Well, time for another fight. Two veterans, three more spots in Round 2, who will get the next place? One of these two will€¦
SON OF RIPPER 5.0, with its box-no-wheels design, with sloped sides and front wedge. It has a Firestorm-style wedge extender, which on top is a nasty rear-hinged CO2-powered flipping arm that runs across the top and front of the robot. Also it has a rear horizontal Hardox spinning bar. Also invertible, with good armour, and good speed, it should stack up well against€¦
ENTER THE MAY TRACKS, a Comengetorix shape with a bigger wedge than Comengetorix, and 20mph speed. It sports a front flipper with a recycling system, so it has unlimited firepower, and can prevent robots from going right over the top due to sunglasses at the top (sunglasses€¦?). It has 3.25mm hardox armour, and is a tracked robot. However, it is not invertible€¦
Roboteers, stand by€¦
The house robots, thanks to Andy and Frank, are Matilda and Growler.![]()

ACTIVATE!
And so Andy and Frank have decided to take on the house robots before they start on each other! Matilda has started with the disc pointed at the opponents, and is reversing into Enter the May Tracks. EtMT isnt phased by this, and so bores full out on Matilda.
CRASH!
OUCH! Not a wise decision, as EtMT goes flying into a 360 and lands right back into its wheels, the flipper not really damaged, though. SoR goes flying into Matildas side and inverts her. Growler rams SoR from the side, getting under the skirts and clamping down, removing the side skirt. EtMT rushes in and tosses over Growler, from the side also. Now with the house robots out of the way - no? Oh, there goes Matilda OOTA courtesy of SoR!EtMT opens the pit and pushes Growler towards it. SoR turns, and joins EtMT in the pushing of Growler into the pit. Yup, down he goes, straight into the pit of doom! Now that the battle with the house robots IS over, Andy and Franks bots turn and face each other. Then€¦they charge. And SoR goes flying onto the wedge of EtMT and gets launched across the arena. He lands upside-down and uses the arm to right himself, but right on top of EtMT again, who tracked down SoR, and launches him again. SoR bounces off the arena wall and lands right-side-up€¦and EtMT gets under him€¦and bye-bye, Son of Ripper, its OOTA for you!
CEASE!
Son of Ripper 5.0 gets sent out early. Quickly. Literally.![]()
