The Fowler Fic War Series 5

[matty_haka]

Welcome to the 1st round 1 battle in Heat 5 of FFW5, and today we have 3 more robots that I can€™t be bothered to introduce other than their histories, all vying to get through to the next stage.

First in, and seeded number 9, Wedginator 5.0

In FFW3 - Did Not Enter
In FFW4 - Knocked out A Large Red Bus Drove My Love Away in round 1, before disposing of both Wheely Big Cheese and Salamander in less than a minute combined. Knocked out Cosmic Thunder 2 in Round 4, before eventually going out to previous champion Achilles in round 5.

Points

FFW3- 0
FFW4- 10
Total - 10


Next into the arena is A Night At The Bar

In FFW3 - Was knocked out in superb fashion in round 1 by a marvellously driven Tough As Nails
In FFW4 - Teamed up with reigning champion Wedga Revo to dispose of Raging Knightmare in round 1, but lost in round 2 to Black Panther who box rushed him into submission.

Points

FFW3- 1/2 = 0.5
FFW4- 2 = 2
Total - 2.5


And finally, all the way from America, PUMP

In FFW3 - Did Not Enter
In FFW4 - Did Not Enter


Let€™s cross over to the arena!

Straight from the off both A Night At The Bar and PUMP€™s weapons start flailing into a mini whirling dervish, with the speed behind A Night At The Bars€™ weapon immediately appearing to levitate him slightly off the floor into a balanced cylindrical position. Wedginator 5.0 immediately drifts towards PUMP and comes straight at the bar with the flipper, trying to wedge rush him in order to stop the bar, but the impact between the low bar and the flipper is just a bending in the bottom corner of the tetrahedrical shape. It has had the desired effect of stopping the bar though, and it allows Wedginator 5.0 to slide underneath again and he drives him towards the wall, firing the flipper, but he doesn€™t time the flip right, and although PUMP is thrown over, he goes over off the side of the flipper, and moves away spinning the weapon up, now from its highest point.

A Night At the Bar begins to feel left out at this point, and moves slowly but elegantly across the arena and comes straight after Wedginator 5.0 with the weapon going at full speed, slamming into the polycarbonate shell which suddenly has a large crack appear in it. Another attack later on the same spot and another crack seems to tear a corner straight off leaving a huge portion of the area where the wheel is exposed. PUMP has also recovered at this point and comes in with the now up to speed bar at the same area that Martijn had just attacked. Wedginator sees the attack coming though, and immediately turns around, trapping PUMP on the wedge, from where he flips him once more, sending him the right way up again. A Night At The Bar has been pretended with the same side as before from this attack though and slams in again leaving a massive gash in the side panel from which gas immediately starts pouring meaning one of the 3 CO2 tanks has evidently been caught by the strength of the attack.

With gas pouring out from all angles, Wedginator 5.0 turns around to try and work out what to do next and turns around to face A Night At The Bar, repeating his manoeuvre that he performed against PUMP, slamming into him with the flipper, which buckles slightly before, sliding under the stopped bar and flipping him, while the bar is trying to get up to speed. A Night At The Bar falls to the ground and goes, like in Martijns description, like a rocking chair on steroids, bouncing all around the floor, before eventually settling having carved a couple of lumps out of the floor. In this time though PUMP has come over with his bar, and aimed an attack at the already exposed internal section of Wedginator 5.0 and getting the bar stuck in, not only cracking the area of polycarbonate even more, but also hitting one of the tyres with the bar. Immediately the damage from that attack shows, as Wedginator immediately starts hobbling, with the wheel evidently punctured. He soon stops moving in any more than a limping circle as the levels change and the tyre deflates completely.

CEASE

Wedginator 5.0 has his wedge in pieces. A Night At The Bar and PUMP go through.

Drilla Killa and SoR to meet in the Heat Final.

[joey_picus]

SoR through, the second match might actually be close but Ill go with the inevitable flow and say Drilla Killa.

SOR 5.5 vs. A Night At The Bar

Let A Night At The Bar kill itself off?

If it does work, then I shall be focusing on the wheels. If I can rip some of the rubber off the wheels then it should loose that all important balance and... well... kill itself off?

[matty_haka]

Welcome to the first written fight of Fowler Fic War Series 5 for a long time, where today we see our first second round battle between PUMP and Drilla Killa 7

Activate!

Drilla Killa comes straight out and immediately charges at the bar of PUMP to try and prevent it getting up to speed. PUMP turns around in an attempt to stop it slowing down the disc but in doing so allows Drilla Killa 7 to get underneath him with the rear wedge, from where he immediately shunts him into one of the side wall angle grinders causing metal to meet metal and sending PUMP flying away in a shower of sparks, albeit with the knowledge that hes taken out the capability of one of the angle grinders.

Drilla Killa 7 refuses to hold off though and has turned around to slam into PUMP before the American machine has even stopped spinning around from the force of the shunt. Drilla Killa 7 gets underneath him once more with the wedge only this time pops the drill out of whole causing sparks, though not much more and lifting PUMP up so the slowly spinning blade slams into the wooden floor, jamming into it and lifting a few splinters up.

Drilla Killa 7 backs off giving both machines a chance to regroup however it immediately becomes clear that PUMP has got himself stuck on the arena floor. Drilla Killa 7 nudges him and theres a vast amount of wheelspin but no purchase. Drilla Killa 7 then comes around to the bar side as its not spinning and shunts him from that side, sending both machines ofer the now splintered part of the arena which looks an absolute mess. PUMP backs off to try and get the bar up to speed only to realise that the bar is no longer working. It later transpires that the splinters caused by the impact jammed into the mechanics of the bar preventing it from spinning.

Drilla Killa 7 realises that with no weapon to worry about and up against a robot with no pushing power of any great note that the fight is now his. PUMP seem to realise that too as they slump in the control booths waiting for their destiny. Drilla Killa 7 slams straight under the bar and gets the wedge underneath slamming them into the pit release button and nearly out of the arena the impact was that hard. PUMP just stays in though having landed just behind Drilla Killa 7 who immediately uses the back to start shunting them towards the sirening descending pit. PUMP try to back away at the last second but its too little too late as theyre not quick enough and Drilla Killa 7 sends PUMP down to the bottom of the pit of oblivion.

CEASE

PUMP ends up leaving all deflated... Drilla Killa 7 is through to the heat final.
