Chickens From Outer Space

**Chickens From Outer Space** (also known as **I Survived The Shocking Revenge of Chickens From Outer Space**) was a joke antweight created by Canadian/British team, Team Picus Telerobotics that appeared in AWS 43 and AWS 53. The robot was a replacement to the team's other robot S. D. F., which had technical issues. The robot was built over night and could not drive backwards. It was also gifted a walker clusterbot by Dave Lawrie.

## Robot History

### AWS 43

   In the first round, Chickens From Outer Space faced E.B.O.G.. The main body of Chickens From Outer Space span around wildly as it attempted to ram and assault E.B.O.G., whilst chickens fell off. As E.B.O.G. turned around, it then rammed Chickens From Outer Space from the side, pushing it out. E.B.O.G. then turned around shunting one of the chickens off before toppling the walkerbot.

In the Loser's Bracket second round, Chickens From Outer Space fought against Flint. The fight started with the walker cluster being toppled as Chickens From Outer Space slowly drove around, being battered by the ramming attacks of Flint. Flint then got underneath and flipped Chickens From Outer Space over. Despite being victorious, Flint, under no pressure, span around and then drove off the arena, unintentionally giving Chickens From Outer Space a win.

In the Loser's Bracket third round, Chickens From Outer Space faced Anticyclone. As soon as the two robots made impact, the chickens on the front of Chickens From Outer Space were blown to pieces with fur flying all over the place. Another impact resulted in both robots ricocheting across the arena with Chickens From Outer Space flying off the arena and Anticyclone becoming wedge by a wheel. In the end only the walker survived as a result, the Chicken From Outer Space went on through.

In the Loser's Bracket Fourth Round, Chickens From Outer Space faced Delirious. Chickens From Outer Space failed to move as the slow moving shoved Chickens From Outer Space backwards before turn to the side and shoving it off, with chickens falling off. Delirious then pushed the walker cluster off soon after before "cleaning" up the arena by pushing all the chickens off.

### AWS 53

In the first round, Chickens From Outer Space faced Altoids. Neither robot made much contact as they both struggled to get a footing around the arena, circling each other wildly. However, as the fight drew on, Chickens From Outer Space lost a wheel due to its own decorative chicken getting stuck on the robot. Altoids soon rammed Chickens From Outer Space across the arena and slammed it against the side walls. Altoids then pushed Chickens From Outer Space onto the broken wheel where it became stuck and was being counted out, but Chickens From Outer Space freed itself as Altroids then attempted to push it off the arena. As Altroids span around wildly, it then lost a wheel and started spinning in circles. Chickens From Outer Space, also spinning, spun slightly off the arena and was unable to move and thus was counted out.

In the Loser's Bracket second round, Chickens From Outer Space faced Ye Olde Axe of 6 Wheels. Ye Olde Axe of 6 Wheels slammed into Chickens From Outer Space, raining down hammer blows as it pushed it around the arena. Ye Olde Axe of 6 Wheels then shunted Chickens From Outer Space against the side wall as it continued to hammer down, lifting it up slightly before pushing Chickens From Outer Space across the side wall and towards a pit where Chickens From Outer Space became stuck, then allowing Ye Olde Axe of 6 Wheels to give ita nudge and eventually out.
