A special Robot Wars Fan Fiction Anniversary

[kodster]

What's with you and your obsession with 'revenge' anyway? :P

Even grudge matches themselves were sport, yet you take it so seriously...

[eene]

Martijn, Kody, I need your tactics for the heat final by tonight

[corsair_lightning]

I don't know... Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I've never won a match?

[kodster]

I gave my tactics already, Elliot...

[eene]

I know, Kody

Tactics time is over, so the fight will be up later

[eene]

Welcome back!

HEAT FINAL

From Toronto, in Canada, Macduff the 4th!

From Hereford, in Herefordshire, the number 3 seeds, X-Terminator!

Roboteers, stand by!

B1: Macduff the 4th
B2: X-Terminator
House Robots: Matilda and Growler

3-2-1: Activate!

Macduff the 4th has the flipper for this fight, and if it can get under the ground clearance at the back of X-Terminator, then the number 3 seeds would certainly be out. X-Terminator is slow, but it has that disc. In comes Macduff the 4th, from the side. Under it goes and FLIPS! And X-Terminator, as most of us predicted, over it goes! The disc drags it along the arena floor, but no furthur as it crashes into an arena wall! What an attack by Macduff the 4th! They push X-Terminator away, towards the CPZ! In comes Growler, his jaws opened wide! Macduff the 4th backs away and wisely so! X-Terminator...well, what can they do. They can self-right on their sides, but not like this, I don't think. Growler grabs it and takes it over the flame pit! Leaving it there. Refbot has a look as Macduff the 4th comes in again and FLIPS X-Terminator once more. OH! And X-Terminator right way up again, but stuck on the wall! They were in a similar position in their first round fight, but got away. Can they do it here? I don't think so. Macduff the 4th waits its moment. If they leave X-Terminator, they'll be counted out. And I think thats whats going to happen. Macduff the 4th, laying off. Sportsmanship, a good thing to see as X-Terminator is counted out!
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10!
Macduff the 4th spins around in victory! They go through to the grand final. A turn up for the books! X-Terminator, number 3 seeds, and heading out. Matilda comes in! Her flywheel hits X-Terminator! The impact knocks X-Terminator off the wall! Growler comes in and gets his teeth into the side skirts. Dragging X-Terminator away to the pit! Refbot presses the button and Growler waits for the right moment...now! Down goes X-Terminator. Out of the competition.

Cease!

X-Terminator exterminated! The number 3 seeds go out!
Macduff the 4th go through to the grand final!

Join us next time, for Heat C!

Sorry if the fight was a bit short. I followed the rules this time, I'm sure I did. Tell me if I didn't

[kodster]

A one-hit KO. Nice. Well since that said all about the fight, there's no need for me to nit-pick the length of it. Good job Elliot.

Tactics for Heat C by tonight, guys

[steven_mcg]

Ooh, yay! My first trophy in a long while! Thanking you, Elliot!

HEAT C
ROUND 1
1. CroOkEd eVo VS Firestorm 5
Firestorm to fling its way to victory.

2. Pickaxe of Doom VS TRAFFIC WARDEN
This is the draw I was hoping for - a slow, boxy bot with poor traction. Checking its dimensions, Pickaxe of Doom should easily fit inside my crusher, so attack from the sides to avoid the axe, scoop it up, clamp it hard and dump it in the Pit ASAP.

[team_orr]

well...

1: CrOoKeD: get firestorm from behind, then a: flip oota, b: into a hazard/cpz or c: push down pit

2: pickaxe-of-doom: oh arse :P well i might course a shock...:P urm, try to get it from behind, avoid crusher :P and axe like there is no tomorrow...which, having seen the opponent might be a possibility :P
