Awaiting Video of the battles

I'm sorry, I had hoped to post a video of some of the battles.
However, the person who shot the video has so far failed to supply a copy :-(

After the Battle

Here are pictures of the battle scared robots...

Both Rex and K1 side by side...

 And a rear view of Rex...

As you can see, the primary weapon on Rex is missing!

During one of the battle rounds, the opponent requested a "maintenance" recess to carry out repairs. However, the opponent decided that due to the amount of damage, the weapon was no longer effective. So they removed it!

K1 has suffered some dents in the amour shielding, but remains fully operational. This damage was not caused by Rex, but by getting over excited and reversing off the table in the later battle rounds!

The overall result was that I lost, just. If my driving skills had been a little bit better I would have won :-(

Fight Night

The contenders...

Rex

This is Rex, the robot of my opponent...

K1
And this is my robot. All set and ready to win the day :-)

Both Rex and K1 side by side...

Which one do you think is going to win?
