3...2...1...
ACTIVATE!

Breaker Box and Pussycat are the first to leap into action; the Cat makes a beeline for Sump Thing, while the Box causes a head-on collision with Granny's Revenge! Granny stays upright but only just. In fact, she barely has time to pop her teeth back in when the Mousetrap tries to trundle under her scooter. Granny swerves violently away and turns to rejoin the fray...just as Redrum comes storming into view.
CRRRASH!
Granny's fallen, and she can't get up! The scooter isn't looking too good either, especially once Redrum comes in to slice away at the underbelly. Poor Granny's ride is becoming a wreck and Refbot's barely started the countdown yet!
1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9...10!
Never mind, Granny, dear. Shunt will help you up...straight onto the Flame Pit, it seems. Oh dear. At least Granny won't have to worry about her heating bills this winter.
As Redrum lets the House Robot take over, Mr Mystic turns his attention to Sump Thing. It and Pussycat have been going at it like cats and junkyard dogs, trying to outmanoeuvre each other. Sump Thing is doing well to keep up with the kitty, but Pussycat's blade is proving too powerful to stop bits and pieces being chipped from its scrapheap of a shell.
CRRRASH!
At least it was until Redrum and Breaker Box roll into town! Redrum slaps one of Sump Thing's wheels, flicking almost the entire bot off the ground, while Breaker Box thunders into Pussycat and sends the former RW Finalist tumbling away from the fray. Alex V quickly rights the kitty, but not before the Mousetrap sneaks over and nearly snags the 'Cat completely with its guillotine.
Which is better for catching mice - pussycats or mousetraps? There's only one way to settle this...
FIIIIIIGHT!
CRRRASH!
Oh 'eck, forget that! Sump Thing is still being ganged up on by Redrum and Breaker Box, with the Box hitting the Thing at full pelt and smashing it into the southern wall with the force of a steam train! Sump Thing is naturally quite confused, but only manages a glancing blow with the axe before Breaker Box starts shoving it again, this time towards Growler's CPZ. The Hound of the House Robots opens its jaws wide as Sump Thing is cornered completely and bites down on one of the spherical wheels. Best get out of there soon, Nick. Growler eats bots like you for breakfast - literally!
Breaker Box isn't full, however, as it presses the Pit Release before rocketing back to the others for more. It finds Pussycat and Mousetrap still at each other's throats, but is intercepted by Redrum before it can join the fray.
CRRRASH!
The sparks fly - and so does Redrum for a moment - but Breaker Box stays strong and hammers the spinning machine into the nearest wall for good measure! Alex Mac enjoys it so much, in fact, that he decides to keep on doing it again and again. Unoriginal, maybe, but effective.
Meanwhile, Sump Thing has finally slithered out of Growler's grasp and hobbles somewhat back to the arena centre, where Pussycat and Mousetrap's duel continues. Pussycat has proven too nimble for Martijn to effectively catch and Alex V has already put some nasty cuts in the Mousetrap's sides. The arrival of Sump Thing changes things up a bit, though, as Nick catches the 'Cat side-on and shoves the RW All-Star up the Mousetrap's wedge. Marti snaps the 'trap and the 'Cat is caught! Alex V isn't going down without a fight, however. Pussycat wriggles and writhes under the guillotine and - is that splinters I see flying about? Maybe an office table wasn't the best protection for a 3500rpm saw blade, no?
Mousetrap dumps Pussycat into Shunt's CPZ, but he's still busy showing Granny a bad time (Did you know mobility scooters were made of biscuits and tinfoil? They are if you're a House Robot). In spite of Marti's best efforts, Pussycat tumbles out of the guillotine's grasp and runs away to nibble at Sump Thing's wheels for revenge. Marti joins them soon after, just before Shunt decides to take Mousetrap on instead.
CRRRASH!
And there goes Redrum into another wall. Alex Mac seems to know how nasty that drum is and isn't letting an opportunity to keep it stopped go to waste. Breaker Box smacks its fellow American against the fence until Mr Mystic spies an opening and darts out of the Box's way. Redrum rejoins the Brits, who appear to be in a total free-for-all in the middle of the warzone. Mousetrap is trying to grab Pussycat, Pussycat is slashing Sump Thing...
CRRRASH!
And Sump Thing is getting battered by Redrum again. A second, less powerful blow knocks the entire robot aside, as Breaker Box rockets over and 'breaks' up the whole melee (Har. Har.). Alex Mac spins around for another charge and manages to smack the slower Mousetrap across its wooden face. It would have gone for Sump Thing, but the living scrapheap barely appears to be moving at all. It looks as though all that damage has finally taken its toll.
Not about to let Redrum get another KO, Breaker Box slips speedily under Mousetrap's side and topples the 'Trap with one swift lift of the scoop! Marti tries to self-right, but the guillotine simply doesn't have the guile. Refbot analyses the situation as Breaker Box speeds off to rejoin the others. Sump Thing may have fallen first, but they're both getting the count-out now.
1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9...10!
Aaaand Granny's just lost her head. Couldn't leave her alone, could you, Shunt? Young bulldozers today have no respect for their elders!
Speaking of youthful rebellion, it seems as though our angry young Americans are teaming up on the more experienced Brit! Redrum has already landing a couple of strong blows on Pussycat in the last few moments and now Breaker Box has slammed the RW Finalist right the way across the arena head-first into a wall! The 'Cat lands on its feet and dodges another ram, before turning its attention back to Redrum. Both are light on their wheels, but Redrum's unbalancing act gives Pussycat the upper paw. Alex V focuses his attention Redrum's sides and manages to carve a few good slices in with the saw; that is until Breaker Box arrives back on the scene.
CRRRASH!
Both bots get flung aside in the collision, but it's Pussycat that Alex Mac has his eyes set on now. Breaker Box clips the 'Cat as it scrambles to get out of the way and turns in time to force the feline face-first into the fence, just shy of the Pit Release! Pussycat is toppled onto its side and desperately tries to self-right, but Breaker Box is already back on its tail. Alex Mac pours on the power and, with one shove, sends Pussycat sliding into the Pit like an air hockey puck! So much for nine lives, eh?
Thus only the Americans remain. Redrum's barrel is already at top velocity as Breaker Box rockets over, but once again Mr Mystic is finding it hard to outmanoeuvre his foe. Breaker Box slides under Redrum's side and slams the spinner into the southwest CPZ! Mr Mystic gasps as Redrum bounces away. He seemed convinced he was going straight over the fence!
Alex Mac, though, apparently has other plans. Redrum is barely out of the CPZ when Breaker Box is back on its, well, back and shoves it into the Pit Release. You know, pressing the Button again won't make the Pit go any deeper, Mr MacWilliams. Alex doesn't seem to need it anyway - a couple of fancy twirls, a gentle tip of the scoop, one particularly powerful ram and Redrum is down the hole right alongside Pussycat! Do you know what "nwod dna tuo" is backwards, boys and girls?

CEASE!

BREAKER BOX GOES THROUGH TO THE FINAL!

As usual, tactics in just whenever you can. Apologies if some of them weren't followed too accurately last time. That was my first time writing battles in nearly a year, especially a fight of that size. It was tricky stuff keeping track of everything, even with notes and annotations. Maybe I'm just getting on in my old age.

Hey ho. Five to go.

Thank you.
