Our Replicas Are Different Splash, vids and stuff.

[Wolfsbane]

Well, Vert seems to think it'll be me, I on the other hand reckon Badnik stands a pretty good chance. I think your weapons have Normals, so they'll only do damage from the front. If someone gets it from the side, then I think it could be gone pretty quick.

yeah, but thats 4 npc fasts, and if it pushes you head on, you'll be in a world of hurt

Could be damaging, but you can only attack from the front, with three other unprotected sides. I have 360 degrees of offense and defense, which is a pretty good thing if you're in a rumble like we are. =]

Don't you remember the grand final of series 7? the only damage taken from storm 2 was self-inflicted, when he rammed into the wall, if storm 2 was more careful, he would of been series 7 champion.   plus,    Rammer>Spinner

Depend on the bots, and in the case of you vs NFX, Spinner>Rammer

my robot has STEEL 5, what does yours have aluminum 3?

I haven't entered

Good luck to you in this tourney, but don't get too cocky, it won't go down very well :/

[NFX]

I'm pretty sure mine has Tite 5 or Steel 5, I can't remember. But in the case of Valid Query 2 vs. Fever, Rammer > Spinner.

[dragonsteincole]

Good lord, that splash is awesome.

JD looks to have built the winner, but if kill343GS can flip anything into his 'basket' then I say, nay, DEMAND he be given a trophy too.

[Badnik96]

:D

You're back!!

[MikeNCR]

I think the fight between mine and JD's bot will be quite the show if they meet.

[freeziez]

Lol, there's no way I could win a match! :D

...Except against Scrap. XD

[Jack Daniels]

Analysis:

Hammer and the Cheese: Is that a burst I see peeking through there? Hammerbot and a SNS. These two misfits are going to cause quite a ruckus.

Twincycle of Ouchies: Soooo cool! Insane rear protection. Gonna be a bumpy ride though, would have gone with doubled beater bars instead of small teeth.

Wheel Bug: Gonna be fun to watch get destroyed. Brittle legs, I wonder if they will twitch on the arena floor like a real bug.

Moonlight Slaughter in E Flat: Amazing! I don't see how it will do much damage... but Amazing! *drool*

Corn Mauler: Slow... Top Heavy... no Srimech... Not as effective as you guys think. :P

Dozer: My fav bot of the tourney. It is so mean looking!

Vroom2011: Dark horse pick. I think this bot is more dangerous than it looks.

The Cake is a Fake: I hope that is a max-steel cake... because it looks delish!

Pummel Bass: You installed the kick hammer! <3 This one is going to seriously kick ass.

Washing Machine: SFTW... and there is nothing wrong with that!

Bi-Plane: Aw, so cute. Like little toys. Watching 'em zoom around will be a blast.

SnowBlown: That thing looks mean and effective. Looks like it is invertible too... very dangerous.

Chair of Pure Evil: Why do I have a funny feeling Scrap actually owns a chair like this.

Attention Shoppers: So awesome! Too bad the flippers will be too weak against SHW bots. We gotta film this thing pwning some beetleweights or something.

Drillinator: VICIOUS! Thank god it doesnt have metal hinge wedges, or I would say it is unstoppable. Love the use of plows!

Wild Card Entries:

CBBOD: Wolf has been dying to enter a tourney, so he built a rather uninspired brown box with spikes. Thankfully he used less than effective weapons... so he wont be rep-raped later.

Lapshade of Doom: I don't want that damn thing on my lap! looks like it would hurt! :P  Looks pretty mean, I think it will win the wildcard.

CFAMS: NICE! Glad to see that Badnik figured out something to build. Really imaginative too!

Air-Pain 1.5: Hard to see the weapons on this... or the landing gear... or... ??? how the does it fight? Can't wait to see it in action.



Wild Card Winner: La"M"pshade of Doom

Main Bracket Winner: Pummel Bass

Loser Bracket Winner: Drillinator

Dark Horse: Vroom2011

La"M"pshade of Doom

Well spotted, JD. Was that a typo in the splash, or me not paying attention when naming it?

[yoda9726]

Analysis:

Hammer and the Cheese: The master of froonium arrives.  The cheese, a flipper. Ordinarily a bad choice for the combat arena, but in this particular tourney, could fair well.  Hammer: An interesting case, It's a literal hammer, that looks like a SNS, but is actually a rammer. 
 
Twicycle of Ouchies: Not effective at all, but with a name like Twicycle of Ouchies, who cares?
 
Wheel Bug: I think this is my favorite, so hard to choose in this one.  Insanely cool.
 
Moonlight Slaughter in E Flat: Another favorite.  Looks great, sounds that way too.  It makes it's own music.  Even the component which does so (a servo with modified sound) fits the theme.  Makes me think of one of those old feeder pianos.
 
Corn Mauler: Award for THE most empty space goes here. I hope it gets flipped so you guys can see all the work Jack put in under the chassis.  The weapon looks scary, but in action, a bit less than you might think.
 
Dozer: Insanely fast for a bot that has treads...That's because it's tricky.  Great work.
 
Vroom2011: Yet another favorite.  Great workmanship.
 
The Cake is a Fake: Complete with a candle on top.  You can't go wrong with cake.
 
Pummel Bass: I still wish the kick pedal worked, but still, great looking bot and one of the heavy damagers.  will go far.

Washing Machine: Not damaging, Not invertible, but fun.  I forgot the flames in the splash, but they're there.  Looks funny as when there's smoke coming out.
 
Bi-Plane: The first (and second) plane of the tourney.  I love it when they get knocked in the air.   

SnowBlown: Where was this thing when my driveway was frozen over?!?!?!  Scary, scary scary.

Chair of Pure Evil: Too bad 'bout not getting your update in.  On the brightside, this might give us some hilarious moments.
 
Attention Shoppers: Another flipper in the combat zone.  Again, in this tourney, might fair decently.  I still love the lazy wheel. 

Drillinator: This thing is amazing.  If it stays on it's wheels, it should do great.   

Wild Card Entries:

CBBOD: Award for the most simplistic design goes here.  Suprisingly slow for 4WD,
 
Lapshade of Doom: (Typo NOT mine, btw) Another heavy hitter.  I almost want to make a lamp like this IRL.
 
CFAMS: No thank you, a Metal smoothie doesn't sound good at all.  The bot, however is cool.  Unfortunately, it's pretty slow, which hurts it.
 
Air-Pain 1.5: Plane number 3.  Gigantic wingspan, flames goin backwards, LOVE IT.
 
All in all, You guys did great.  This was exactly what I was hoping for in this.  Wildcard rumble is filmed, and will be edited when I get home from work tonight.  After that, i'm gonna try for an average of a video a day.  See you guys soon.

SING ALONG TIME

Cheese: "So Hammer, what are we going to do tonight?"
The Hammer: "The same thing we do every night. Try to take over GTM!"

To take over the site,
They'll buttrape Box of Doom.

Yes they're odd reps,

Dude, oh my Christ. Saying RA2 is like real life is like saying Ghaddafii is a peace keeper.

Could have used a different analogy, I suppose. But the principle stands, RA2 is to Physics what Kingsmill is to the Atkins Diet.

GI Joe- The Rise of COBRA to Team Fortress 2?

[Sparkey98]

Team fortress 2 to a game that makes sense?

[NFX]

We get it, RA2 physics is abysmal. =]

[GoldenFox93]

We get it, RA2 physics is abysmal. =]

Even still, they're a damn sight better than the RW- Arenas of Destruction physics. At least weapons, drive and power sources on the Replicas last more than thirty seconds  :P
