SolsticeShape: See picture. Colour: Chartreuse. The top is dark turquoise. Weight: 49kg Speed: 7mph Armour: The shell is made of a 4mm Ti/V alloy, so it is very resilient, but not indestructible by a long shot. Dimensions in CM: 65 x 65 x 15 Drive: Uses two S28-400 MagMotors, geared 3:1 and set to 36v. It has 4 Vulkalon tires which poke up through holes in the top, making it invertible. NiCad packs power the Mags. Ground Clearance: 2mm Weapons: The shell spins at 2000rpm, and has several hardox diamond-tipped teeth to rip and tear through most armours. It is run by an Etek motor powered by NiMH cells. Srimech: Doesn't need one; it's invertible. Strengths: Very destructive, invertible, tough armour. Weaknesses: Wheels exposed to axes, crushers. Slow. BIO: Poor attempt at a MW FBS, though people didn't seem to notice. ;D Battle Record = N/A Time of Activity = December 2006 - March 2008 Notable Achievements = None

Solstice 2.0Shape: Bulging cylinder. Colour: Same as before. Speed: 8mph Weight: 50kg Armour: The ring is made of 7mm titanium. The top and bottom panels are 6mm polycarb. Drive: 2 S28-400 MagMotors @ 24v. Gives 9HP Power: 2 NiCad Battlepacks Motivation: 4 aluminium hubs with urethane tires for grip. Ground Clearance: 7mm Turning Circle: 0 Dimensions in CM (LxWxH): 65 x 65 x 16 Weaponry: A 24kg titanium spinning ring with 4 teeth (see pic for placement). It's powered by 2 more S28-400 MagMotors and gets to 3000rpm in about 3 seconds. It dishes out about 44kJ per hit. Due to the fewness of batteries used in the entire machine, it should fit within the weight limit. Srimech: Invertible. Strengths: Extremely destructive for its size, near impossible to stack, very tough ring armour, very good acceleration. BIO: Not just a refreshening. ;D However it's now been given a huge redesign. No more bulgyness! Battle Record = 3 wins, 1 loss (3-1) Time of Activity = March 2008 - February 2010 Notable Achievements = Champion of Robot SMASH Middleweight Championship!

Solstice 3.0Shape: An invertible cog/gear shape, very slightly angled, and extruded outward in the middle. Colour: Same as before: chartreuse ring, dark teal top and bottom. Weight: 54kg Drive: 2 S28-150s @ 26.4v, geared 9:1 for better control but less acceleration. Power: 3 packs of 8 M1 A123 Lithium-Ion Cells Motivation: 4WD, go-kart style tires and aluminium CNC hubs. Armour: The spinning ring is all 20mm Titanium/Vanadium alloy, while the top and bottom are 3mm Ti/V. Inner bulkheads are 10mm aluminium. All vital components are shock mounted to protect itself from shock damage, either from itself or other weapons. Ground Clearance: 5mm, 10mm under the lower blades. Turning Circle: ... Dimensions in CM (LxWxH): 70 x 70 x 16 Weaponry: A 30kg spinning ring with 8 Hardox teeth in 2 rows of 4, one row on top and another on the bottom, powered by a LEM130 motor @ 36v. It spins at 1000rpm, gets there in around a second, and can dish out 18kJ. It's not too overkill, but it is very fast to spin up after hits. The reason the ring is edged like a cog is because there are some cheeky buggers who can miss the teeth, which are the main damage dealers. In this instance, anything that hits any of the edges gets about 12kJ impacted into them, and at 1000rpm it's very possible to get spun away, rather than being ground into. Srimech: Invertible. ROUGH WEIGHT CHECKWeapon (including weapon power) = 36kg Drivetrain = 5kg Non-ring armour (including shock mounts) = 9kg Other bits = 4kg TOTAL WEIGHT = 54kg BIO: Well you knew a Solstice redesign was coming...didn't expect it to be this though, did you? Edgier and tougher than ever before, it's here to take a chunk out of your season play! Battle Record = 0 wins, 0 losses Time of Activity = February 2010 - present Notable Achievements = None Theme song = "Seasons" by Sevendust
