Robot Wars Championship: July 20 to 21st - Newport Centre

[Team Invade]

Have you got any idea what dates the event in August would be if it goes ahead?

We'll be booking a holiday in August soon-ish and we want to make sure there isn't a clash

[robotwars]

Will know in the next two weeks. Trevor is going for a meeting to work out some logistics.
Then we will set a date, very quickly.

Jonno where do you stay here or has no one booked yet ? I've just noticed the date change so might get rebuild done in time but will be close. Think I will book a hotel anyway, can cancel it later .

[john_frizell]

Will there be 2 feather matches per show, as in Guildford, or is it all heavies?

[robotwars]

We are all booked in to the following hotel, as are some of the other teams.

Premier Inn
Newport Wales (M4, J24)
Coldra Junction
Chepstow Road
NP18 2NX

We will be having feathers, there will be at least one fight per show, I will be working out the show format in the next week or so and annoucing things like, robot seeds, format, judges etc...

Work is now fully underway, and this is looking really good !

Jonno, you missed out the most important bit of information for a Welsh event - Are inflatable sheep weight exempt?

[craig_colliass]

Team Saint are booked in, looking forward to this event hope, to have both heavies going. Cherub has no front armor at the moment but should have something soon, TBH there isn't anything in the front to protect!

Ceri I don't know what sheep have to do with robots anyway......

[robotwars]

ok Ceri, we will make an exception this once !!

[psychostorm]

Yay, don't know what the uproar is mind. They weight very little, do very little & are massive liability to whoever has one on their lid.

Ceri I don't know what sheep have to do with robots anyway......

You do say we should think differently & try different things. So it's a box with an inflatable sheep on top.
