The people who have bought along modular 'bots have 7 days as of this message to send me their configs for the Heats! Just keep in mind that you have to only decide for the Heats right now. In the case of the Semi-Finals, there can be another time period where you can send configs. We're almost ready...
MODULAR 'BOT CHOICE DEADLINE IS 19:00, 22/11/2020.
doot:
Hey, guys. I got all the choices for all the modular 'bots, so you guys are all fine. I've managed to record up all of Heat A ready to go, though admittedly I've not been feeling at my best recently, what with being stuck at home all the time.
Still, I'm working on this and am actually happy to keep on going with this tournament, so don't worry about me! Hopefully if everything ends up all good, I should be able to get the first heat up at 19:00 on Sunday, though I shouldn't really hold any promises.
Here's hoping this all goes well! ^_^
Edit: I've actually moved the date to Saturday now, so the first heat should be coming soon! ^_^
doot:
So its finally time for Annihilation Nation 2 to officially start! The first heat is finally up for you all to watch! ^_^
Fight Summaries:
Eliminator 1:
One thing to note about Annihilation Nation 2 is that havoks may be a more commonplace sight than you might expect, and its simply because RA2's physics are unable to handle 4 'bots at once. Regardless, I was shocked that both Apogee and Pyongyang, the strongest 'bots in the heat of death, were shut down so fast. Brumalia seemed to survive more than it did actually win on its own merits while Blue proved itself an effective 'bot on its own.Eliminator 2:
So, yeah, the havok issues? Allord's one of the most annoying cases, mainly because the wheels clip into the motors and the drum's motor is in the drum itself. Took me ages to get a take that didn't result in Allord catapulting itself out of the arena when a component broke, and as for the fight itself, Old Glory proved itself the strongest, while Aesthetics got by through being the 'bot that was more controlled in the battle. And poor Monolith was utterly eviscerated...Losers Rumble:
Welp, say goodbye to one of the 'bots I thought would win the whole thing. The draw was horribly unkind to Pyongyang Dreams, who would've steamrolled any other heat besides this heat. Apogee III redeemed itself incredibly well, with three straight OotA's in a row, the equivalent of 3 Doctor Feelgoods.Winners Rumble:
I must admit, I had Aesthetics put down as one of the weaker 'bots in the heat of death, but through sheer luck (and potentially a bit of damage) it managed to win by being the last 'bot moving properly. Old Glory was very unlucky to lose a wheel in the first 5 seconds, while Blue was thrown out without much fuss and Brumalia did a dumb.Final Showdown:
Well, Apogee came back with a vengeance, didn't it? Brumalia had no chance to avoid an OotA, Blue suffered a similar fate and I was actually kinda surprised Old Glory managed to get a good attack on one of the wheelguards. However, that damage was all for nought when Apogee pulled off its 6th OotA in a row.Overall Thoughts:
For this being the well-touted Heat of Death, this was admittedly not the greatest set of fights we got to watch. Still, a few surprises happened that I wasn't expecting to happen, and hopefully the heats pick up the further we get into this.
Other Notes:
Yep, that's actually my voice in the intro. Wanted to make this with some more flair, though it sounds like I've downed 12 bottles of nyquil beforehand. The editing's a little shaky as well, particularly in soundmixing, but its just me having to get to grips with new editing software. Oh, well. :P
HEAT B COMING SOON...

I honestly thought the battles weren't bad, happy that Apogee got through the heat over Old Glory or Blue
