12 Days of RA2 - Tournament
« on: November 28, 2017, 12:52:49 PM »
Starting from Christmas Day, 12 Days of RA2 will take place. Christmas themed robots will have to be made, (whether it's a red, white and green colour scheme or the robot has a christmas related name). This mini series is a series of tournaments, working a bit like Robot Wars Extreme and having a new style of battle each day. All competitions will happen in the Robot Wars 2016 arena.

Game - DSL 2.2
Realistic Rule - IRL
Rule of seven break and CF and BFE is allowed, but no other external editing. No cheatbot2 parts either to keep the matches fair. I can AI but if you have specific smart zones or bindings you want to use message them over.
You can enter a maximum of four tournaments, so chose which ones you want to enter wisely. Any vacant spots will be filled in by one of my mediocore machines. You may enter the same robot in multiple events, (for example a spinner entered in heavyweight tournament and spinner showdown). Entries start from now until the 12th of December, giving two weeks to enter and two weeks for me to record the battles.

Good luck!

I would say that cheatbot2 parts are banned just to make it an even playing field, I will add that to the description

12 tournaments? 4 Christmas themed robots? I like your ambition.

Could you specify if you're using Mr. AS's balance patch? I'm asking because these weapons are addable without Cheatbot2:

You know that you need to wait for this to actually go into Signups officially before you accept entries, right?

Yup, however hammers and spikes instead of axe heads are also allowed.
