That was great!

I should have taken pictures of the slow deterioration of assailant ending with the flipper taped up and the receiver and battery hanging out the top!

Hoppefully next time I should have a robot that can make it to the end.

AA, what happened?

I was amazed today, firstly by the number of Ants. And secondly by the quality of the new ants.

I hope everyone had a good time and will be back for AWS34.

(The numbers next to the fights are the order they took place in, to help with editing the video)

Non-spinner results will take a bit longer...

Thanks to everyone that came along. Special thanks to all those that helped out. Congrats to all the winners. Hope you all enjoyed the "trick or treat" cake - did anyone notice the beetroot in the chocolate cake? :o

Lost & Found:
Large extension lead on blue reel

That was awesome! Battles were epic, great atmosphere, everyone was great. Can't believe old school anti-depressant came fifth, same components as the original. Thanks to everyone there it was a blast. :)

At my Reading pit stop,

Thanks to team beligerant for a great AWS, one of the smoothest ever. Congratulations to Joey for his first AWS win, well deserved.

I hope the new members of the antweight community will join us for the next event and keep the hobby growing.
TEAM GEEK!
