The K-TOAD tournament

I know that Timmy proberbly doesnt deserve a fair fight after what hes done, but Ive found the stats for D-J in a thread called help with vapour
- I just needed to say that.

NAME- D-J (Disc-tructive Jockey)
SHAPE- The shape is essentially the same a Shredder, except it is longer to fit in the extra set of wheels D-J has.
COLOUR- *add this your self tim*
WEIGHT- 100kg
SPEED- 18mph
TURNING CIRCLE- 0mm due to tornado style skid steer system
GROUND CLEARANCE- under the discs at the front is 15mm ground clearance, under the actual body at the front and the rest of the way round is 8mm. *if you wish add skirts to the sides and rear to make it 0mm*
ARMOUR- 5mm titanium
WHEELS- the robot has 8 wheels, although it only runs on for, it is set up in the same way as Big Nipper
POWER- 2 X 24 volt mag motors
WEAPONS- The robot has two discs, which are horizontal. The discs are horizontally next to each other, much like on Shredder. The discs spin in opposite directions inwards, i.e the one on the left spins clockwise and the one on the right spins anti clockwise, like on Shredder, it does more damage this way. It is powered on 36volt mag-motors spinning the discs at 3000rpm, it takes about 5seconds to spin them up to speed
SRIMECH- the robot is invertible
STRENGTHS- *find some*
WEAKNESSES- *find some*

Bugger :sad:

I wish people would actually post links to where their stats are hiding

I know that Tim proberbly doesnt deserve to win anyway, but Im just saying this because the winner of Nitro-Genes battle against Die-Ceratops (Nitro-Gene is one of my robots) has to face the winner of the Drillia KIlla vs. D-J battle. If I win, Id rather face D-J than Drilla Killa.

Wouldnt you rather face Woody?

The Killer Toad Tournament

Round 1, Fight 4, Attempt 2

Drilla Killa 7 vs. D-J

Drilla Killa 7 is a box with twin wedges, but the rear wedge is upside down and only comes into play when it gets flipped over, the weapons are a pair of drills, one at either end of the robot, so the drill bit can come out and drill into other machines when they are on the wedge. It has 6 wheels, and the armour is Hardox. Will Drilla Killa drill to victory?

D-J is entered by Tim, and it is essentially a Shredder clone, but with 8 wheels, but set up in a similar fashion to Big Nipper, so 4 on top, 4 on bottom, it has titanium armour, and looks deadly if it catches you with the spinning discs, however it has high ground clearance, but will D-J spin to victory?

Both Roboteers are in the booths, ready to fight

D-J comes out of the traps first, spinning its discs up to speed; Drilla Killa is 2nd out of the traps, as both machines are moving in together slowly, DJ has got the slight speed advantage by 1 mph, as Drilla Killa moves in, as both machines meet head on, some sparks fly from the front wedge of Drilla Killa as it gets underneath the front end of DJ, and starts pushing back, when drilling, as sparks fly from the titanium underbelly, as DJ is slammed into the pit release button, as Drilla Killa drives away from DJ, to line up another attack.

DJ comes onto the attack, getting away from the pit area, as the discs are up to speed, Drilla Killa spins, so that again, both front ends meet up, as for the 2nd time of the battle sparks fly from the front wedge of Drilla Killa as it puts on power to get underneath DJ, lifting the front pair of wheels off the ground, as sparks come from the under-side, as DJ is getting pushed backwards, back towards the pit, as Drilla Killa wants an early end, slamming into reverse to get rid of DJ from the wedge, and down into the pit.

Cease

Drilla Killa drills a couple holes in the underbelly of DJ, and drops it into a rather big hole, and moves onto round 2.

Next fight:
Disco-Tech 2 vs. BIACS-LE

So me giving you the stats for D-J made no difference

Im glad.

Enjoyed both my robots fights there, Dave! Maybe we could call the one with Woody a demo.

The Killer Toad Tournament, Round 1, Fight 5

Disco-Tech 2 vs. BIACS-LE

Right, it is time for fight 5,

The first robot into the arena today is Disco-Tech 2, entered by Martyn; it is a box with 6 wheels, with a disc at the front and a disc at the rear, which appear to be powered by the same motor using a belt drive, it can run upside down and has Hardox for armour, the sides are protected with skirts, and it has a decent speed of 9 meters per second, so will Disco Tech be spinning to the disco beat tonight?

The 2nd machine into the arena today is the very strange BIACS-LE, which itâ‚¬â„¢s 2 wheels with a floating disc unit in the middle with a cage at the rear, whatâ‚¬â„¢s strange is that there is no chassis, everything it held together with the armour plus supports, the disc is vertically mounted and powered by a motor buried in the armour supports, and weighs 25 kg, which could hurt if it hits you. 2 arms either side of the floating unit protect the disc from slamming onto the ground. Will the bull in a china shop smash its way to victory?

Iâ‚¬â„¢m using the stats, as found on http://www.vapourbots.crystalnode.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=21http://www.vapourbots.crystalnode.ne...c.php?f=6&t=21, with thanks to AJ to pointing me in the right direction

*Puts on Harry Hill style voice*

They are only one way to find outâ‚¬Â¦

FIGHT!!!

Both robots donâ‚¬â„¢t move at the start of the starting whistle, as both machineâ‚¬â„¢s disc weapons start to spin up to speed before Disco-Tech getting away first and moving in towards Biacs, Matt starts to roll Biacs towards Disco, Martyn flicks on the controls and drives away from Biacs, before spinning around, Matt changes direction to face Disco, as Martyn starts to move in, putting on full power, heading straight towards Biacs, in an attempt to knock out that dangerous weapon, and taking out one of the 2 discs on his machine.

Both machines come together, as Disco goes flying away from Biacs, as Matt puts on full power to get to Disco as it lands, another slam on the front sending Disco into roll, as Biacs comes straight onto another attack, slamming into Disco-Tech at full power, as a piece of the base-plate remains on the ground, the bolts have come away from the chassis, as Disco puts on full power and drives away from Biacs to recover and consider the options, as it is upside down, with no top armour, and both discs bent, Matt only needs a moment and he is right on top of Disco again, as Martyn dodges the attack, as Biacs turns and comes right back onto the attack, sensing the kill soon against the weaponless Disco.

Martyn keeps on running away from Biacs, trying to get around the rear of the machine to catch out the floating cage, as Matt continues chasing Disco-Tech, Biacs slams into the side of Disco as it loses control taking a corner at speed, slamming it into the arena wall, the side skirt flies off, as Disco-Tech lies up against the side wall, the wheels are spinning but there is nobody at home, as Matt pulls back to allow the Ref to count out Disco, not wanting to cause any major damage to the exposed insides of Disco, being a sportsman.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and there goes the red card, as Disco-Tech 2 is counted out.

Cease

Biacs-le wins against Disco-Tech by technical knock-out

The next â‚¬Å“fightâ‚¬Â will be Death Threat 0.1 against the tournament favourite and the worldâ‚¬â„¢s greatest ultimate vapourbot, Boxy.

**pcbore** · 17th February 2008, 07:06

I predict Boxy all the way here. Sorry Danny, but Death Threat cant compete at this level of competition

17th February 2008, 16:00

The Killer Toad Tournament

Round 1, Fight 6

Death Threat vs. Boxy

The first machine to enter the arena today is Death Threat, it is a tracked machine with a front wedge and some deadly looking crushing arms at the front, skirts protect the rear of the machine, however its top speed is only 10 mph and with exposed tracks on the top, it could get de-track-ed, with any luck Danny hopes his machine wonâ‚¬â„¢t fly out of the arena in less than 10 seconds like it did in series 2 when it came up against Nitro-Gene.

The 2nd machine into the arena today is Boxy, it is a 3 wheel drive box, made of cardboard glued onto a wooden chassis, with an office chair in the middle, and it has a silly face for a weapon, and hopes to make other robots laugh themselves so it can attack. However it has no self-righter and has a high ground clearance.

Both machines are ready

And Boxy is away first, rolling towards Death Threat which slams into the front end of Boxy, bringing the crushing arms into play, as the armour gives up being armour and turns into cardboard and rips away from the chassis, as Death Threat is pushing Boxy backwards, slamming it into the arena wall, as the entire armour comes away.

Death Threat drops the armour and comes back onto another attack, crushing into the wooden chassis like it was made of wood, crushing into the front wheelchair motor, can Boxy do anything? Danny pushes Boxy back into the pit release button, opening the pit, turning, and starts to push Boxy towards the pit, as it falls down the large hole, Death Threat spins around.

Cease

Death Threat causes an upset and beats Boxy and moves onto round 2.

The next battle will be
Wedgas Revenge vs. GBOD
