User:LiamBryant/Bryant Robot Wars: Series 5

Hello all, welcome to the fifth instalment of my popular fantasy series - Bryant Robot Wars. The competition is now set in the year 2008, the year when new robots came along which went on to become successful in the certain live events that happen all over the country. Last years winner Kronic the Wedgehog is back to try and defend its title, can it go down in history by being the first competitor to be able to do so or will another robot show them how it should be done? Only one way to find out!

Everyone is welcome to vote and participate in this game, Facebook users can also take part via the Fantasy Robot Wars Facebook page and their votes will be counted here also.

Format
192 Have been split up into 16 heats for this series, each heat consists of 4 x 3 way melees. The winners from each of these fights will advance on to the second round where they will all fight each other in head to head battles in a league system. The robots will score the points for the following.
