Robot Wars: The Legends Return

Thanks for posting, guys

Welcome back to Robot Wars: The Legends Tournament! So far, 101 and Diotior are in the final where they will fight for the first place in the grand final. But first, a special event, about flippers :)

FLIPPER FRENZY

From Ipswich, in Suffolk, Chaos II!

They won Robot Wars twice with that Co2 powered flipper. Chaos II has flipped more robots out of the arena than any other robot.

From Staffordshire, Bulldog Breed!

A semi-finalist, where X-Terminator beat them. A normal wedge with a powerful flipper, but it is easily damaged by axes.

From Surrey, Dantomkia!

Also a semi-finalist, but aside from the flipper, it can spin on the spot and whack other robots. It is unreliable, though.

From Hampshire, M2!

They beat robots such as Pussycat and Tiberius III in the past. Its fast and powerful, but the wheels are easily punctured.

From London, in Greater London, Roobarb!

This robot made it to Round Two last time. They claim it has special armour, but that hasn't stopped it from being beaten in the past. Will it turn into custard here?

From West Sussex, The Grim Reaper!

Will it scare the others away? Hopefully with its powerful flipper that helped it into the semi-finals last time. But it can't do any real damage and the wheels are exposed as well.

Roboteers, stand by!

B1: Chaos II, Bulldog Breed, Dantomkia
B2: M2, Roobarb, The Grim Reaper
House Robots: Sgt Bash and Matilda

3-2-1: Activate!

This should be good! Chaos II is the most successful out there and immedietly THROWS Dantomkia in the air! Dantomkia recovers, only to be pushed aside by The Grim Reaper. Roobarb FLIPS M2 over, but M2 self-rights! Bulldog Breed bumps in Dantomkia and flips it over as well. Dantomkia self rights and heads after Chaos II. Revenge in the making here, I think! Roobarb pushes The Grim Reaper in Sgt Bash, who grabs down on the front with his jaws. The Grim Reaper tries to get away, but in comes Matilda with her flywheel. OHH! Theres a gash in the side of The Grim Reaper! Sgt Bash lets it go. Is The Grim Reaper OK? M2 chases after Bulldog Breed. The pit release button opens, you heard the siren. Roobarb opened it, but Chaos II comes in and FLIPS Roobarb over! Roobarb self-rights. Dantomkia is standing still. Is it immobolised? The Grim Reaper is OK, but Bulldog Breed pushes it towards the wall and flips it...NO! The Grim Reaper just staying in there, but its against the wall. It self-rights and heads back in the fight. The Refbot is counting out Dantomkia. We know its unreliable, and Mike Lambert is heading out.
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10!
Matilda hits Dantomkia with her flywheel. No damage, but its still out. The Grim Reaper chases after Bulldog Breed, but gets sideswiped by Roobarb and pushed towards the wall again! The Grim Reaper flips itself free. Chaos II pushes M2 over the flame pit! Is M2 OK, because I don't think its moving freely! OH! What was that! The Grim Reaper drove itself into the pit! What a shock. Bulldog Breed flips Roobarb over. Roobarb self-rights, but how much CO2 has it used up. How much have ALL of our robots used up? Sgt Bash and Matilda push Dantomkia towards on the floor flipper...OH! Chaos II flips Sgt Bash onto his side! M2 pushes Bulldog Breed away. Total mayhem out there! M2 isn't moving freely anymore. I think its been immobolised on one side. Refbot comes in.
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10!
Well done to them, but M2 is out. The last ten seconds count down. Bulldog Breed FLIPS Roobarb up, but not over. Chaos II crashes into them and pushes Roobarb into the wall.

Cease!

What a fight! The judges will have to decide who is the winner of the Flipper Frenzy: Chaos II, Bulldog Breed or Roobarb!

Bulldog Breed: S: 2 C: 2 D: 1 A: 3 Total: 8

Chaos II: S: 2 C: 2 D: 1 A: 2 Total: 7

Roobarb: S: 2 C: 2 D: 1 A: 2 Total: 7

A close fight, but Bulldog Breed wins! Well done to them.

Next up, the heat final between Diotior and 101!

Can anyone guess why Sgt Bash and Matilda were in there :proud:

...they were the house robots in the first annihilation of the house rob...uh...flipper frenzy? :proud:

Good stuff Elliot, looking forward to the final.

Chaos 2 has only flipped 6 robots out of the arena, Dantomkia's done in 9. Since when was 9 smaller than 6?

You're right, Chris. Sorry about that. I should have put it was the first robot to flip another out of the arena

Next battle up tommorow, maybe

Welcome back to Robot Wars: The Legends Return! Its the first heat final of the series

HEAT FINAL

From Kettering, in Northamptonshire, 101!

From Dublin, in Ireland, Diotior!

Roboteers, stand by!

B1: 101
B2: Diotior
House Robots: Cassius Crhome and Sir Killalot

3-2-1: Activate!

101 is the fastest here, but Diotior has that scoop. It turns to get under the front of 101, but 101 turns to push Diotior from the side. Diotior swerves away and gets under one side with the scoop. Now it pushes 101, but it doesn't flip yet. I wonder why? 101 escapes, but Diotior gives chase. 101 turns around to push Diotior away, but Diotior gets the scoop under again and FLIPS 101 up, but not over! 101 crashes back to earth and bashes into Diotior again. Diotior pushed, but its difficult to get hold of, Diotior. 101 has a spike, but I don't think it'll do any real damage. Diotior backs away onto the flame pit! Oh, dear! 101 pushes them again, underneath the raised scoop towards Cassius Chrome, who pushes Diotior out of his CPZ. The fur is burning away. 101 pushes it towards the pit release button, but Diotior pushes back! 101 breaks free and backs away. Diotiors scoop is in the normal position again, so will it flip 101 over? 101 presses the pit release button. Thats a tactic popular in Robot Wars nowadays. 101 bashes into Diotior again. The fur, look at it, theres nothing left almost! Ha-ha! Diotior, OH! It flips 101 again, but 101, with those tracks from a washing machine, is not flipped over. So Diotior, is still in it here. Liam tries to get to the side again, but 101 crashes in from the back and pushes Diotior towards the pit! Diotior turns away as the last ten seconds count down. Diotior pushes 101 this time, but 101, the tracks are designed for extra traction, is holding its ground. What a fight!

Cease!

A close battle. The judges will have to decide who goes through to the grand final!

101: S: 3 C: 2 D: 2 A: 2 Total: 9

Diotior: S: 2 C: 2 D: 1 A: 2 Total: 7

101 goes through to the grand final! Well done to Joey McConnel and Mike Franklin! Comiserations to Liam Elliot and Peter Redmond, but they did well to get this far!

See you later with Heat B

Sorry if that fight seemed boring. I didn't see a way how both could really do anything to each other, other than push each other around. Its boring when they just push each other around

Complaints, thumbs up are welcome :proud:

Anyone here

Thanks for the tactics, guys

Welcome back to Robot Wars: The Legends Return! Last time, 101 was the first robot to go into the grand final. Which robot will join them from Heat B?

BATTLE ONE

From Sheerness, in Kent, Major Tom!

Made from a bumper car and a vending machine, but with a spinning flywheel on the front that can cause damage to weak armour. Its never escaped the heats, though.

From Bournemouth, in Dorset, Razer!

The winners of Series Five and the first two World Championships, this robot is well known for its powerful crushing beak. It has been unreliable in the past.

Roboteers, stand by!

B1: Major Tom
B2: Razer
House Robots: Mr Psycho and Growler

3-2-1: Activate!

Razer would be the favourites here, I'm sure. Immedietly rushing to the side of Major Tom to get the beak in. Major Tom turns and the flywheel hits Razer. Sparks fly, but Razer isn't damaged. In fact, now it CRUSHES down on the major! Look at that! This is Razer at its best. Major Tom can't get away, but now Razer lets it go. Kody gets Major Tom away. Razer gives chase. It needs to avoid the flywheel of Major Tom, and it does so, heading towards the back of it. Pushing Major Tom towards Mr Psycho! Down comes the hammer...OH! It hits Major Tom on the head! That can't be good! Razers beak comes down again, crushing the back of Major Tom. Taking it away from Mr Psycho and into the pit release button! Down goes the pit. Razer turns around to face Major Tom towards the pit. DOWN it goes! Major Tom out, and Razer through.

Cease!

Major Tom had a minor problem, and gets kicked out of the competition!
Razer goes through to the next round!

Next fight:

Stegosaurus VS Splinter

Tactics, please :)
