Dinowarrior Destruction...Revamped.

Ive given up on the last DD. I just didnt have the time, and I was kinda letting it down. However, Im now on a summer-break, so I think Ill start again.

I need eight people to enter six robots each. All must be vapour.

Stat requirements? Well, there arent that many...

-As far as weight goes, basic rules apply. 100 kilos for regular robots, 150 kilos for bankers, and 200 kilos for walkers. If you need questioning, just ask.
-Clusterbots are allowed, and there are unlimited numbers, but try and keep things realistic. Also, Im using the current RW rule (If 50% dies, it all dies).
-Passive robots are allowed, but Id rather not have too many.
-The stats, at the minimum, need to state the robots weight, body shape, armour, armour thickness, power, ground clearance, weapons, strengths and weaknessess (you can put NONE though). Anything else is up to you.
-No arguments.

This means Ill have to start all over again, but Itll be easier to do this time. I promise Ill get this done.

BTW, youll be fighting against my House Robots. The regular House Robots have their own battle at the end of the series.

The first eight people to enter will be paid a check, signed by me, for the equivilent of a million pounds in the next life, I promise!

Death Adder 4
Double Killa
Metalmorphosis
MORD2
Snakebite 4
SYNDOS

Stats for DA4, MORD2, S4 and SYNDOS can be found on PTT5 - here are the other two.

DOUBLE KILLA
A two part clusterbot that can attack joined together or apart.

DK1
Weight: 50kg
Shape: A Spawn Again-like wedge, painted blue, and two screws poking out the rear
Dimensions: 60 x 30 x 30
Speed: 13mph
Ground Clearance: 0 at front, 0 at sides and rear due to skirts, 2mm behind skirts
Armour: 4mm Hardox
Wheels: 4, inside robot
Power: 24V battery and motors
Weapon: CO2 powered flipper, with Chaos 2-style upward flip
Srimech: Flipper acts as srimech if it lands on its back; sides are slanted so if it rests on them, the flipper will still right it; two screws poke out of the rear so it cant rest there
Tactics: To flip opponents on their backs or OOTA.
Strengths: Classic wedge shape; fairly fast
Weaknesses: Ineffective against skirted opponents

DK2
Weight: 50kg
Shape: A low invertable box, shaped a bit like Drillzilla, with screws tapped into sides; painted green
Dimensions: 45 x 60 x 15
Speed: 16mph
Ground Clearance: 3mm at front and rear, 0 at sides due to skirts, 3mm behind skirts
Armour: 4mm Hardox
Wheels: 4, inside robot
Power: 36V battery and motors
Weapon: At front, two small Kan Opener style claws, each positioned at a front corner, used as a clamp on other robots and to hold onto DK1s rear; at rear, a horizontal spinning Pussycat-style saw blade
Srimech: Invertable; screws at sides prevent it resting there
Tactics: To clamp opponents and run them into arena obstacles, or to cause damage with the saw blade
Strengths: Fast and manouverable
Weaknesses: Weight disadvantage so it may not be able to pull or push some opponents

METALMORPHOSIS
Weight: 150kg with the heaviest weapon system on it.
Shape: Box wedge, with 5mm hinged Aerospace Grade Titanium skirts, meaning they work when flipped. The front wedge is also hinged.
Dimensions: 100 x 50 x 40
Speed: 15mph with the heaviest weapon system, 20mph with the lightest weapon system.
Ground Clearance: 0mm ground clearance due to hinged skirts and a front hinged wedge.
Armour: 5mm Aerospace Grade Titanium
Locomotion: Camshafts
Power: Camshafts powered by 2 C40-400 MagMotors at 36V, which give it a lot of power and speed.
Weaponry: The robot has interchangable weapons. These are:
*An Anti-Crush Frame ala Tornado (s6), but instead of the blade, there are skirts attached, giving a 0mm ground clearance, weighing 10kg.
*A low spinning saw weighing 5kg
*A small vertical disc weighing 5kg
*A 10kg rotating drum weapon like Little Drummer Boy
The front wedge is detachable, so we can fit the rotating drum on.
Srimech: Invertable
Tactics: Rush opponents and damage them with whatever weapon is fitted.
Strengths: Interchangable weaponry, good armour, fast
Weaknesses: Exposed camshafts on top

And Chris, noticing that million pounds in the next life thing - do you play The Simpsons Hit & Run by any chance?

Can I enter? If so reserve me a place please.

Shame you arent continuing the previous tourney, Chris as I wanted to mark my retirement from vapourboteering with the old DD tourney. However there is still the footy tournament in Velociraptor Fan Fic Series 6 for me to do & that will be it, however I will drop some predictions every often or so.

Im sorry Tommy ol buddy ol pal, but I was slipping away too much, an it simply wasnt worth coming back. Dont worry, I have much more time to do this.

AJ, although its against my best interests, OK, you can join.

ANYWAYS, LIST SO FAR

Three more entires would be nice, although I may be able to get away with just one more.

save me a space

I suppose I best get writing the stats for Mortgage

Thanks Martyn. Have done. I need two more people to enter, but I could easily start with what Ive got if no one else does enter.

Reserve me a spot ta:)

Spot reserved. Now I just need one more person.

chris i think its safe to say if steve was here he would enter

Ill keep that spot vacant anyway...wouldnt be fair for other people.

Whilst I wait for the final few stats, here is the basic plan. It is done in slots and each slot I hope will take 2-3 days.

SLOTS 1-3
The basic heats. The heats are simple knock-out, like Series 5.
Between Round 1 and Round 2 are two Mayhems with three real robots. Why am I doing this? I decided, since the last Dinowarrior was supposed to be Tom Brisbournes retirement, that I would do this to cheer him up. The twist is that the melees feature his favourite robots.

SLOT 4
The first of two annihilators (see above)

SLOT 5-7
The rest of the heats

SLOT 8
The second annihilator

SLOT 9
A special event starring the House Robots

SLOT 10
The final. It plays like the Armed Forces Special at RWE1. There will be a playoff and a battle featuring the two annihilator winners.

In all, well finally find a DD winner, Tom will be happy again, and the House Robots finally find out who is strongest.


Oh, BTW, dont worry about me not having annihilators you can enter...Ill have them in my next tourny, I promise.

150 kilos for bankers,

So if I get a job as a desk clerk at the local ANZ, does that mean I get 150kg to play with? Seriously, what is with the Banker term?

PMSL @ ^^^

You know what the term Banker is. What, did Drillzilla go over your head?

Theyre shufflers.

Drillzilla is, like Matty said, a SHUFFLER!!!

Never has the term banker been commonly used by any roboteering community that I have seen to describe robots like Son of Whyachi or Drillzilla. UK or US.

Shufflers dont have legs, rather they have large feet that shuffle along. Also, dont start calling them cams or crankshafts either.... so wrong.

Anyway, Im not starting a war, so Im outta here :proud:

Due to a change of plans on this forum [Im not going to say what, you will see when the time comes] Im switching The Holy Hand Grenade with Mr. Slave 2 [no big loss, Holy Hand Grenade was built to enter NSBFL8 anyway]

Knightrous Oxide, do you have the Robot Wars Extreme Official Guide? Well, if you do, youll see my confusion. The stats describe Drillzilla as having two banks of feet.

But, if the technical term is Shuffler then OK, itll be fine.

P.S. Im saying hello to your little friends.

P.P.S. Id rather have all entries in by this weekend. If I dont have eight people, I may have to kick someone else out.

OK guys, Ive had no one else enter, and I really want to start soon.

Unless someone enters really quickly (I do NOT want real robots in the main competition), Ill have to do a draw between Martyn and AJ, and say the first person to get his stats in gets the final sixth spot.

Give me a minute, and I will upload my stats onto the far forum and post links.

but matty entered after both me and aj

EDIT: Nevermind.

OK, so AJ has filled his spot. But now I need the stats for either Matty or Martyn. Unless someone else enters, its EVERY MAN FOR HIMSELF.

Name-Forklift 2
SHAPE- Low box with rear anti self flipping wedge
COLOUR- Yellowy orange
WEIGHT- 100kg
SPEED- 18mph
TURNING CIRCLE- 0m
GROUND CLEARANCE- 0mm at front due to flipper, 0mm at sides due to skirts 7mm with out, 0mm at rear due to wedge. The skirts are held down by torsion springs
ARMOUR- 3mm hardox
WHEELS- has 6 inner storm 2 style wheels
POWER- 2 x S28 Magmotors on 24v.
WEAPONS- it now uses a flipping arm that works much like the matadors or Toro€™s the flipper is powered by co2 on a 120mm pneumatic ram, working at 145psi, the flipper front is pretty unique as its front is like that of a fork lift (it has 2 flat bits of metal) this is welded onto the flipper, the arm can toss robots very high and if possible out of the arena. The prongs of the forklift weapon are used to get under the corners or gaps of skirts
SRIMECH- the flipper self rights the robot but because of the rear wedge thing it self rights like firestorm does i.e. the front wheels will go down first
NOTES- this is a modified version of my robot from the panic attack forum.
STRENGTHS- Powerful weapon
WEAKNESSES- limited co2

NAME- 25€™s revenge (thanks to Andy for the help on this robot) (was 25)
SHAPE- Invertible disc like in the rw€™games
COLOR- The shell is blue with the spinning bars being yellow with the ends tipped with red
WEIGHT- 150kg
DIMENSIONS- 80cm diameter X 30cm
SPEED- 12mph
TURNING CIRCLE- 0mm
GROUND CLEARANCE- 6mm both ways up
ARMOUR- 5mm titanium/vanadium alloy with 2mm polycarbonate laminate to stop the carbon tipped discs
MOVEMENT - The robot is a shuffler which works both ways up
POWER- 2 x S28 Magmotors on 24v.
WEAPONS- Ok its based on son of whyachi but not quite like it. The robot has the 3 triangle spinning bars like SoW but they are attached to the center outer rim of the robot this spins round at around 3000rpm this is designed to make a robot like SoW that cant be flipped over and immobilized the spinning outer shell is powered by 2 B42-500 Magmotors at 36volts
NOTES- This weapon idea was come up by me Martyn Forsyth and Andrew Jackson it also flies the Scottish flag
STRENGTHS- Invertible, has powerful weapon, the top and bottom both ways can€™t be hit by axes or crushers due to the bars
WEAKNESSES- easy to flip when weapon isn€™t spinning

Name: Disco 5
Shape: Low Wedge with small rear wedge
Motivation: it now uses four storm 2 style Vulcalon wheels
Speed: 12.5 Mph
Weight: 100kg
Height: 300mm to top of body, 600mm to the top of the disc
Length: 1300mm
Width: 600mm
Weapon: 500mm Vert. flywheel @ 3000rpm. Has a 4.00 second spin up time due to the C40-500 Magmotor on 36v with a 2:1 twin tension cog belt reduction. The flywheel produces 31.5Kj€™s at maximum RPM but is lethal at around 1 second. The second weapon is also the srimech, this weapon is a low pressure pneumatic flipper running on 10Bar (145psi) running into a single 80mm bore ram. This produces 509kg at the ram and is then transferred into the flipper with a leverage point ratio of 1:1. This is a forward facing flipper like FireStorm and will have no problem toppling the heaviest of robots.
Chassis: 4mm Grade 5 Titanium monocoque with extra 5mm Titanium ribs to give it more rigidity.
Drive: 2 x S28-400 Magmotors @ 36v with a 10:1 Mod 2 spur gear reduction
Batteries: 90 x 3000mAh NiCD cells producing 36v @ 9amp
Color- the robot and skirts and flipper are blue and the disc is yellow
Clearance- it has 0mm at the front due to the wedge it has 0mm at the sides due to skirts its 6mm with out it also has a 0mm at the rear due to the small wedge which is there to replace the problem of the skirt being flipped into the disc. The skirts are NOT hinged and held down by torsion-springs so they shouldn€™t spring up and the rear one shouldn€™t go up into the disc
Notes- The flywheel is at the back off the robot it goes over the back of the wedge so if I can get a robot up the wedge far enough it will be hit by the disc. The skirts stop the robot landing on its side.
Achievements- as disco, 3rd seed in ajwars and undethed challenge belt holder in ajwars extreme 1-4 ajwars 3 8th seed, as disco 4, semi finalist of the lord of the ring tourney, WINNER OF THE LORD OF THE RING TOURNEY

Thank you. Ill wait a little while longer to see if anyone else enters...if not, Im sorry Matty, I cant take you on board.

It is his own fault for not bothering to fulfil his reservation, hence the reason why I use time deadlines not spaces to get rid of the people who reserve entries and not post stats.

See you next week, when I hope to get some fights up.

Could you change the name to Death Adder 3, please, Chris? I dont know why I called it DA4. I will see if I can run into Heart Of Fire with the scoop and send it flying, then attack it with the axe when it comes back down. I will also attack Take Me Out side on with the axe.

Jeez Rich, do you have some sort of grudge aginst me, always attacking me when you get the chance? :proud:

Focus on take me out, Death Adder will be a bitch to attack so ill see if I can run while spinning fast enough to get away. My horrible control wont help though, so well see if I dont tear apart the arena first :proud:

Son of Wedgie vs Black Panther King vs SOR 4.0

Flip whatever is in the way

flip whoever gets in my way

eerr....hit and run i think. mainly an axe job as flipper is going to be pointless, use it only if Im actually under them, dont go trying to get under.
