Once again, the Easter robot rumble was organised by Geoff Thorpe and put on by Roaming Robots, who had bought their
new House Robot to show off, but unfortunately it was not well, so had to sit out the fights in the display area.
Hell's Angel took a back seat at this event, as Satanix stepped into the limelight for its first outing since its unfortunate
exit from Portsmouth.
It was put into nearly every whiteboard it would go into, and be still running at the end, even if it was down the pit
:P
I did encounter as few problems, with the gearbox tabs snapping and the robot revving the motors but not going anywhere.
The problem was fixed with some help from Will from Team Ocean (thanks for the glue Will), and Satanix was back fighting,
and took to the last battle as one half of a clusterbot, as it was so light.
Team Hell temporarily teamed up with Team Ocean, combining Splash and Satanix to become 'UNHOLY WATER'. However, Satanix
failed for reason's still unknown. Oh well, one of those things.
The highlights of the event were the return of Robot Wars veteran Hydra, the destruction of a washing machine, and 5
heavyweights getting flipped out of the arena one after the other by the HW champion of the day, Iron Awe 5!
