Rebel Robots

[john]

how many times can a robot be flipped out before the fight is over? if its til 3 mins of actual fighting has taken place the robots may be out the arena for longer then the fight lol

[Gaseraki]

So I gain a point for every time I ram a robot against a wall. While flipping OOTA doesnt mean you win the match, just get a point.
Dam I wish I could enter trojan into this comp. I would actually feel confident!

Craig I take it that knocking an opponent out ie disabling them counts as an automatic win?

Stupid question but I dont normally go for the softly push an opponent around approach with hornet

[craig_anto]

Correct Marco cant you make it for just the saturday?

yea Gary you kill em you win simple as that

There is not pit its a plain arena

LJ there is no limit to the amount of oota per fight althou i think like in boxing if the oppenent isnt giving a good resistance aka not fighting back then the fight will be stopped

[dmac]

Couldnt imagine a scenario where you could softly push an opponent around with Hornet

[RogueTwoRobots]

A different format certainly, but an interesting way to mix it up. Its got the potential for some very tactical battles to unfold, so should be enjoyable.

Considering that, I think a 4WD robot with a lifter has potential to do well, so Ill gonna enter Kaizer Mk3 alongside Drumroll
Got the chassis materials ordered, should hopefully fly together easily over Christmas.

Just out of interest, what is the size of the inner red square?

[craig_anto]

the arena inside is 7m by 7m line is a 4m by 4m square plenty of room

[psycho_fling]

what happens if you push someone over the line but in doing so go over the line yourself is that a point for your opponenet? i might have missed this point sorry if i have overlooked it

[craig_anto]

the point is the force
you can cross the line so long as you push someone else over the line youll get a point if you cross the line without being hit or just by bad driving then you dont get a point

if 2 robots clash together and both spin off and cross the line both will receive a point eg, a spinner vs a brick the impact sends both robots shooting off across the arena

We talking about Gary again..
