Changes: Slamtilt

Revision as of 08:22, 18 January 2017

Slamtilt was a robot that competed exclusively in Dutch Robot Wars: Series 2. It lost in Round One against Twisted Metal Evo.

Design

Slamtilt is an invertible box shaped axlebot with large tyres. Its weapon was a spiked mace attached to a long arm, meaning that it would attack opponents by spinning or swing the mace in a similar fashion to UK Grand Finalist Stinger. Its wheels however, were vulnerable as shown during its only battle.

Robot History

Dutch Series 2

Slamtilt faced Twisted Metal Evo in the first round. Initially, the two robots exchanged light blows, neither causing any real damage. Slamtilt was almost hit by Mr. Psycho but escaped, only to take a full on strike from Twisted Metal Evo's disc, buckling one of Slamtilt's highly exposed wheels. Despite this, Slamtilt was the much quicker to escape Growler's CPZ. This didn't matter in the end though, as Twisted Metal Evo was released by the house robot and struck the wheel of Slamtilt that wasn't already buckled and tore it off.

"Slamtilt has been slammed"

— Eric Corton

Slamtilt still desperately tried to move on the remaining wheel, but it was immobilised and subject to attacks from Mr. Psycho, Growler and the drop zone until Slamtilt's front panels came off.
