Samurai Showdown - Signups Closed
« on: April 07, 2015, 08:06:09 PM »


Well, Donut of Destruction was a lot of fun (for me, at least), so I figured, why not go for another?  Here's what sprang to mind:

SAMURAI SHOWDOWN

Rules:
-Stock CW (600 kgs)
-Arena will be the DSL Tournament Arena (maybe with a lame reskin if I figure out how to do that and am not lazy)
-And the big twist: the only weapon (ie "thing in the "Weapons" tab") allowed is the samurai sword.

More rules:
-No BFE, Hax, or whatever other crazy nonsense
-No cheatbot parts
-I'll AI robots if you can't/don't feel like it
-Single elimination, best of 3 matches
-16 entrants max
-Bots can be updated one time after submitting them.
-Havok explosions will result in a match reset.  Matches which end in a havok will only be shown if they are particularly amusing.
-For winning Donut of Destruction, RedAce's robot can be a max of 600.1 kgs.

I'll enter with Blade Breaker:


Basically, it's Ray Rice: The Tournament, but with swords.  And 200 extra kgs.

Signups end on May 30, at 3 PM GMT-4:00, or whenever they fill up.

Entry list:
1. Thrackerzod
2. RedAce
3. Kungfooey
4. Somebody
5. Pizzaguy2020
6. 090901
7. Wacky Bob

Are multibots allowed?

I've moved to other forums. Under a different name. This is where it all began.

Did I not specify that?  Oops.  They are indeed allowed, if you can manage one.

This isn't an online competition; simply send your robot to Thrackerzod and he will AI it for you and put it in the tournament. Once the tournament starts there will be videos featuring every match until it's over.

Yes, this tournament is going to be in Stock, which is just the basic RA2 game.  Like Badnik said, all you need to do to compete is send me a .bot file via PM; you won't need to use Hamachi or anything.  Here's a tutorial by Craaig.
