Sign-up Information

You may only compete in the tournament if you have competed in three or less RP tournament in the past of 8/4/17 (if you are planing on competing in more tournaments in the future they will not be counted).

The event will start July the 1st.

There will be one weight class, Heavyweight, and it will be limited to 16 entries. Robots will be assigned 30 points to be divided among the following categories as to the desires of the builder:

Speed
Traction
Torque
Weapon
Armor

Matches will be series 8/9 robot wars style: two four-way melees where two robots go through, followed by a group stage where the two highest scoring bots face off in the heat final. Fights will be scored the same as series 8/9 robot wars as well, so:
-3 points for a win
-2 points for a JD
-0 points for a loss

Role Play Rules

-cbc saw rules

-> You

I wish to enter!
I'll bring in Yeager I, since Yeager II isn't completed.
Image
3 speed / 5 traction / 3 torque / 11 weapon / 8 armour

Armed with a single high speed drum in the centre. The aim with Yeager's design is that bots will slide up the smooth front of Yeager, with that zero ground clearance front end, and hit the drum, sending them sky high!
Only major issues with Yeager I, which i plan to alter with the new upcoming version, are the speed and the fact that with the current placement of the weapon it can't run both ways...well..not well anyway XD

Fuck all y'all, your extended families and your dead ancestors:

TRG's flagship design is back for its fifth iteration and ready to guard the Gates of Tartarus once more. It's

<big>[font=papyrus]<big><big><big>Hellhound V</big></big></big>[/font]</big>

The dog's here to shit on your bed, chew on your shoes, and scare your neighbour's little bitch of a kid again. It's a rammer with a (smaller than before) 360 lifter and its spikes are removable. If you need this explained to you any further, you should actually just go and do the human genome a favour by playing hopscotch in a minefield. Album link is the title. Thanks for looking.

This tournament needs more silly robots. Here's one with a bad temper and a mean look in her eye. Maybe she's just a little hangry. Your robot is looking pretty tasty right about now...

Featuring the latest in "What's a corner? Never heard of it." technology, this double-disc vertical spinner is the most aquatic-themed Aquatic Robotics robot in a while. It self-rights by creating large dents in the arena floor :v:

My entry: Nasty Heaty Stabby (N.H.S)
it has 4 wheels hidden under the chassis.
it has 3 setups.
Flipper Config
Speed: 6, Traction: 5, Torque: 2, Armour: 6, weapon: 11.
flipper is top hinged, in an attempt to fling others as high as possible.
Lifter Config
Speed: 6, Traction: 5, Torque: 2, Armour: 11(+5 front armour panels), weapon: 6.
Armour panels are on hinges. Armour panels have been shortened, and now only cover 1/3 of the surface area of the bot.
Sawblade Config
Speed: 6, Traction: 5, Torque: 2, Armour: 7(+1 front panels), weapon: 10 (8 for sawblade, 1 for arm, 1 for flamethrower).
front panels hinged. the flamethrower is mounted on the sawblade arm, pointing to where the blade should make its cuts, to try and actually damage things with it.
