Exactly we all do dodgy puns some time anyway get on with the great fights.

[kodster]

I will, just have patience.

Christopher Mason, any tactics for Octo-Push since you havent given out tactics for your other bots? :wink:

[dogbot4000]

No didnt mean to sound rude or anything.

[dinowarrior]

Not really. Just hit it around with the drum. From what Ive heard, I should (hopefully) be able to out-manouver it.

[leorcc]

Cool, im busy working on my robots all week and when i log in i find that im winning.

Go Go Puzzel!

[kodster]

Will get it done tomorrow.

Sure, Tony.

Thanks for the help, Tony.

Now then, lets complete the eliminators.

Octo-push 3 vs. Walk Away

Octo-push 3 is another wedge, but more boxy than others. Its wedge is HUGE, and its got 6WD with wheel protectors, just like Minion. Unlike Minion, however, is the sea-coloured area surrounding a massive rear spinning drum @ 1000rpm. The armour is 3mm steel. Christopher says it would need a miracle to overturn his bot, but if it is flipped, its toast.

Walk Away has been modified to make the 200kg mark, since hes a walking SHW. Hes a FBS-shaped bot, but its not an FBS. Its a ring spinner with a 360 degree plow/skirt-type thing surrounding the bottom. The ring weighs 45kg and sports sharp teeth for cutting away at anything and everything. Also, it has a gimmick that allows it to have a 0 ground clearance. However its got no srimech either. Sports 1.5cm hardox armour, so hes incredibly tough.

Roboteers, stand by...

Booth 1: Christopher Mason
Booth 2: Anthony Politzi

ACTIVATE!

Its Octo-push with the wedge assault on Walk Away, who is NOT moving at all, but getting the spinning ring spinning. So Chris turns his SHW around and attacks with the drum. All of a sudden, Walk Away springs to life, and the bot raises up and moves in the opposite direction. But its not that fast, and sooner or later...
CRASH!!!
Oh boy, who came off worse in THAT hit?! Id say it was Octo-push, as he has been sent sprawling by that hit! Walk Away hasnt been moved that much at all, and the ring is spinning again! Octo-push comes forward with the wedge again, but Walk Away immediately dips down and Octo-push hits the plow...and the wedge hits the ring!
CRASH!!!
And Octo-push feels the hurt badly: the side of his wedge is gnashed right open! Not only that, its spun him around, too! But Walk Aways ring is not spinning now, and Octo-push hurriedly buries the drum in.
CRASH!!!
Walk Away isnt moved at all, and thats probably worse! Great pieces of armour have been completely ripped off of the plow! Walk Away gets up and pushes Octo-push, but the latter responds with a shove of his own, and theyre locked together now, drum-to-ring, and suddenly Walk Away seperates from Octo-push and spins up his ring again. Octo-push turns around to get the wedge under...and finds that Walk Away has played dead again, except for the spinning ring. Octo-push again turns and buries the somewhat damaged drum into the spinning ring.
CRASH!!!
Alert! Flying metal parts! The drum on Octo-push has just been totaled, pieces flying everywhere, and I think that about does it for Octo-push, for they are immobilized on their wheels! Something else internally has broken indeed, and heres Walk Away coming in on the side for an attacking blow!
CRASH!!!
The wheel protectors are mangled, and chewed right up! If Octo-pushs movement wasnt hindered before, it sure is now.

CEASE!

And that about ends it. Walk Away is the winner of the fight.

Octo-push 3 is pushed aside in scattered bits.
Walk Away walks into the Superheavyweight Final!
