Title: Motorama style tournament (Name TBA)
Post by: Badnik96 on May 30, 2013, 12:30:26 PM
Rules:


DSL2, IRL realism, custom parts are not allowed.


Double elimination. If a weight class gets less than 8 entrants, that tournament will be round robin.


Weight classes:
Antweight (0-125 kg)
Beetleweight (125.1-175 kg)
Mantis (175.1-200 kg)
Hobbyweight (200.1-248.9 kg)
Featherweight (249-300 kg)
Sportsman (249-300 kg plus building restrictions)


Arena will be the small arena (with a possible reskin), with hazards off.


Sportsman building restrictions:
-Wedges must be less than 25% of the length of the body
-Spinning weapons cannot use a motor more powerful than a Slimbody motor, unless the weapon is a sawblade.
-Robots must have an active weapon

General tourney rules:
-Each robot gets one havok restart for the entire tournament. If your robot havoks again it is DQed from the competition.
-BFE can only be used for chassis height. AAM and Hax Mode are not allowed.
-Ingame glitches can be used if you need to, aside from the aforementioned Hax Mode.
-Walkerbots get a 50% weight bonus. Shufflebots get a 10% weight bonus.
-One Judge Burst motor is allowed per robot, all other cheatbot2 parts are banned.
-Any usage of flail weaponry is banned.
-Robots can have an unlimited amount of updates.
-Fairyweight battles will be 2 minutes long, all other battles will go for 3 minutes.
-Clusterbots are allowed, but they must add up to a combined weight under the weight limit for that class. Both robots must be knocked out for the cluster to be eliminated.


I will need judges for this, but that can be arranged later. Battles will be judged on Aggression, Damage and Strategy (5 points per category per judge).



So yeah. Discuss. This probably won't happen until the fall, but I got the idea now and wanted to get it down.

I would enter this with my TWMR2-powered SS Mantis, but as Naryar pointed out, we can't use anything faster than a Slimbody. Fix this rule now.

I mean the Small Arena that was used in BBEANS3 and Beetleweight Bash.

unfortunately this is also true. Sometimes I hate RA2...


I might just get rid of Fairies and the new BW class and just run AW, BW, FW and LW/Sportsman.

Oh wow. Seriously guys?

I'm gonna make it DSL 2 for two reasons:

1) you guys are used to the old parts and stuff

2) I can use the BWs entered for BW Bash :3

Also a slight rule change in the Sportsman, you can use a Piglet if you're running a sawblade
