 Aah! Just in time for the first match! Five freshly-sharpened surgical scalpels on Brut05. Alhough the Dreadnautilus has the advantage of flight, shantytowns are Brut's home turf. I doubt the mollusc's control team will be able to hide from the hog for long. Ixjuvin fucked around with this message at 16:46 on May 2, 2010 |

 A bottle of methanol on BRUT05. Those renegade engineers out in the slums have been really reckless with their EMP fields lately, and sans techmods I'll take a warthog's tusks over a nautilus's shell anyday. edit: anyone have any smokes? I'll trade you this weird electronic device I found in the wastes near the rusty antenna. No idea what it is, whoever made it couldn't spell "razor" right though. free hubcaps fucked around with this message at 04:49 on May 2, 2010 |

BRUT-05 will finish the fight before Dreadnautilus even comes close to using his weapons! Dreadnautilus has to react fast to avoid the electronically aimed weapons and his idiocy doesn't help. BRUT-05 will destroy both him and every building around.

Axe-Cop here, It is clear who will win this fight. The sea snail is stupid and can't control itself. So, the pig machine will cut off its antenna and it'll be all dumb and helpless. Or maybe the pig machine can just kill the guys controlling it, by chopping their heads off. Yea. That's a good idea. BRUT-O5

There's no way losing it's antennae would cost Dreadnautilus the fight! Even running on it's instincts it would know not to stop firing until rendered combat-inoperable. A destroyed battlefield and command team is acceptable collateral for winning the match. e: Actually the crustacean gunship just needs a seek and destroy order it should be good to go! e: Is that a We3 reference I see there

BRUT-05 has got speed, accuracy, and mammalian cleverness on its side. The Dreadnautilus, on the other hand, is little more than a big dumb target, uselessly spending ammunition into the walls in ground. There's no question here. Plus, BRUT-05 has mecha chicken legs. How can you say no to that?

 Sam: Holy father Time jumpin' headlong into a black hole while discussing politics with Ann Richards! It appears as if the very fabric of space and time have been ripped asunder, transporting us to some post-apocalyptic wasteland filled with radiation, zoological monstrosities, and the distressingly pervasive scent of corn dogs! Max: Does that mean we can blow stuff up with reckless abandon while laughing like chimps on nitrous oxide without fear of legal retribution? Sam: Can't think of a reason not to. First off, if this is not in character with the setting, feel free to tell me and I'll gladly do something less... flamboyant and more fitting. Secondly I'd like to say I registered an account today with the intention of voting in your marvelous carnival of carnage and carrion. I've been looking forward to this all month!

 Hmmmm, an intriguing first round. While I am initially drawn to Dreadnautilus, being as I requested tentacles and I am somewhat tempted to throw a pity vote to the cephalopod with giant warheads stuck in its mouth, remembering what it's kin have done to the world make me utilize my considerable mind. While Dreadnautilus appears to have the edge in firepower, I believe Brut-O5 has the overall advantage in all other aspects. While Dreadnautilus is designed to work, supposedly, on the land or in the water, its natural environment is the water, while Brut-O5' designed is towards on-land urban pacification. I believe that despite the quality of Dreadnautilus' anti-gravity system, the likely greater experience that Brut-O5 has in this battleground will, at least, stalemate it. The two key weaknesses I identify in Dreadnautilus is the fact that all of his weapons are attached to his front, while Brut-O5' weapons seem to be designed to swivel and render it able to fire without actually turning its body to do so. And of course, there is the fact that Dreadnautilus' need for radio communication renders it doubly vulnerable in the case of its antenna or command team being compromised. Perhaps it could battle on through sheer instinct should this occur, but the strange environment, ultimately, would likely confuse it more and give Brut-O5 the overall advantage. This could go either way, but I edge my vote towards Brut-O5. Though what does it say when the merciless weapon for repression is the better option than the tool of the freedom fighter... And I insist, when Brut-O5 wins, that it is given some of Dreadnautilus' surely-lost tentacles.

Six rusted cans on Brut-05, no question. It's a tactical commander with brains as well as brawn. Firepower is about equal, and the lack of brain cells in that overgrown sea slug makes it a sitting duck.

Excuse me, this is going to sound like a ridiculous question, but doesn't the Dreadnautilus require an aquatic arena to function? It doesn't appear to have any methods of land-based propulsion. Additionally, the BRUT-05 appears to be incapable of fighting in water due to its weight. How can this fight take place logically again? I'm sure I would understand it better if I didn't hail from the Featureless Gray Void.

A disheveled man crouches in the desert. His feeble attempts to ferment a handful of desert plants - the result of his having been thrown out of a non-trivial percentage of all the bars that would ever exist in history - is interrupted by the sounds of jubilation. He looks up to notice some kind of festival in the distance. How the hell did he not notice that? How convenient. But then, nobody puts things off like the Doctor.  Okay, so... so there's an animal fight? You're... making animals fight to the death or somethin'? If... if I were sober... I'd be yelling loudly and breaking things... like that long-haired fellow in that temple... Chirst, he was a nice guy... what was his name again? Wait... didn't I visit somethin' like this before?

Wait, incredibly stupid? Oh... oh bugger. poo poo, can't suppose I can take that back, can I? Only if I give up a hand? Like I'd ever bloody do that... God, the name Seanet rings bells, though... wasn't it really... really... A strange look creeps over the man's face as he pulls out a large, beat-up apparatus.

Brut-05 is clearly the superior contestant in this round. We're talking about an anti-riot unit versus a fish out of water in a South American slum. I have high hopes for the idiotic squid in the losers bracket, but here it's just outclassed.

Sam: Upon closer examination, it appears we have been transported onto the grounds of a society devoted to zoological pugilism, alcohol, and money. I believe that the only way we'll ever get back to our own, slightly less dystopic time is by betting on these nightmarish monstrosities. Max: It makes me feel all tingly inside, Sam. I think I might be in love. Sam: Upon careful examination, it would appear that Brut-05 has the edge here. It's got more stamina and it- Max: It doesn't matter! LOOK AT THE GUNS! Sam: Bu- Max: IT DOESN'T MATTER!!! Bet on Dreadnautilus! Sam: Well, I guess you could be right, little buddy. The sheer firepower does appear capable of turning Brutus into two tons of iron enriched pork before it takes more then three steps. I'll wager one zombie Lincoln's brain, slightly used, on Dreadnautilus. Max: Guns!

 I think that the seething, unwashed, and mutated masses are overlooking the Dreadnautilus' greatest strength. Even though it's huge and retarded (much like the poors that have taken up residence around the arenas), it can fly (unlike the poors that have taken up residence around the arenas.) The boar is going to be stuck on the ground and unable to get many shots at its opponent, but the Dreadnautilus is going to be able to float around behind it or even just plow through the homes of the proles with its monstrous mass. And, another plus, after the smoke clears, property in sector Z will be even cheaper, so lets get dressed and Zoofight away the night! Ravenkana, never stop.

DREADNAUTILUS! My old friend. I have seen this beest destroy and mangle many sentiet beasts and flooded buildings before, though out of angerlust or sheer stupidity I know not. BRUT-05 may have a chance if he can keep from becoming inundated with water, but DREADNAUTILUS has far superior swim capability. A sure strike from above in the murky slums!

While I am grateful for your help, I must disagree with your assertion. DREADNAUTILUS will win this battle. That shell appears to be able to withstand quite a bit of firepower, and even if the communication antennae are shot off (which they will be), the creature's survival instinct will more than surely be sufficient in developing the strategy of using its tentacles to pull the warthog right out of the mech, which will succeed easily if the shell can take a brief, yet undeniably formidable, frontal assault.

 Before the Fires of Changing came, we were but simple creatures, content to hoot and flutter in the night. Now the folly of the humans has changed us, merged us into one whole that is greater than the parts. We are...Multi-Owl. We have come to witness the further folly of the humans. All will fear us. There will be mice. Oh yes, there will be mice. Our superior meta-mind has extrapolated the events of the future. Dreadnautilus will ensnare the hydraulic parts of the BRUT-05 and demolish it with superior close-range firepower. Dreadnautilus shall reign supreme over the warthog. This Multi-Owl has seen.
