But what are you entering that in?
New Blood
lol, I didnt notice this tournament till now
guess Ill create something for the new blood myself
Whats the GC under the skirts?
Heres a little piece of machinery Id like to enter in the New Blood competition
Name - Sheer Heart Attack
Shape - Invertible tracked box, only the main-body between the tracks is shorter then the tracks (as can be seen on the picture), build in such a way that the tracks are in contact with the ground no matter what (like 101), only with two titanium bars at the end of both tracks to protect them from destructive spinners
Weight - 110 Kilogram
Speed - 24 km/h (15 mph)
Dimensions - 90*100*25 cm
Ground Clearance - Zero underneath the tracks, but with an overhang
Power -2x LEM130s at 48v
Movement - Two sturdy titanium tracks, with rubber strips attached to them for traction
Turning Circle - Zero
Weaponry - A 22 kilogram titanium spinning drum at the front of my machine equipped with 10 hardox teeth, powered by a LEM 130 and spinning around at 5000 RPM, which produces nearly 40 kJ.
Armour - 6 mm titanium all around (including the tracks themselves)
Srimech - It€™s invertible
Strenghts - Devestating against most wedges, nice traction
Weakness - Exposed (but quite sturdy) tracks might be a weakness
Notes- I designed this robot to be a robot which gains it€™s advantage by driving OVER an opponent, a bit like Barberous. The exposed tracks are the ultimate way to keep in contact with the floor no matter what kind of ramp I drive up, so that if a good rambot or whatever gets underneath me in a threatening way, I can simply go in full reverse and escape. The drum, ofcourse, is a perfect way to hurt an opponent while he€™s underneath you.

OK Enterprise and SHA are in the New Blood. A note for Kevin though, Im assuming a reasonably high GC under the skirts seeing you didnt specify.
Its still pretty low under the skirts.
Having just received word that not everyone is happy with the downtime this tournament is undergoing, I feel I have to restate my position.
I do not have writers block. Writing such a lot of fanfic recently has caused other projects of mine, namely a book I wish to get published, to be put on the back burner. Although I enjoy writing the NSBFL, my book is far more important to me, and its that Im concentrating on.
NSBFL X-2 will be kicked off when I feel Ive done enough work on the book for the time being.
Well said.
Same with any of my tournaments generally for gettign enough lyrics to give Glen to put the music to.
Im in no position to tell people to get moving with tournaments as we all know... :P
I think we all have other stuff to be getting on with at this moment in time which prioritises over fanfic.
Dropping Aquarius VS Ringwraith since A: I dont think RIch will ever respond to the challenge, and B: Myself, andy, and Steve are requesting a Melee between:
MSSD
Tails
Knuckles
Robotnik Twins
Im sure you know where my stats are [on this page] And Andy will post a link to knuckless stats in a bit.
If theres gonna be a Sonic melee, then stats for Knuckles are http://teamcode14.proboards24.com/in...133379047here.
Ill file the melee under grudge matches.
The Translator eh? sweet stuff Andy :proud:
Ive decided to enter Back to Rock 2 in the TYOM
Name - Back to Rock II
Shape - A box with a slightly sloped front
Weight - 100 Kilogram
Speed - 29 km/h (18mph)
Dimensions - 90x75x30 cm
Ground Clearance - 0 underneath skirts and at the front, 8 mm anywhere else
Power - 2x Etek motors at 48 volt
Movement - Four wheels, 20cm diameter
Turning Circel - Zero
Weaponry - It has a broad hydraulic lifting arm which can easily lift 200 kg. To easily get underneath an opponent, it has two lifting plates at the bottom of the arm, one on the left end and one on the right end, instead of one large lifting plate like Behemoth.
Between the two plates, in the centre of the scoop, I mounted a vertical diamond edged Pussycat-style blade, powered by a S28-150 Magmotor, spinning upwards at approximately 3000 RPM, which will hopefully rip off some armour, or more likely, a tire, while lifting an opponent. Jamming a blade into an opponent while lifting it hopefully provides as much control over an opponent than a Behemoth-style grabbing claw/axe can, and it€™ll surely do more damage. (To avoid confusion, the blade is actually part of the lifter, so when the lifter moves up, the blade moves along).
On both sides of the bots is a pair of 5 mm titanium skirts, to make sure I won€™t get flipped very often, as hydraulic srimechs just aren€™t as fast as pnuematic ones.
Armour - 6 mm titanium all around
Srimech - The lifter self-rights the robot when needed
Strenghts - Nice weapon synergy, high traction
Weakness - Hydraulic srimech might prove to be slow

Notes - Proud winner of The Spanish Inquisition QT :proud:
Just so everyone knows, I am officially starting this on Monday. I do however have some good news and some bad news.
There will be an NSBFL 8. However, after that I quit writing fanfic to concentrate more on writing the kind of fiction you have to buy. Oh, and I lied. There is no bad news:proud:
Ill enter the next one.

If I can enter for the footy then Ripe and Ann for the football check the footy vapourbot cup.
Scrap Cholera for the annihilator, replace with Orka MK4. Stats should be in the Fowler Fic Wars.
Also, No Not Steven Whatsisname has been renamed Y4.
Finally, throw Obliteration into the Bizzare Battles, if I can.

Just change bots to their most recent incarnations.
Just change S.D. IV to Metal Sonic Spin Dash in the Tag Team and thatll be fine for me, Franky :)
Oh yeah can you get rid of the safety camera of Ripe and put him in new blood.
For everyone but Tim, fine.
For Tim, I cant enter Ripe and Anne because Anne is 45 KG overweight, and you didnt enter a robot called Ripe so I cant check its stats.
Ill give you some advice check vapour footy cup posts on Tuesday 31st January 2006 8:08PM and the first robot on Saturday 28th January 2006 7:25pm. If I feel like Im being moody and shounting at you Frank Im not.
Sorry, I got the name of the robot mixed with the name of the team. Anne is still overweight though.
What I took away the back TAN claws oh Ill shed the armour down so it fits in with the rules.
Your armour has no thickness, so how exactly do you expect it to be cut down?
Save me a place in every empty spot there is please.
Ok do what the X-terminator team does and lower the battery value.
(Message edited by dogbot4000 on February 22, 2006)
Yeah, getting rid of some batteries is so going to cut off 45kg...
oh screw this enter hus instead of Anne.
OK, Ill let Hus in.
By the way, word to the wise, this goes for both Tim and Tony. I dont tolerate arguments in my threads. Starting one will get all your robots kicked out of everything youve entered, so leave each other alone.
Ok and I wasnt having an argument with Ant anyway.
Just nipping things in the bud. Just in case I sounded biased, it goes for anyone. If Chris Cooper gets into a big fight with Alex Holt, theyre out. Not that they would, I dont think they argue with anyone, but you get the point.
Are we still allowed to fight the robots? :wink:
Unless I get the last few stats and places filled, no:proud:
