no Timothy!!!!
Ill enter SLAM!, take 4kg off by taking off the side skirts
Stats:
Robot Name: SLAM! 3
Shape: Box wedge, ala Storm II. The front wedge is angled at 42* to deflect spinner attacks
Weight: 154kg
Dimensions: 100 x 75 x 20
Motivation: 4 x internally mounted CNC Aluminium wheels coated with vulkalon rubber for grip
Power: 4 x B42-500s at 60v, providing 120HP!
Armour: 4mm hardox all over
Weaponry:
1)Firestorm-style blade on the wedge to give it 0 GC
2)Pushing Power/ Full Body Hammer
3)Electric lifting arm, hinged at the back of the robot and powered by 2 x Linear Actuators
Top Speed: 28mph, but it will be kept down to 17mph for pushing and only pushed to full for the hammer attack
Ground Clearance: 0 at front due to wedge, effectively 0 at sides and rear due to 5mm titanium skirts
Turning Circle: 0
Srimech: The arm
Colour: Black, with the name painted in white on top
Strengths: Immense pushing power
Weaknesses: No weaponry guaranteed to cause damage
Alex The Red Knight is 5KG too heavy!
And Slam!3 is 4KG too heavy
Anyway here is the draw:
1. Ziggy VS Slam!3
2. Revolver VS Tax Cutter
3. Drive VS Back With You
4. Red Knight VS Puzzel
Tactics please
or maybe TicTacs, Whatever
I did say, remove the skirts :)
I dont know enough about Ziggy to give detailed tactics, but from what Aaron as provided it looks good. I dont know the front ground clearance (help, anyone?), if it is above zero Ill be fine to attack the front, lift it and slam it into the corners. SLAM! is well capable of OOTAs, as it has more than 8 times the power of Storm II. Good luck Aaron :)
My tactic is to simply annoy Drive to hell with my 2 robots. Make sure that pusher never has a clear shot at BOTH robots, ever. Both halves of my clusterbot can get under that GC, but Back to Rock can actually lift it so it will lose control. With You can then hit the pit release button, and the duo can pit it :proud:
gluck mr Joey
and gluck to you too Ben
I thought Liam said to take off the skirts, which would reduce the weight to 150?
Anyway, tactics, predictions, that type of thing:
Ziggy vs. SLAM! 3 - Ziggy will exploit SLAMs inability to run inverted and get it out of the arena.
Revolver vs. Tax Cutter - Tax Cutter will bash Revolvers exposed wheels in before Steve can get him down the pit.
DRIVE vs. Back With You - This depends on what rule is being used for clusterbots:
IF you only have to immobilise one to get the whole robot out: Go for With You. I have three times its weight and four extra motors, which translates to a lot more power and traction. Get it down the pit, and then perhaps mess around with the defeated BTR a bit, shove that in there too.
IF you have to get both out: Go for BTR first, With You shouldnt be of much threat while I take on BTR. Push it into House Robots or pit, and then erase and rewind, recording over by doing the same to With You.
In either case, dont go near the CPZs or the pit unless it is for the purpose of shoving something in. :proud:
Red Knight vs. Puzzel: Puzzel to outwit Red Knight and get it over the fence.
Good luck people :)
Tic-Tocs: Puzzel to charge in, flip the weapon extension of red knight over and flip the whole robot OOTA before the slow linear actators can do their job.
