This is Voodoo II, wanted to do a wedge design similar to the RW series 10 version of Thor, pretty happy with how it turned out even tho it's a flatline clone.

That is the BOT file and will show the components attached to your bot. They pull from the component library. It's normal to have 2

So, here's the short story - I got into Robot Arena 2 through an offhand comment on Youtube, and started hanging around some of the RA2-related Discords as a result of that - some of you may have noticed my entry 'B80' in Orc's Wars, specifically the World Championship in 3. In doing so though, I noticed that I kept seeing a lot of the same names when it came to tournaments - Bocuma, Eyes On Me, and so on. This got me thinking - why not have a tournament that is wholly new bots out there that haven't really been seen?

Thus Fresh Metal was born. 36 robots not seen anywhere else, battling it out over 6 heats and a grand final in a reskinned Robot Wars 2016 arena, to see who is the king of the unseen. Before each heat, a vote will be held to show which entry in the heat is the fan favourite, after which there will be three 1-on-1 fights to open the heat. The 3 winners of these 1v1s will go through to the second round, alongside the most popular of the losers. To determine the heat winner, it will then be round robin format to determine the heat winner, with with ties being decided by rematch.

Build Rules:
  • DSL-IRL Heavyweights - 800kg weight limit, no nonsensical clipping. If you could cut a hole in it without affecting the bot, however, it's fair game.
  • Your bot cannot be an entrant from a previous tournament, or an upgraded version of an entry in a previous tournament.
  • Component Freedom and DSC IRL packs are allowed and encouraged, as is BFE for chassis height, extender colours and pixel chassis. OBJ bots are also allowed, provided they aren't too heavy on faces.
  • Reskinned components are okay, but only reskins. No wholesale custom parts.
  • Clusterbots are banned. Tried to make them work, but they break the Grand Final too much - sorry!
  • Swiss Army Bots are allowed 3 configurations. The chassis and internals unrelated to the weapon (batteries, drive system, armour etc.) should remain the same across configurations.
  • Flat Motors, Hworf Blades and the Overkill Motor are valid parts from cheatbot2. No others, however.
  • You are limited to 1 Beta Burst/Motor, or 2 VDMA Bursts of the same kind. No mixing and matching.
  • No Typhoon teeth or Mechavore/Microvore/Minion/Miniminion discs. We have so many other parts, let's see them!
  • No servos unless you can do your own AI and send it with the bot.
  • No 'meltybrain' bots.
  • No bots using EternalFlame.py or logic.
  • Steel 10mm armour is banned.
  • No spamming or excessively stacking stuff. This rule applies to both extenders and weapons, and 'excessive' weapon stacking is considered more than 1 tooth per attachment point on the weapon. No doomstacks of teeth!
  • If the loadtime for your bot is too long or it crashes too much during testing, I reserve the right to reject it.
  • If you have a self-righting mechanism that clips through the floor too many times in a given fight, you will be ruled as immobilised.

These rules might look familiar - they're a modified version of the Orc's Wars ruleset, since that's what I have the most experience building towards, plus it's what got me into RA2 in such a big way in the first place.

Well, that's me about run out of things to say - here's hoping you guys like the idea and enough of you want to enter, heh. You're also more than welcome to leave your thoughts on what I've got here so far as well, since, well, new tournament host and all.

Merged the challenge belt status thread into here.

Also as an aside — the weight class was supposed to rotate every month, but it seems it is permanently on HW?

It's whatever people decide when doing the challenge.
