"A mammoth of a robot! Can any robot match the sheer size of Double O?"
Jonathan Pearce's in-game commentary

Double O was a heavyweight competitor robot in the game Robot Wars: Arenas of Destruction. It was a low dome shaped robot, made of kevlar and with a powerful disc. It had no srimech but two police lights as extras. It can be fought in the first two tournaments available, and in many of the others as well.

Components

  • Body: Low dome
  • Locomotion: 4 x medium inner foam filled tires
  • Power: Kestral K34 "Goliath" 12V sealed lead acid battery
  • Drive: 4 x Puturba 400W 12V DC motors
  • Weapons: Big flywheel
  • Armour: Kevlar
  • Extras: 2 x police lights

Strategies

Using Double O

Stay away from powerful lifting or flipping weapons, as Double O has no srimech. Most attacks have difficulty due to the kevlar armour, but flywheels, discs and crushers should be avoided. The flywheel should be kept facing the opponent as much as possible for easy damage.

Against Double O

A lifting weapon, particularly the large flipping arm is the ideal weapon to battle Double O with. It especially works well when attacking Double O from the side. It can also be rammed into the walls with enough force to tip it over, although it has a low centre of gravity which can make this tactic difficult. The armour can easily be destroyed by using spinning or crushing weapons, and its wide body shape hinders its attempts to escape when caught by a House Robot.
