War of the Weapons

This is a small tournament starting soon, I need 6 people to enter 6 vapourbots, the format is as such:

6 x 6 robot melees - 2 go through from each, Robots remaining: 12
4 x 3 robot melees - 1 goes through from each
2 x 2 robot melees - 1 goes through from each
1 x Play-off
1 x Final

The twist in this tournament is the fact that all of the first round melees are weapon specific, the include the following matches:

Axe Assualt (Axes & Hammers)
Crusher Chaos (Crushers)
Flipper Face-Off (Flippers & Lifters)
Full body Free-For-All (Full body and Ring spinners, Full body drums and Melty Brain Spinners)
Spinner Skirmish (Spinning Discs, Bars & Drums)
Rammer Ruckus (Rammers)

Weight Limits:


Wheels: 100kg
Tracks: 120kg
Shufflers: 150kg
True Walkers: 200kg


Arena is the RW7 arena

I Declare these signups OPEN!!!

Weapon specific, eh?

I'll enter with:

and two/three other things.

Post stats at some point :proud:

Im in :P

Smashy Smashy (Axebot)
Weight: 100kg
Shape: Simply, a box with 2 wedges at the front: one on the left, and one on the right. There is 20cm of width in between the 2 wedges for the meat tenderizer to come down, like Wedge of Doom
Colour: Black.
Dimensions:90cm x 70cm x 20cm
Drive: 4x 24v S28-400 Magmotors, powered by 3x 3000mAh NiCad Battlepacks.
Locomotion: 6 externally mounted solid rubber wheels with aluminum boron carbide hubs.
Armour: 5mm titanium, except the front wedge which is 8mm titanium,
Speed: 16mph
Ground Clearance: 0mm at front, and 5mm at sides and back.
Turning Circle: 0m
Weapons: A powerful axe, with a 4kg hardox meat tenderizer for an axehead. The tenderizer's blades are diamond tipped, and it can hit an opponent and do damage when the axe springs back to its rested position, like Terrorhurtz. The axe itself is powered by a 2.2kg 750psi Co2 tank feeding gas to a 90mm bore 400mm stroke ram which pushes the axe forward, giving near 600kgs of force.
Srimech: The axe self-rights the robot. If it gets stuck on its side, repeatedly firing the axe will cause it to land on its back or right way up.
Strengths: Powerful axe. Also very maneuverable.
Weaknesses: Exposed wheels and average armor.
Bio: Once a Team Corsair machine, Always a Team Corsair machine. Just because the big, bad machine using a 4kg tenderizer as an axe isn't Mark's doesn't mean it's any less lethal though...
Win/Loss Ratio: N/A

Crusher/ I will get one done ASAP

The Servant (Flipper)
Weight: 100kg
Shape: Mute (S7)
Colour: Blood Red
Dimensions: 67cm x 96cm x 26cm
Drive: 4x 24v S28-400 Magmotors powered by 5x NiCad Battlepacks
Locomotion: 4 Mute-style wheels.
Armour: 5mm titanium
Speed: 15mph
Ground Clearance: 0mm at front, 5mm elsewhere.
Turning Circle: 0m
Weapon: A full-pressure rear-hinged Co2 flipper(looks a lot like Chaos 2's) powered by a fire extinguisher using a 70mm bore 100mm stroke ram. It can flip 500kg.
Srimech: Flipper
Strengths: Very fast.
Weaknesses: Untested in battle
Bio: Essentially an updated Mute, Team Blood Mages' Servant is prepared to do some damage.
Win/Loss Ratio: 3/5

Full Body Spinner. Will get one done

Sauron (Spinner)
Weight: 80-100kg, depending on the setup used.
Shape: The robot without any setup on it is shaped like Tornado, back when they didn't have the interchangeable weapons.
Colour: Black, with a picture of The One Ring on top.
Dimensions: 85cm x 75cm x 25cm
Drive: 4x S28-400 Magmotors, powered by 3x 25.9v 5000mAh LiPo battery packs.
Locomotion: 4 Goodyear go-kart wheels.
Armour: 4mm titanium
Speed: 15mph
Ground Clearance: 0mm at sides and back due to skirts. 5mm without skirts. The front ground clearance varies with the setups, but unless otherwise noted is 5mm.
Turning Circle: 0m
Weapon:A 20kg hardox spinning bar on top of the robot, powered by a 25.9v S28-400 Magmotor at 4000rpm. It puts out 156kj. Another skirt is added to the front of the robot. 0mm ground clearance at the front.
Srimech: Spinning bar can self right it like Tornado Mer
Strengths: Good Weapon
Weaknesses: Untested
Win/Loss Ratio: N/A





Merry Hampton Evo (rammer)
Weight: 100kg
Shape: A box on wheels ala Tornado.
Colour: Yellow and Green all over

Drive: 4x 24v S28-400 Magmotors, powered by 5x 3000mAh NiCad Battlepacks.
Locomotion: 4 foam-filled Goodyear go-kart wheels with aluminum hubs.
Armour: 6.5mm titanium
Speed: 17 mph
Ground Clearance: 0mm at front, 9mm elsewhere.
Turning Circle: 0m
Weapon: 2 3mm thick hardox Tornado like scoops, 1 mounted at the front and another inverted at the back
Srimech: Invertible.
Strengths: Ram from all directions
Weaknesses: None as of yet
Bio: Merry Hampton Evo now has 2 scoops and is faster.
Win/Loss Ratio: N/A

Hope this is good enough :P

Lian...

Dimensions:90cm x 70cm x 20cm
Weapons: A powerful axe, with a 4kg hardox meat tenderizer for an axehead. The tenderizer's blades are diamond tipped, and it can hit an opponent and do damage when the axe springs back to its rested position, like Terrorhurtz. The axe itself is powered by a 2.2kg 750psi Co2 tank feeding gas to a 90mm bore 400mm stroke ram which pushes the axe forward, giving near 600kgs of force.

This does not compute. :P

It's 90mm bore so will fit in horizontally and even at an angle, ram's don't always have to be vertical.

If I may I would like to reserve for a moment, a few of my robots need a slight refreshing, but I should have my stats in by tommorrow at the latest, I'll most probably get them in later tonight :)

EDIT: Are rammers with weapons acceptable? e.g. a rammer with a lifting arm

@ Lewis: Rammers with lifters will fit under the Flipper/Lifter category

I'll have a go at this :) all my stats can be found on the ZED forum, I believe it's on my profile but if not it's where Lewis' stats are so I'm sure you can find it easily :P

AXE ASSAULT: Quaestor III (if the flipper disqualifies that, throw in the old Quaestor)
CRUSHER CHAOS: Nidhogg (to the power of three) (if the forks disqualify that...er...)
FLIPPER FACE OFF: Gabriel V
FULL BODY FREE FOR ALL: No Consequences (if the lifter disqualifies that...um...don't know :P)
SPINNER SKIRMISH: Eye of Ran II
RAMMER RUCKUS: STAT

Sorry Joey, Nidhogg & No Consequences aren't allowed, same to everybody else, only 1 active weapon

One active weapon? Boooooo :lame:

Replace Killobite Sigma with Super Gore Septua then...Super Gore only has the claws. :P

I just think that this is fairer.

And if one more person complains about this, I will not be happy!

Axe ~ V for Vendetta
Crusher ~ Compression
Flipper ~ Thunder2torm
Spinner ~ Skull
Rammer ~ Armageddon [stats pending]
Full Body Spinner ~ Psycho [stats pending]

Are we allowed realies or vapourbots with one of the weapons disabled to qualify for the 'only one weapon' rule? I don't entirely think it's fair on those of us who have combinations of weapons (I don't have any pure crushers or pure FBSes, for example, and never have had any)

Ok, i'll be a bit more lenient, the main weapon is what qualifies it for a certain battle.

Sorry :lol:

oooh sorry about that

ian plz :)

also didnt get a chance to make some stats soooo i guess il have to go with realies, tiberius and typhoon 2 svp
