Storm Force

Storm Force was a three-wheeled silver barrel shaped robot that singularly competed in Series 5 of Robot Wars. The robot featured a powerful flipper capable of lifting a small car, and a sharp axe capable of chopping bricks in half. However, these impressive weapons were not seen as it was defeated in its only battle by reigning champion Chaos 2.

Series 5
Storm Force had an unlucky draw in Series 5 as it was up against the two-time and reigning UK Champions Chaos 2 in Round 1. Storm Force was on the back foot straight away in its battle, as Chaos 2 flipped it numerous times, but the barrel shape meant that Storm Force kept rolling back onto its wheels. It then started to gush smoke and was flipped into Matilda's flywheel. Chaos 2 then flipped it again and Storm Force stopped moving, it was then flipped onto the Pit of Oblivion which Chaos 2 then lowered by pressing the pit release button, sending Storm Force out of the competition.

Outside Robot Wars
In 2007, Storm Force was sold to John Findlay of Team Roaming Robots, where it was brought out of retirement in a Robot Rumble, managing to defeat Dantomkia along the way. However, Findlay had too little time to take Storm Force as a project, so drivers such as Tom Kane and WJ Dijkstra took turns in fighting with it instead. By the end of 2008, Storm Force was sold once more, with its new driver joining Team Bud along with Jason Marston with a newly improved Thor and Shane Swan from Team S-tec with his newest machine Envy.
