Concretor

**Concretor** was a lightweight robot which competed in the final two seasons of BattleBots. It was originally an invertible wedge-shaped robot with no active weapon. It was updated to having a vertically-spinning disc for Season 5.0. It didn't perform well in competition, winning only one battle in Season 5.0.

Concretor was so named because it was initially designed to have concrete armor. However, this was scrapped for unknown reasons.

## Robot History

### Season 4.0

Concretor's first and only match in Season 4.0 was against General Gau. At the start of the match, Concretor was apparently high-centered some, its wheels just spun, barely moving, and General Gau came over and pushed it. Both robots' motion seemed a bit jerky after that; General Gau probably because the magnet wheels were giving too much traction and Concretor's wheels were barely touching the ground. General Gau slowly pushed Concretor against the spikestrip. By that point, Concretor was immobilized and General Gau was hitting it a few more times. Concretor was counted out and General Gau won by KO. This meant that Concretor was eliminated from the tournament.

### Season 5.0

Concretor's first match was against Sisyphus. Concretor won by KO and advanced to the next preliminary round, where it faced Mini-G. Mini-G won by KO and Concretor was eliminated from the tournament again.

Crocodile (Clash Bots)

## Overview

**Crocodile** (Chinese: *鱷斯拉*) was one of two purpose-built House Robots which featured in the first and only series of *Clash Bots*.

It largely featured in events where several 110kg competitors would compete to try to destroy a structure with a star on top, serving as a distraction alongside a second House Robot called Dominator.

## Design

Crocodile was a long, dark robot designed to look like the animal it was named after. It featured a large head at the front with snapping jaws and a wedge to feed opponents into its grasp. Crocodile also sported a long tail at the rear, and spikes across its body.

## Trivia

* Crocodile was built by a Chinese robot combat team called Metal Charm.
Cyber Shark

**Cyber Shark** was a robot designed by the Oakbank Robot Group that competed in the Swimming event during Series 1 of Techno Games in 2000. It performed decently as it reached the Swimming finals but broke down at the start. Despite not winning the event, the team received the Beat Teamwork Award at the end of the series.

## Robot History

### Techno Games 2000

Cyber Shark's first heat was against Flower Bot. Cyber Shark won the heat flawlessly as Flower Bot never reached the finish line and Cyber Shark finished at 1:13. This win put Cyber Shark to the swimming finals, where it faced Calypso and Snappy.

Unfortunately, Cyber Shark broke down at the start and never got going. This meant that it got third place overall after Calypso finished first at 34 seconds and Snappy finished second at 49 seconds. In the end, Calypso was declared the winner overall and Cyber Shark received the bronze medal.

CUAD the Annihilator

**CUAD the Annihilator** was a middleweight robot that competed in BattleBots Season 4.0. It was a parallelogram-shaped robot with a triangular battering ram on one side to stop robots from going all the way up the wedge. It won one fight before losing a judge's decision to 2925 Jack Rabbit.

The team also entered with CUAD the Crusher and CUAD the Unmerciful.

## Robot History

CUAD'S first match was against Root Canal. Root Canal struck CUAD early on with the saw, dealing little damage but scoring points, and then managed to get under CUAD. Then, CUAD went into a defensive spin, causing smoke to start coming from the tires. Root Canal moved in with the saw again, but CUAD charged Root Canal, slamming it against the wall, and Root Canal stopped moving. The fight ended before Root Canal could be counted out, but it still lost the fight on a 26-19 decision. CUAD moved on to fight 2925 Jack Rabbit.

CUAD had such severe control problems that he ran right into the wall as the match began. They then started darting around each other and trying very hard to line up shots, and not suceeding very much. Jack Rabbit missed CUAD by inches and ran into a wall again, and this time it was the wall that won. Jack Rabbit threw a chain on the right side of its drive because the magmotors bent the drive shafts from the hit. CUAD then got a few shots on Jack Rabbit, wedging under it and hitting at the same time, and Jack Rabbit got a few more hits on CUAD. The judges scored a 25-20 decsion in the favor of Jack Rabbit, and CUAD was out.

Cobra (UK)

*Not to be confused with the Belgian robot or the Australian robot*

**Cobra** was a flat, titanium, invertible machine that fought in the seventh series of Robot Wars, where it lost its only battle. It is implied that Cobra previously attempted to qualify for other unspecified series. The name cobra is derived from the snake mascot riding the robot.

Cobra featured a high-pressure pneumatic spike for weaponry, driven by a large ram, that was concealed by a plush serpent's head, but it was only capable of up to six attacks per battle. Its aluminium wheels were covered in golf shoe studs, similar to Wheely Big Cheese. Its less than potent weaponry was noted by many, including Jonathan Pearce and Jayne Middlemiss.

## Robot History

### Techno Games 2002

Cobra also entered spin-off show Techno Games, entering the Assault Course in the 2002 Series. Cobra lost in the first round to Hellbound, failing to complete the course after breaking down on one side right at the start, leaving it only able to spin in circles.

### Series 7

In Round 1 of the Seventh Wars, Cobra was drawn against Kronic the Wedgehog, The Kraken and Pinser. Kronic the Wedgehog flipped Cobra over, then Cobra rammed Pinser before attacking The Kraken, rather unsuccessfully, appearing to have lost drive on one side almost immediately after it was turned over. It ran into the side wall and appeared to have immobilised itself by bashing against the angle grinders. The Kraken then came in and scraped Cobra's titanium shell with its crusher before Pinser took over from The Kraken and crunched into the aluminium wheel of Cobra, before driving over a spurt of flame and breaking down itself.

Refbot then counted out Pinser and Cobra together; both were then placed on the floor flipper, flipped, and placed beneath the Drop Zone, where a television was dropped on them.

Armour Geddon (UK)

*Not to be confused with the Robotica Competitor, the Russian robot or the American Super Heavyweight*

**Armour-Geddon** was an unusually shaped robot that competed in Series 3 of Robot Wars. It was shaped like a boulder (or a football, as the team stated) with very thick armoured wheels - coated in hexagonal and pentagonal welded steel plates. Armour Geddon had two modules controlling the wheels, making it basically two robots in one. Armour-Geddon was a torque reaction axlebot, and it featured a spiked weapon with a cutting wheel, much like Stinger.

Armour-Geddon came from St. Peter's School in Huntington. It lost in the first round to Onslaught.

Its name is a pun on the word Armageddon. Team member Jonathan Freeman would later compete in the pilot episode of the 2016 series with Wraith.

## Robot History

Armour-Geddon met Onslaught in its first round battle of Heat I. Onslaught's weapon had no effect on Armour-Geddon, but its arm got stuck on the arena wall. It managed to escape, but could not use its arm and drove very close to the pit, getting stuck. Matilda freed it but Onslaught pushed it and Armour-Geddon rolled from the top-left CPZ straight into the pit.

Brent the Brick

## Overview

Brent the Brick is a replica of NHRL House Robot, Brett the Brick made by Team Hummelbots. It debuted at the NHRL March 2022 meet where it only had one actual fight against Be Careful What You Wish For and lost. Since March 2022, Brent has made sporadic appearances at NHRL riding one of its older brothers in the arena during the back half of the beetleweight tournaments.

### Minibot

While there is no Antweight division at Norwalk Havoc Robot League, they do grant a 1lb weight bonus for multi bots which enabled **Buddybot** to compete alongside Team Hummelbots’ new beetle; Probably Gonna Fail. PGF lost its only fight due to its opponent being a perfect counter to their thin top. Buddybot has accompanied PGF at every Norwalk it has been at, but partnered with Luma's Weed Whacker 3 during the May competition due to wanting another fight after the grudge match with Uprising.

## Fight history

### Norwalk Havoc Robot League March 2022

#### Brent the Brick vs Be Careful What You Wish For

The fight started with both bots spinning up and Be Careful What You Wish For punting Buddybot out of the way before ripping off Brent's disc. Be Careful What You Wish For then punted Buddybot across the arena before parading Brent the Brick around the arena. Brent's drive died and Brett tried to help out, but Brent the Brick was counted out and the win went to Be Careful What You Wish For.

Black Ice (beetleweight)

## Overview

Black Ice is a 2WD vertical spinner with a wedge and wheel protection. It did poorly at Norwalk where it lost its first two fights and was eliminated early.

## Fight history

### Norwalk Havoc Robot League November 2020

#### Black Ice vs Droopy

The fight started with both bots spinning up and figuring out what to do. Droopy then tore off half of Black Ice's wedge and flipped it. Black Ice was hit again by Droopy which caused it to tap out to save itself.

#### Black Ice vs Goodie Bag

The fight started with both bots spinning up and Black Ice tearing off one of Goodie Bag's wedgelets. Black Ice then tore another off as Goodie Bag tried to charge in. With Black Ice removing Goodie Bag's wedgelets, it looked like Black Ice was going to win until Goodie Bag flipped it. Black Ice couldn't self right and was counted out which gave the win to Goodie Bag.

Crazy Coupe 88

**Crazy Coupe 88** is a heavyweight robot which competed in the 2016 series of Robot Wars, built by a Barnsley-based team.

The robot's name is based on the Wacky Races cartoon, and the Kill Bill film series - 'Coupe' comes from the Creepy Coupe car in Wacky Races, while the Crazy 88 gang in Kill Bill determined the remainder of the name.

Crazy Coupe 88 is an invertible robot, and is constructed from 3mm aluminium checker plate, over Kevlar/Carbon-Fibre under-armour. It features a different spinning weapon at each end. At the front of the robot is a 17-inch horizontal bar spinner, which rotates at 2450RPM. The back end of the robot is covered by a vertical disc, which is tipped with elongated blades, in order to try and use the disc as a lifter. However, its wheels are highly exposed.

## Robot History

Crazy Coupe 88 appeared in Episode 5, where it faced Beast, Gabriel and Infernal Contraption in its first round melee. It managed to attack the plastic wheels of Gabriel on its first attack, but after being unable to catch its opponents, Crazy Coupe 88 was thrown over by Beast. After this, it drove straight into the clutches of Dead Metal, which cut in with its saw. Crazy Coupe 88 was instantly immobilised by this House Robot attack, and was eliminated from the competition, suffering an extra attack from Dead Metal while being counted out.

Broadsword

## Overview

**Broadsword** was a round invertible middleweight robot that competed in the Extreme 2 Robot Rampage Middleweight Championship. It was uniquely armed with a very long medieval sword blade.

The team planned to enter the Series 7 Middleweight Championship with a robot called Voodoo Child. It was described as looking flimsier than Broadsword and rife with exposed wires. It did not make it into the arena, likely due to the reliability issues caused by its design.

## Robot History

Broadsword began by attacking the back of Steel Sandwich ineffectively. Then it turned its attention to Typhoon, but again had no effect. While Malc 1.5 grappled with the House Robots and the other competitors grappled with each other, Broadsword appeared to have broken down, and Dead Metal took it into its CPZ, where both it and Shunt attacked Broadsword, bending the sword up 90 degrees. Shunt then flipped Broadsword onto the angle grinder and ripped off the top armour panel. Just after cease was called, Dead Metal pulled out all of Broadsword's components.

Cataclysmic Variabot

**Cataclysmic Variabot**, later shortened to C.V., was a robot from Milton Keynes, that fought in both series of Robot Wars Extreme. Having fought and lost in a Mayhem in its first appearance, it represented the Open University in Extreme Series 2 by taking part in the University Challenge, ultimately losing to Tiberius 3 in the second round.

Its name was likely a pun on "Cataclysmic Variable", a type of Star, possibly being studied by the team members who were taking Astronomy degrees with the Open University. Team Variabot also entered the Featherweight Championship of Robot Wars Extreme: Series 2, using their featherweight version of C.V., AM CVn.

## Robot History

### Extreme 1

Cataclysmic Variabot made its first appearance on Robot Wars in a Mayhem battle, being brought in as a reserve after another robot was forced to withdraw. There, it fought the experienced X-Terminator, as well as Panzer Wraith, another veteran. Although Cataclysmic Variabot was able to ram X-Terminator a few times, it was mostly bullied by the veteran, being pushed into a CPZ, and struck continuously by X-Terminator's axe. Shunt axed the top of Cataclysmic Variabot while it was in the CPZ, allowing Panzer Wraith to come in and attack. Panzer Wraith was able to remove Cataclysmic Variabot's safety link, immobilising it. Refbot counted out the defeated robot, which was thrown by the floor flipper, while the battle was won by X-Terminator.

### Extreme 2

Cataclysmic Variabot, renamed C.V., represented the Open University for the University Challenge. In the first round, it went up against Infernal Contraption and favourites to win the competition, Behemoth. After just a few seconds of fighting, the much more agile Behemoth attacked C.V. side on and swiftly flipped it over onto its back. C.V. appeared to be unable to right itself, due to the axe not being powerful enough. Fortunately for C.V., Behemoth sportingly righted the struggling machine, but persisted in its attack and slammed C.V. into an unoccupied CPZ. Behemoth then gave C.V. the opportunity to get out of the CPZ, but Behemoth itself broke down straight afterwards. Behemoth was then counted out and held over the flame pit by Sir Killalot. This allowed C.V. to go through to the second round along with Infernal Contraption.

C.V. then faced the crushing beak of Tiberius 3 in the Semi-Final round. It never used its axe effectively against Tiberius 3, despite hitting it a few times and getting a grip of the Razer-like machine at one stage, with Tiberius 3 bearing its beak down on C.V.'s shell. As Tiberius 3 then sank its jaw into C.V.'s shell, it opened the pit release button and then pushed the down-on-power C.V. down the pit, eliminating it from the competition.

Code:BLACK

**Code:BLACK** was a lightweight robot built by Adam Baxter of Team LOGICOM for Season 5.0 of the Comedy Central *BattleBots* run. Based on Baxter's earlier middleweight Chopper, it was a two-wheel drive, black and yellow machine armed with an undercutting spinning blade.

Code:BLACK achieved major success in its only season, reaching the semifinals of the lightweight division and defeating Ziggo in an upset along the way.

Code:BLACK's name is a reference to the medical term "code black", in which the patient is either dead or beyond recovery.
Bumper Bawt

**Bumper Bawt** was a middleweight robot from Canada that competed in Seasons 2.0 and 3.0 of BattleBots. It was originally a ramming tire armed with a pneumatic pushing plate, but it was revised for Season 3.0, adding an overhead spinning shell. However, Bumper Bawt lost both of its battles and thus never appeared on television.

Bumper Bawt also appeared on Open Mike with Mike Bullard under the name Bullard Bot.

## Robot History

### Season 2.0

   Bumper Bawt's only match of the season was against Kegger. This fight was over in about 10 seconds. The robots moved towards each other, Bumper Bawt reaching the middle of the arena as Kegger lined up a shot, but Bumper Bawt drove directly over the arena hell-raisers, which popped up suddenly and flipped it over. Kegger then took the opportunity to hammer Bumper Bawt a few times as it was counted out. Kegger won by KO at 1:06 and Bumper Bawt was eliminated from the tournament.

### Season 3.0

Bumper Bawt's only match in Season 3.0 was against T-Minus. After multiple flips from T-Minus, Bumper Bawt was eventually flipped on its side and was counted out. T-Minus won by KO at 1:32 and Bumper Bawt was eliminated from the tournament again.

Blenderhead

Blenderhead was a 6 pound Mantisweight robot built by Travco Robotics. It was a powerful full body spinner that used a titanium shell as its weapon and featured three wheeled omni-drive. Although a destructive crowd favorite, Blenderhead wasn't particularly successful, winning around 33% of its fights across a four year career (notably losing six times to G.I.R.) before retiring following the discontinuation of the mantis class at Kilobots. The shell is occasionally placed on display during Kilobots events to this day.

Bondi Titch

**Bondi Titch** was the Australian representative in the Commonwealth Carnage of Robot Wars Extreme: Series 2. It was built by a member of the Robot Wars crew specifically for this purpose, making it a stock robot, with the driver chosen by a contest held in Australia. In its only battle, it was flipped out of the arena along with Weld-Dor 3 by Firestorm 4.

## Robot History

In its first round battle, Bondi Titch faced Firestorm 4, Weld-Dor 3 and Corkscrew. It was immediately overturned by Firestorm, but was re-righted and moved away from the English machine, which then threw Weld-Dor 3 out of the arena. Bondi Titch then activated the pit release and was nearly thrown from the arena by Firestorm again. Then, Corkscrew came in at full speed and attacked Bondi Titch. It attacked again and knocked a panel off the Brisbane machine. Bondi Titch then attempted to hammer Corkscrew and almost drove into the pit. Firestorm 4 threw it onto the arena wall in a CPZ, and unsuccessfully tried to flip it out three times. Next, Mr. Psycho came in and hit Bondi Titch with its considerably more powerful hammer. The Australian robot then escaped from the CPZ, but Firestorm flipped it over again, and then threw it out of the arena.

Blackout

## Overview

Blackout is a 2WD undercutter made from a Jolt kit. It was going to compete at NHRL July 2021, but was lost in transit along with all its spare parts, transmitter, everything. As of July 29th, 2021, Blackout was found and sent back to its owner. It finally competed at NHRL September 2021 where it went 1-2. At November 2021, its reliability was questionable due to losing its weapon an almost all its fights.

## Fight history

### Norwalk Havoc Robot League September 2021

#### Blackout vs Eruption

The fight started with both bots spinning up and Eruption punting Blackout to the ceiling, sending it into Bert. Blackout then started pinballing around the arena. Blackout recovered and went after Eruption, but went pinballing again and lost a wheel before being thrown several times by Eruption. Bert went to help Blackout, but Blackout just tapped out.

#### Blackout vs Kickback

The fight started with both bots spinning up and Kickback causing Blackout to pinball around the arena. Blackout used the kickback from its own weapon recoil to flip Kickback. Kickback self righted and started throwing Blackout around the arena after nits weapon died. Blackout then tapped out.

### Norwalk Havoc Robot League November 2021

#### Blackout vs Spinasaurus Rex

Spinasaurus Rex never made it to the event.

#### Blackout vs Apex

The fight started with Blackout spinning up and deflecting off of Apex, sending itself across the arena. Without its weapon, Apex resorted to simply pushing Blackout into the walls, which caused it to pinball around the arena. Eventually, Apex lost a wheel and spun up before being thrown into Brett and losing a weapon belt. The fight went to a judges decision where Blackout won.

#### Blackout vs Tiefschlag

The fight started with both bots spinning up and Blackout flipping itself and both bots pinballing around the arena. The entire beginning of the fight was both bots barely controlling themselves and losing their weapons. The rest of the fight was both bots trying to awkwardly push each other around the arena. The fight went to a judges decision where Blackout won.

#### Blackout vs Diamondback

The fight started with both bots spinning up and Blackout launching itself over to Bert. Both bots then lost their weapons and the fight devolved into a shoving match that ended with Blackout dying and being counted out.
Chewy

**Chewy** was a lightweight robot which competed in Season 4.0 of BattleBots. It was a blue and yellow wedge-shaped robot with no active weapon. It didn't perform well in competition, losing its first and only match against 100% Y.A.W.N..

Black & Blue (Heavyweight)

*Not to be confused with Black & Blue (Featherweight)*

**Black and Blue** was Team Mousetrap's entry for Series 7 of Robot Wars. It was a clusterbot - each machine a small invertible box with a 20 kg 6000RPM spinning drum. Their name came from the expression "beaten black and blue". As the name suggests, one robot was black, and the other robot was blue. However, they were rather small for what their weight suggested, and were very easy to push around as Firestorm 5 found out during their only battle.

## Robot History

In the final Heat of the Seventh Wars, Black and Blue were placed up against newcomers Daisy-Cutter, former Dutch Grand Finalists Bamm Bamm and the number 2 seeds Firestorm 5 in the first round melee. The battle started very quickly with Firestorm 5 immediately flipping Black. Firestorm 5 then attacked Blue whilst Bamm Bamm used its axe against Blue. Both Blue and Bamm Bamm were flipped over, but being invertible, this didn't affect Blue. Black was then flipped up again by Firestorm 5, then Black was flipped into its twin. Daisy-Cutter then hit Black, which appeared to stop moving, whilst Blue looked to be stuck on the arena wall. Firestorm 5 meanwhile had pitted Bamm Bamm.

Daisy-Cutter nudged Blue towards the pit of oblvion, and Firestorm 5 pushed it in. As Blue was out of the running, this meant that Black was as well, because if one half of a clusterbot is immobilised, both halves are eliminated from the competition. Black, however, had already been immobilised by Daisy-Cutter, so Blue's pitting was only the conclusion as cease was then immediately called, signalling the elimination of Black and Blue.

Bombus Bombus

**Bombus Bombus** was a lightweight robot that attended the Long Beach 1999 BattleBots competition. It was a gold and black T-shaped robot. It was armed with a small horizontal spinning saw and a rear spike. Due to numerous electronic issues, Bombus Bombus did not compete in either of its matches.
Bombus Bombus was supposedly named after a species of bumblebee of the same scientific name.

An earlier version of Bombus Bombus also entered Robot Wars 1997 in the lightweight division as Finagler.

## Robot History

### Long Beach 1999

Bombus Bombus was scheduled to fight Instigator first, but had technical problems and had to forfeit. Bombus Bombus was now in the loser's bracket, where it would face Stinger. However, Bombus Bombus was struck again with electronic issues, and so it had to forfeit once again, eliminating it from the tournament.

Bombus Bombus did not show up for the kilobot royal rumble due to the issues.

Black Warrior (Farm Fight)

*Not to be confused with the Lightweight robot which competed in BattleBots Season 3.0.*

**Black Warrior** was a Featherweight robot from Florida that competed at the 2002 SECR Farm Fights. It was a black, two-wheeled, wedge-shaped robot built entirely out of scrap. Black Warrior had a plow at the back, and had a Confederate Flag painted on the front wedge.

Black Warrior did not do well in competition, losing both of its battles, despite this it became runner-up by default as only two Featherweights entered Farm Fights.

## Robot History

### Farm Fights 2002

Black Warrior's first opponent was Sunflower, it lost this match. However as there were only two Featherweights in the competition it was best 2 out of 3 and it faced Sunflower again. Once more Black Warrior lost, and became the Featherweight Runner-up.

Cunning Plan

**Cunning Plan** was a featherweight wedge-shaped robot with an aluminium and steel shell that exclusively fought in Series 1 of Robot Wars. Cunning Plan's tactics revolved around using its wedge to rush towards its opponents in the hope that they would run up it and flip over, winning its heat in this manner. Cunning Plan was sponsored by the University of Reading and displayed the university shield on the top of the robot.

At just under 12kg in weight, it was the lightest robot ever to reach the Grand Final of any Robot Wars series, which cost it in its Grand Final battle.

The name Cunning Plan possibly comes from the BBC television series Blackadder in which the character Baldrick would often declare that he has a "cunning plan".

Despite Cunning Plan being retired after Series 1, Oliver Steeples revealed in 2016 that he still owns the robot, and it is fully functional.

## Robot History

Cunning Plan started off by taking the maze route in the Gauntlet. Due to its size it managed to get through it quite quickly. Matilda tried to stop it from reaching the end zone, but actually helped Cunning Plan on. After a brief hold up on the arena spikes Cunning Plan completed the course and almost drove through the arena railings at the same time.

Next was the Trial stage, which was Stock Car. Cunning Plan got off to a good start, but around the first corner crashed into SAT'arn and Demolisher. However it got away, but it soon fell behind the much faster Demolisher, who completed two laps, but then flipped itself over. Cunning Plan then managed to complete two laps without much trouble and then it tried to right Demolisher, but it eventually went over the line to come first.

For its first arena battle it faced Bugs. After a hesitant start Cunning Plan managed to get under Bugs. Bugs seemed to have some control difficulties and it drove onto a grille and became immobilised.

Cunning Plan's next battle was the quickest battle in Series 1; Cunning Plan started slowly with Demolisher reversing away, but Cunning Plan suddenly charged at its small opponent and Demolisher was instantly flipped onto its back and immobilised.

As overwhelming underdogs, Cunning Plan entered the Grand Final, going up against Team Cassius' Recyclopse, Roadblock from the Bodmin Community College, Team Chaos' Robot the Bruce, the invertible T.R.A.C.I.E. and Team Cold Fusion's Bodyhammer. In the opening moments of the battle, Cunning Plan did a full 360 degree spin, upon crashing into T.R.A.C.I.E., broadside on. Next, Cunning Plan's lightness was an immediate weakness as Bodyhammer easily shunted it away. Cunning Plan fought back gallantly, but T.R.A.C.I.E. then suddenly drove up Cunning Plan's wedge. Due to T.R.A.C.I.E.'s weight, Cunning Plan couldn't reverse away, but neither could T.R.A.C.I.E. as it was beached. Both robots were immobilised, and declared out of the running, and thus ended Cunning Plan's title hopes.

Cookie

**Cookie** is a US Antweight class robot built by Cyberdyne Systems. It is a modified Viper kit equipped with a titanium front wedge and magnets. It was notable for custom pencil-crayon decals in its first iteration. The robot is effectively a sibling of Fire Ant, Cupcake, and Rainbow Barf, and all four are driven by the children of the Cyberdyne Systems team. Cookie has had some success, winning an antweight rumble and taking third place at one of its events.

## Robot History

### Kilobots XXXVII

Cookie fought fellow Viper kit DERP bot in the first match of the event. Cookie lost this fight and dropped into the loser's bracket.

In the loser's bracket Cookie faced four-wheel drive pusher Mini Turtle. The match began with Cookie facing the wall, which it drove into as Mini Turtle approached. Cookie backed away and got behind Mini Turtle but was unable to push it around, and Mini Turtle backed away. The two locked wedges, with Cookie sliding up onto Mini Turtle but backing away. Mini Turtle slowly followed Cookie as it tried to get its bearings. The two circled in the arena center for a bit, bumping one another, until Mini Turtle caught Cookie and drove it into the blue hazard. After this, Cookie backed away and accidentally drove into the pit, eliminating it from the tournament.

Cookie returned for the antweight rumble, now sporting a titanium wedge taken from Cupcake and driven by a different member of Cyberdyne Systems. Cookie survived the rumble, and was crowned the rumble winner by audience applause.

### Kilobots XL

Cookie had some modifications for this event, now boasting a titanium front wedge and magnets.

Cookie's first opponent was Viper demonstrator Chop. Cookie won this fight and advanced.

Cookie then fought horizontal bar spinner Dizzy Demise. Cookie won this fight and advanced.

Cookie next faced vertical spinner GoldRush. GoldRush won this fight, and Cookie dropped into the loser's bracket.

Already in the loser's bracket finals, Cookie's next fight was a rematch against Chop. Cookie lost this fight and was relegated to third place.

Black Ice

**Black Ice** is a robot which competed in Season 2 of ABC's BattleBots reboot. It was created by former astronaut Dan Barry. Black Ice is incredibly similar in shape to former competitor Punjar, but equipped with a flywheel-driven tethered harpoon weapon as well as two tiny vertically-spinning weapons. It also featured a very unique tertiary weapon: A magnetized bar of steel which Black Ice would drop at the beginning of the fight and use as cover from enemy weapons. Black Ice made waves early in the tournament, pulling a major upset in the qualifier round.

## Robot History

Like eleven other robots, Black Ice was forced to go through a preliminary qualifying round in order to advance to the main bracket. Black Ice's two opponents in its match were Skorpios and Bad Kitty. Immediately at the start of the match, Black Ice dropped its roadblock bar, then drive over to where Skorpios and Bad Kitty were fighting. Skorpios managed to stick itself underneath the screws and immobilize itself. With the match now down to it and Bad Kitty, Black Ice used its lower wedge to drive Bad Kitty around. Bad Kitty did however land some hits on Black Ice, damaging its flywheel and breaking its weapon. Eventually, Bad Kitty's drive motors burned out, giving Black Ice the shock upset victory by KO at 2:35. This win put Black Ice to the round of 48, where it faced the Season 1 runner-up Tombstone.

Black Ice was able to deflect a couple of minor blows from Tombstone's spinning blade, but Tombstone managed to get one good pop into Black Ice and this hit did something to the electronics of Black Ice which simultaneously killed the left drive motor and stuck the right motor into a state of permanent forward. Black Ice was barely moving around the BattleBox and Tombstone pushed Black Ice into one of the corners of the BattleBox for an easy KO at 1:01. Black Ice unfortunately was not chosen to be a wild card meaning it was eliminated from the tournament.

Crashius Clay

**Crashius Clay** (not to be confused with middleweight Smashius Clay) was a lightweight robot which competed in Seasons 3.0 and 4.0 of BattleBots. It was a wedge shaped-robot armed with a thwacking club on the back which could be exchanged for a chain flail. It did decently in battle, reaching the round of 32 in Season 3.0 but advancing no deeper in the tournament. Crashius Clay also attempted to return for Season 5.0, but encountered unknown issues and was forced to forfeit.

The robot was named after late heavyweight boxer Muhammad Ali's real name, Cassius Clay.

## Robot History

### Season 3.0

After receiving a bye, Crashius Clay went up against BuddleStomper in the final preliminary round. Crashius Clay won on a 34-11 judge's decision and advanced to the TV rounds, where it faced Vermicious Kenid. Crashius Clay won on a 30-15 judge's decision and advanced to the round of 32, where it faced Skid Mark. Skid Mark won on a 33-12 judge's decision and Crashius Clay was eliminated from the tournament.

Crashius Clay wasn't finished, however, as it participated the lightweight consolation rumble at the end of the tournament. Its unknown how well it performed but it lost overall to The Crusher and Reaper.

### Season 4.0

Despite reaching the round of 32 in Season 3.0, Crashius Clay had to go through the qualifiers again in Season 4.0. After receiving a bye, Crashius Clay went up against Speed Bump.

Crashius Clay had trouble steering and both of the robots took turns getting underneath each other, hitting, pushing, and ramming each other into the spikestrip. Crashius Clay's thwacking arm was ineffective, but made a lot of noise. The time ran out after this and Crashius Clay won on a 30-15 judge's decision. This win put Crashius Clay to the final preliminary round, where it faced General Gau.

Crashius Clay dominated the fight at the beginning, but General Gau managed to get the upper hand near the end as it was able to push Crashius Clay against the spikestrip. As the fight ended, Crashius Clay's motors caught fire and General Gau was awarded the win on a close 25-20 judge's decision. This meant that Crashius Clay was eliminated from the tournament again.

Challenger

**Challenger** was a pair of robots which competed in Series 2 and 3 of Robot Wars. Neither version of the robot achieved much success, with the Series 2 version being eliminated in the Joust Trial, and the Series 3 version, Challenger 2, reaching the second round of its Heat before losing to Panzer there.

Driver Steve Dove also controlled one of the stock robots, Eubank the Mouse, in Series 1, as well as joining Team Joint Effort in Series 6 when they entered GBH 2.

## Robot History

### Series 2

Challenger was the first to run the Gauntlet in its heat and started by trying to smash through the brick wall. After taking several attempts to break through, Challenger then got stuck on the ramp and the house robots came in to inflict damage. Challenger did however cover enough ground to just get through as Griffon failed to travel as far, putting it through in fifth place.

Next was the Trial stage where the robots were up against Matilda in the Joust, Challenger started badly by driving into the side of the ramp, Matilda then came in, pushing Challenger back past the start and cease was called, Challenger was eliminated as it had travelled -1 metre.

### Series 3

The new robot, Challenger 2, fought its first battle against Atlas. Both Atlas and Challenger drove into each other at the start, before Challenger 2 pushed Atlas around the arena. Challenger's weapon buckled the armour of Atlas. Atlas was stuck on the arena wall, and was attacked by the House Robots.

With that victory, it met Panzer. However, the design of the robots meant that Panzer kept driving over Challenger, unable to get pushing power, and Challenger's top spikes failed to hold its opponent on top. Challenger took defensive action, and fled from Panzer. After being unable to attack Panzer effectively, Challenger 2 was pushed into the pit from behind by its opponent. Whilst it was in the pit, Challenger 2 got attacked by the house robots, in particular being hit by Shunt's axe before cease was called.

### Live Events

In one battle at the Bordon Charity Event 1999, it fought Chaos 2 where it was flipped over.

Brett the Brick

## Overview

Brett the Brick is a 60lb house robot at NHRL. He is made of steel and driven by 2 powered skateboard trucks. He uses 4 VESC Motor controllers. Brett also houses an HD Camera where he serves as an in-ring camera person. Brett is powered by a 20,000 MaH Lipo at 6s.

## Robot Facts

      Brett has appeared in different forms throughout NHRL history. Original versions of Brett simply used a a cinder block. It turns out 3lb bots can destroy a cinder block. For 2020 it was decided to upgrade Brett to a steel brick that would be easier to service and have more space for batteries. Brett can run for 16+ hours on his batteries, while transmitting video. Brett also has controllable LEDs that allow the colors of his eyes and face to change. Brett has only ever been flipped once by Baby Shoes.

## Power Switch Legend

Brett is equipped with a large red power switch originally designed as a marine battery disconnect. Rumor has it that if any robot is able to shut down Brett during a match they would win the NHRL tournament for the weight class they have entered. While winning the weight class is possible, it is a certainty that any robot that can switch off Brett by switching his power switch will win $1000.00 and the match they are fighting in.

Brett was successfully deactivated for the first time during the march 15th 2021 match of NHRL. (Proof: https://youtu.be/RUbP3ogRGDM) This occurred when Fragment was hit into Brett. Considering the circumstances the driver opted to take the $1000 but forfeit their win in the name of sportsmanship.

## Overview

Bugglebots is a beetleweight event hosted in the UK and posted to YouTube.

## Format

Bugglebots follows a five-heat based elimination system to whittle the field down to the final six with a play-in rumble for every heat runner-up deciding the wild card. This play-in rumble became known as the Rumble Bee. From there, the finals play out just like the heats, eventually culminating in a one-on-one fight for the title.

In Series 2, this was expanded upon by adding a second, more brutal, qualification rumble for the sixth spot in the Rumble Bee play-in. This extra 10 robot rumble is known as the Second Chance Rumble and it is comprised of every single heat semi-finalist that series. From there, the winner would proceed to the Rumble Bee where it would fight in another rumble for a chance at the Grand Final.
