I'll probably go with a serious 'bot actually; I can't imagine any of the abovementioned doing terribly well here.

So this is basically King of Karnage 2 ??? But even better ???

rules are similar but non comparable with KOK..

Mad and Trov have actually made some cool jousting work for the next time around I run one..

Anyone remember those El Tonno robots that enjoyed a brief period of popularity on the old Atari forums?


This is kind of like that.  But in a tournament setting... it will be extremely interesting to see what people churn out.


Question: do the arms have to move (be on bursts or servos)?  And are there any length restrictions or can you have stubby T-Rex arms?

To lack feeling is to be dead, but to act on every feeling is to be a child.

The El Tonno craze was just a bit before my time, I think.

I have a lolzy idea for this :P

Should have the same feeling as KOK, upbeat and fun.. nobody caring either way how matches go and just having a laugh.

I love this idea so much that it would be silly to not give SKBT the Boxing Ring Arena  :gawe:

Could we make our own skins for the head if we want to, to, you know, give it a bit of variety?
