Robo Zone 2 - Stock Antweights.
===============================

House Robots:

Challenges:

Offense: Beat the Box - your AW against a box robot with lots of defense.

Defense: Survival - your AW against a much larger robot.

Team Work: Multi-bot challenge - 2 of your submitted AW vs 1 BW.

Overall Design: Gauntlet - your aw faces 3 aws in a row, the match is 1v1 to start and the other 2 will join the battle at set intervals when they are released from the cage).

*Multi-bot challenge will have a time limit of 2:00 and will take place in the classic robo zone arena (re-skinned RA2 tourney arena) with hazards off.

*Beat the Box will have a time limit of 1:00 and will take place in the mini combat zone arena (re-skinned small arena) with hazards off.

*Gauntlet will have a time limit of 3:00 and will take place in the Robo Zone arena with hazards on (the only hazard is that all the robots go for you!).

*Survival will have a time limit of 1:00 and will take place in the mini combat zone arena (re-skinned small arena) with hazards off.

Final: Top 4 Robo Zone Rumble - The final between the top 4 robots, the 2 robots with the lowest amount of points will start the match first and the other 2 will join the battle at set intervals when they are released from the cage with the robot who got the most points joining last.

Rules:

#1 - Weight class = Antweight (125kg and under).
#2 - DSL or Stock = Stock, only normal stock parts including AI parts allowed. No 140cm square extender or Cheatbot(2) parts.
#3 - Realistic rule or not = Non-realistic.
#4 - Arena to be used = Mini combat zone, Classic Robo Zone Arena and Robo Zone Arena.
#5 - Arena hazards on or off = Off for mini combat zone, Off for Classic Robo Zone Arena and On for Robo Zone Arena.
#6 - Number of entrants/date signups will close (can be both) = 10-20 entries.
#7 - IS BFE, AAM, or Zero G is allowed = No
#8 - Which glitches allowed? = Basic in-game stacking glitches such as axle/snapper loading etc. are allowed but Trov glitch, Hax mode etc. are not allowed.
#9 - Type of bots allowed/disallowed = Crawlers, one-wheeled bots, Nasty pickles, bumble bots and multi-bots are not allowed.
#10 - Any attempt to find a loophole will be met with the rejection of your robot, you should know what stock is.
#11 - Robots must have controlled movement.
#12 - You CAN AI your own bot and it is preferred that you do so as I will be doing only basic AI'ing (copy, paste, change name, change PY if needed type AI'ing).
#13 - Any major havok explosions will be edited out, any robot that constantly havoks (3+ times in a row) however will earn 0 points for that round.

Points scoring:

Points will be given in ascending intervals of 1 from worst to best performing bot in each challenge with the worst performer getting 0 points. So in a 10 robot tournament the best performing bot in each challenge would receive 9 points.

Special condition scoring rules:

Gauntlet - Your robot must cause the elimination of bots for it to be counted as a KO for it. 3 KO's > 2 KO's > 1 KO > any score without a KO.
Multi-bot challenge - If one bot is eliminated it's score does not count towards your score.

Awards:

Challenge winners - Robo Zone 2 AI Pack.
Top Points scorer - Robo Zone 2 AI Pack or Robo Zone Arena.
Winner of Top 4 Robo Zone Rumble (Grand Champion) - Robo Zone 2 AI Pack and Robo Zone Arena.

Classic Robo Zone Arena:

I'm quite looking forward to this. I've got an idea for it, I just need to see if I can make it work properly.

I'm looking forward this too! =D

Are we allowed to use your AW chassis for this?

Sure, as long as the bot is your own design.

This is a replay of the top 4 battle royal from Robo Zone 1 with the brand new arena that gives an advantage to your bot the closer it finishes to the top of the points ladder.

1st: UndeaD - 31pts
2nd: Antichrist V.1 - 27pts
3rd: spin cycle 2 - 24pts
4th: Robotogeddon - 23pts

Robotogeddon and spin cycle 2 will start the match, after 30 seconds or when one of the first 2 are defeated Antichrist V.1 will enter the match and UndeaD will enter the match last after another 30 seconds or when only 1 robot remains in the match.

That arena look fantastic. =D I'm really looking forward to this tournament now.

Wedge + single razor on axle + 2 pinks? :P

I should also note that the box does have defence on the bottom in the form of casters but there are spots where you can deal damage.

the best i would expect from an aw gutripper is maybe a popup with a single razor and 2 pinks

but if all these casters are towards the front a aw popup is pretty much screwed, wouldnt expect sonething like chest burster to be reliably able to get though the casters anyway

Chest burster is utter crap anyways. Yeah what I meant was that aw gutripper = pretty much inexistant

The public will get it after the winner gets some exclusive time with it :) I edited the awards, as I probably won't have the spare time to put together a special AI pack for the winner.
