Death Premonition
Henry VIII, King of Roboland
System Shock
LockJaw
The stats can be found on my profile.

just call it Henry VIII, ok? That way I do not have to keep typing it.

Mark&Liam

you two clearly arent aware of the drill around here, now nobody can force you to do it our way, but the big ammount of unorganised topics floating around gets annoying very quickly

please take a look at this topic, made especially for newcomers like you 2

http://www.fightingrobots.co.uk/discus/messages/760/10980.html?1205620349http://www.fightingrobots.co.uk/disc...tml?1205620349

please use this topic as the starting point of your fantasy robotic career, thank you very much

Well, at least I do not quit my tournament once I start it, Unlike some people.(not you)

Name - Quantum

Shape - Spuare

Weight - 100 Kilogram

Speed - 30 mph

Ground Clearance: 0mm with skirts.

Power - 4 LEM130s. thanks to recent advances in quantum mechanics, the LEMs are actually outside the bot, and only the power is inside
Movement - Four solid Unobtainium wheels.

Turning Circle - Zero

Weaponry - Quantum Disc. This disc, again thanks to quantum mechanics that are SO ADVANCED you wouldnt begin to understand it, can cause a total existance failure to the bot it impacts with. It also has 100kj power
Armour - 2CM Unobtanium. This is an element thats incredibly light to start with as well as stronger than hardox, and Ive atomically altered it to be better.
Srimech - invertible

Notes - Before anyone says this is impossible, my mothers a socialist and I spent a year in Spain. What do you say to that?

Unlike some people

And what people would these be? :P

the people who never finish their tournament.

Any specific names? Because this sounds suspiciously like an insult...

nope.

U stil hav only 12 robots, aiming for 64.May b it should b a smaller number

Thanks 4 the link Martijn, It should help a lot

My other 3 vapours Ill enter r:
Apocalypse
Collateral Damage
Warlord
I wont enter anymore bots, 8 is enough!

By the way, Kody, you and Seung Mina 3 have qualified for the tournament.

I may as wel withdraw all my bots frm this contest- wots the point of making up components?I could just say all my bots hav drydium armour.Drdium is a metal I made up. It is invincible, and I also have special glue that sticks my robot to the floor while leting it move so I cant get flipped either.Change it or I am withdrawing all 8 of my vapours:angry:

fine.
there will be no more fake alloys.

Im not withdrawing now

Thanks.

:proud:

Isnt Drydium infinately dense and so you could not build a robot out of it because your robot would be overweight.

What you want is unobtainium.

What about nonexistium?

Its also very heavy because it is normally alloyed with dark matter?! :crazy:

Oh yeah, forgot that bit.

Cyrilium armour is your best bet.

Here is my entry:

Name: Sun of Rippo
Shape: Wooden circular.
Dimensions: 20x20x20 x 1000mm
Weight: 500000 carats
Drive: 2x Jiang Minis motors. They are petrol powered motors weighing just 1kg each and can run for 10 minutes on just 1 millilitre of petrol. This produces around 200hp. The robot drives on two wheels made of indestructibulum, which are impervious to damage. They also provide ultimate traction using limpet technology.
Speed: 15.64 knots
Ground Clearance: 0.001 micrometers, but as this is invisible to the human eye, I€™ll just say it€™s 5mm.
Skirting: It wears a kilt in the McGregor tartan.
Armour: It uses a material known as Low Density Hardox, which is around as light as polycarbonate but has the tensile strength of pure iron. I have around 30mm thick all over. It is impossible to shatter or take chunks out of. It has a property known as heartofskadium, which allows the armour to be instantly regenerated once damaged. Behind this armour is 40mm of oxygen to withstand impacts.
Weapon: A spinning bar that is 20x2mm. It is powered by a black hole generator and spins at around 10,000,000rpm as it is geared 2:1. The black hole runs off 1x 9v battery, which has a self-charging system built in; basically meaning the weapon can never stop spinning. It€™s secondary weapon is a clusterbot consisting of Mass Destruction Ultimate and CrankShafted which both come out of the black hole in times of desperate need. They are shaped like /\/\/\/\/\ to cause more damage.
Self-righting mechanism: It has a linear actuator powered by a self-righting bar.
Strengths: It has no weaknesses, has a little red flashing light on top
Weaknesses: Paul won€™t be getting any weaknesses :)

Mark, a question

the 100 kg weight limits, do liquids and gases carried inside your robot count towards the weight of the robot?

Name: V-type thing
Shape: Humanoid-like
Colour: Fleshy
Speed: 5mph
Weight: 100 kg
Armour: Flesh and fat.
Power: Food.
Motivation: 2 legs
Ground Clearance: 5mm at the tips of the feet, 0mm everywhere else
Dimensions: 60cm x 100cm x 160cm
Weaponry: Flamethrower that only works when it wants to, and it doesnt
Srimech: Can get up like a human does
Strengths: None
Weaknesses: The letter W.

AJ, stop being so bloody good at parodying certain newcomers to the forum. It makes me laugh far too much.

An old friend wants to say hello. :proud:

Starfire

Shape: Rounded box.

Colour: Magenta

Weight: 100kg

Speed: 25mph

Armour: 26mm 7075 aircraft aluminium

Drive: An engine nicked from a Mercedes Benz SLR McLaren, 722 Edition. It makes 642 horsepower and 600 lb/ft of torque.

Power: Batteries transferred in from my magic power plant somewhere...

Motivation: 2WD

Ground Clearance: 5mm

Turning Circle: -5 metres.

Dimensions in CM: 110 x 80 x 45

Weaponry: A 5780 RPM vertical flywheel powered by Storm IIs success record. If it drops below 50%, the flywheel doesnt do anything. If its above 50%, then itll spin at maximum capacity. Its attached to an unobtainium arm that can spin 360 degree for reasons unknown.

Srimech: Flywheel.

Strengths: Excellent at taking the ssip (unscramble) out of Martyn Forsyth.

Weaknesses: You figure em out. :wink:

Martijn,

No. Hydraulic and pneumatic canisters dont count.

Actually, no fake alloys except unobtanium, which is allowed by the FRA.

First heat will be up in a few moments....

First match is this:

Behemoth Evo X
Intrigue
Liar 2
Brutalis 1.0



We have seen Behemoth in other series of Robot Wars. still practically the same design with the scoop and top axe.

Intrigue is a rather new robot. With its powerful axe, it can easily destroy other bots.
A good robot from Team ZlayerZ.

Liar 2 has appeared in several minor tournaments, and now is in Robot Wars. It has that flipper we all know about.

Brutalis is a Dantomkia shaped robot, very innovative design. Its weapon is a very powerful front hinged flipper, with about 1000 psi.

anyone want to share their bots tactics with me?

did you really need to make 5 posts in a row for all this?

can i just say AJs robot is so unrealistic. i have never heard anything so ridiculas in all my life. i mean, come on AJ you just cant get Mc Gregor tartan. make it believable next time please

oh and can i borrow your black hole genny :)

Yeah, youre right... the tartan would probably put it overweight. Can I remove that please?

And be my guest, black holes are selling out fast.

Ill enter!
