c: hammers cant be used to pin, unless they are attached to a hyrdraulic thingy
d: isnt xmas crazy bots YOUR tornament?
Who's ready for Heat B? I know I am, and if you aren't: Too Bad... :p
Entered by Samuel Park: Theseus!!!
It's an interesting machine, using tough Hardox armor and an Atomic-style flipper. The one hitch is that, as always, there's limited Co2. And is that a risk that Sam's willing to take?
Entered by Jordan Brown: Terrorhurtz!!!
Surprisingly a newcomer to VRW, but a rather tough and old veteran. The robot's weapons are a vicious and lethal axe, combined with a vacuum sticking it to the arena floor. The one hitch is that this puts more stress on the motors, which can cause problems...
And our house robots today will be Magnavox and Auger Henstrom.
3..2..1..
ACTIVATE!!!
And in comes Theseus, trying to get to the back of Terrorhurtz, which is exposed and not meshed to the ground, but Terrorhurtz gets to the side and begins firing its axe. No real damage caused except some scars on the paint, as Theseus again attempts to get behind Terrorhurtz. Terrorhurtz, via the weight difference, gets underneath the side of Theseus and starts axing the top. Sam, too busy trying to escape, doesn't really seem to notice where Jordan is shoving him: Into the flywheel of Magnavox!!!
CRASH!!!
Theseus now gets off of Terrorhurtz's wedge with a bit of damage to the Atomic-style flipper, however he is now cornered in between Magnavox and the arena wall. Samuel, realizing he must do the unthinkable, gets underneath the front of Magnavox, as he presses the flip button, and flips Magnavox over!!! The televised menace is now lying on his right side, as Auger Henstrom comes in and attacks Theseus for what he did to Magnavox. Terrorhurtz, not wanting to win via house robot interference, Gets to the side of Auger and begins to axe it to pieces. Terrorhurtz is now rammed into the panel release button, as the Guardian steps in and gives Auger a yellow card! Or maybe it was Theseus for flipping Magnavox. Eh, nobody cares, as the Soviet house robot heads back to his CPZ. But what's going on with Terrorhurtz?
SIZZLE!!!
It looks like a couple drops of Thermite have dripped on top of Terrorhurtz, and they've burned their way through the polycarbonate!!! Terrorhurtz is trying to get over to the Co2 vent, but it appears one of the motors has been welded shut by the Thermite, so Terrorhurtz cannot make it to the vent. It appears the Thermite has immobilized Terrorhurtz, as the Guardian lands and counts the Robot Wars Veteran out.
1..2..3..4..5..6..7..8..9..10!!!
And now we bring our fire control teams and do the only thing we can to stop a Thermite reaction: spray fire-extinguishing foam all over Terrorhurtz. This works very well, as the Thermite finally cools down.
CEASE!!!
And the winner, by knockout: Theseus!!!
...what was fair about the fight being ended by random chemicals dripping on one of the robots? It's a lot like a robot winning because its opponent was driving towards it and a large hole opened up in the ground with no prior warning...
In my opinion hazards - the pit excepted - do not exist to end fights suddenly and unfairly like that. Same goes for the house robots. If whoever entered Terrorhurtz wants to have that rewritten, in my opinion they'd be very justified in asking and should recieve one.
sorry if you took offence jack :(
and when i said x-mas crazy bots it means i know what weapon and stats it has and from ZED (i finally found the site :mrgreen: )
but yeah sorry about that jack
no problem mate
and mark...thermite? :rofl:
Yes. The flaming mixture of Magnesium and Iron Oxide.
You haven't answered my question :?
In any ordinary case, the Thermite wouldn't have burned through the armour fast enough to stop the robot from cooling off on the Co2 vent, but Terrorhurtz's armour is polycarb, which is easy to burn through.
...and you had such a deus ex machina hazard in your arena because? You're still not answering my question :P
