That'd be pretty cool Trov, so you could in theory list on the front page people waiting for a game etc?

I really wish I didn't have to say this...
It has come to my attention that several members of the community have contacted the developers of this mod asking for either a) Bots to be released early to them or b) The bots that will not be added due to the aforementioned legal reasons.
This mod will be released when it is READY to be released, containing all the bots the developers have been ALLOWED to put in - It's not really their choice if they cannot add certain bots. Similarly, the future replicas are all planned, so requests, unless asked for, are NULL AND VOID. Be thankful for what is coming to the community and be patient. I know the attitudes of many here are grating upon the developers who do all this in their spare time, in a way that too much more may mean this is yet another excellent mod that doesn't make it's way to ANYBODY. Again, I wish I didn't have to say this, but further actions in the veins of those described above may incur sanctions, as the developers are frankly starting to feel harassed.
So enjoy the previews and look forward to what you will be able to play in the future.

Your Plan A isn't very good either - if HB hasn't been given permission to make it for the mod, I doubt there'd be any chance of having it as almost an expansion to the mod. As I said, FORGET those robots were included. If they get included, it will be a pleasant surprise.
Any more 'schemes' to get those robots included in here will get a warn, because it's been said so many times now.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but have you really been contacting the guys that made each robot and saying "uhhh yes my name is hereticblue from the renowned website gametechmods.com, do you mind if we recreate this robot for this mod we're making in our free time for no monetary profit, in this 10 year old game practically NOBODY has heard of?" Would that be correct? Or am I just misunderstanding something here?
Dalek's right. The RW community very much knows of this game, perhaps not the community, perhaps that's for good reason. The fact stands that this will be an official thing under the RW brand, even if it is free, so yes, the roboteers have all been contacted to check it's alright, and also to get more detailed photos of each bot from my understanding.

I'm betting on the original chaos
That's a shame hope it gets back to normal
We could convince them signing a partition or something along those lines.
I don't think you understand what HB has said at all. The reason they might not go in is due to CONTRACTS made with Robots Live and Robot Wars, the 2 being very separate companies in the UK. A petition changes nothing. As I said, HB knows the situation, so he will let us know IF and only if he can use them. Until then, pretend those bots were never even involved.

That's a major shame. Will Storm II still be up to download somewhere? I know HB did a fantastic job on a new Storm II and I'd hate to see his work go to waste.
Edit: Never mind, read the OP again. Well I know who I'm adding to this mod once DSL3 comes out :P
Hate to be annoying but will we see any more older replicas or is it just going to be modern bots from HB here on out?
If you have been following there are old reps like mace and limpet atm
Badnik asked if HB is only making modern ones, I'm pretty sure we've all noticed your excellent Mace/Limpet replicas :)

As far as I'm concerned, we shouldn't be saying 'oh that one will be fine' etc - HB understands the situation better than anyone else as he is actually working with the people that run these events.

3. Windows somehow corrupted and I need to reinstall Windows 7. This basically means a 50% chance of everything getting wiped, as Windoze reinstallations tend to go. I had all of my current all of my RA2 things saved in a C:/Games/ folder. If everything DOES go wrong, at least I can use recuva or something to get some of my bots back..
Can't you just take out the hard drive and hook it up to another computer and get your RA2 files then reinstall Windows?
This is pretty much what all those tournament hosts should also learn. I bought a cheap external mount for a HDD on Amazon so I could move files from an old laptop to a new one a few years back, it's been invaluable in situations like that.

Tornado (the interchangeable weapons didn't really come in until series 6)
The Series 5 version only had the disc (if it didn't have interchangeables), so the scoop version HB did was 6 (it had the flail too for 7)

Bear in mind HB has also said (multiple times) that the arena's aren't ready yet :P

Could even be screenshots of the models overlaid onto the arena.
