Looking good...those look more like flywheels than angle grinders though :P
Me: Yes, there are angle grinders in the arena, along the wall of each wall, but not those crappy ones in Robot Wars that didnt do damage. . The discs are 25kg and have 2 7.5kg hardox teeth to destroy with. They spin at 1250rpm and dish out about 50kJ a hit.
:P
Ah. My bad :P
How about Team Simpsons?

Thats not an angle grinder then :wink:.
All right, and in your view what EXACTLY is an angle grinder? A disc that spins at 0rpm? Because thats what it looks like in RW. :P

Dont you mean cylinder? :) Also those dimensions seem quite compact...:wink:
Just a helpful pointer. :)
Oh, and Aaron...no offense, but I am kind of hoping to get this whole thing kicked off within a few weeks, so maybe if you could have those new vapourbots planned for C&B3, thatd be great, but for now, would it be possible to enter some of your older designs if you havent got new ones up yet?
Angle grinders use abrasion cutting wheels, and cut by friction. They have no teeth as such. All the sparks are actually fragments of metal flying from the cut.
Bah.
The Discs of Death then. :proud:
So, Aaron, are you all right with waiting until C&B3 to show off bots youre still working on (and still will be for a while)? When I say no offense, I mean it because Id really love to see what these new bots look like :proud:, but I know how long it can take to make a proper vapourbot and I dont want to push you to finish them too quickly, so... :proud:
Okay. Andre, I suggest we use these teamups. Thanks to Kody. :)
Namies Style/Warhead
Secret/The Matador
Hexadecimator/Sir Spinalot
Razer/Vlad the Impaler
Typhoon 2/Chaos 2
Turbulence/Nightmare
Mechavore/Hypno-Disc
Dantomkia/Biohazard
Also, I am not too fond of Team Simpson. :lame: How does Team Demolition sound? I really like this one. :)
Sounds good to me Chezza. :mrgreen:
Im actually gonna have to cut my vapourbot upgrades short for about a month. Im hopefully (pending entry approval) competiting in the Kilcoy Road Rally on the 26th of April and need the next few weeks to prepare my not so rally worthy car...
Ill probably be lazy and just throw in the Infusion Family again, some new stats for them coming in the next few days with a render (Currently in the process of trying to model the gearboxes, including spur gears, bearings, shafts, keyways and the electric clutches for the KE boost.)
But looking at the lack of AJ, and my lack of time, we might have to withdraw yet.
Dont you DARE enter 8 Infusions. :proud:
Well wait two months while I get these upgrades done then :proud:
Two whole months? I dont think so. :P
Why not just enter what you did in C&B2? :P
I havent finished my entrants for C&B3 anyway :proud:
aww heck, Ive been waiting since September last year for Mattys stats :proud:
LOL Im not really that much of a patient person myself. :proud: The only reason I let those last two C&B tournaments hang for a while was because I had tons of schoolwork weighing me down and had no time to write battles. Now that that is no longer an issue...yeah. :proud:
Okay, since Team SpunOut are just DYING to get this out of the way so I can start C&B3...Im accepting Aarons squad of Infusions. Also, Ive received Andys (temporary) list of bots as well, so their team is complete. I just need Martyns entries, his team alignment with Jamie, and then I can post heat line-ups.
Andys bots:
SoR Hex
Rupture
Exertion
Wedgas Revenge
Psyclonised
GeForce 4.0
Axeon 2.0
Yet Another Cut Above The Rest
Just awaiting Martyns stats, so I can get an idea of which robots will go best together
All right, because Andre is being a real arrogant git, he is now banned from this tournament, and Chezza is unpaired now.
Dont complain, Andre, you had this coming. :angry:
All right, I talked with Tony on Messenger, and he is considering entering, but he says he needs some more help reconfiguring his robots.
Also, Martyn says that his bots will be up by Tuesday at the earliest.
Just some news :)
So that means we can roughly expect the tournament to begin on Thursday 17th December, 2901? :proud:
Well Im kinda hoping it gets started a tiny little bit before then, like...about 2-3 weeks from now. :proud:
Tony? Alex MW? Dave? You guys still out there?
I would enter, but my collection of bots are either too old to fight in the modern-world or are just plain overweight.
Nah, Id be more than happy to admit your bots, Dave, even at this climax. :)
how many do you want?

I think you need to ally yourself with another person. I think Chezza needs a new partner after Andre had his space cleaned.
Spiny doesnt link me to a bot, but several. :S
I dont mind if anybody wants to team up with team IOEBKWMTBUN, bearing in mind the majority of my 8 bots were designed during the era where I was on a high, aka 3+ years ago.
Stats for the updated http://vapourbots.crystalnode.net/fo...&t=104Infusion

I see Aaron is still in, so Team SpunOut is confirmed.
If I may ask, Aaron, are the names of the Infusions the same as from EOTR3? :P
Alright, I just need AJs 8 bots, Martyns 2, a few teams to pair up some bots (Team SpunOut, Dave/Chezza, Jamie/Martyn) and then I can start line-ups.

Indeed they are.

Forgot to mention that Jamie/Martyn and Dave/Chezza need team names.
How about Team JimBob Chezza?
