In the early nineties, a coragous special effects wiz named Marc Thorpe contained a field of dreams different from any the world had seen before: not by deceasted ballplayers, or by magical wizards, but by remote controlled robots, armed with weapons like steel teeth, saw blades, mallets, armed with a metal exoskeleton, and everything in between, fighting in a booby trapped arena (sounds tempting). A dedicated community of robot hobbyists quickly planned to form this novel invention, but the gearheads passions were soon to be tested.
