== Background Information ==

; What's special about it?
: Almost nothing. =) It had the shortest time from conception to release of all my bots - I just whipped it up while waiting for some [[Diamond]] test beds to run, then tuned it a little.

; How competitive is it?
: It's at #5 in the [[melee]] [[MicroBot]] rankings. But compared to the bots it emulates ([[HawkOnFire]], [[Shiz]]), it's not very competitive at the moment.

== Strategy ==

; How does it [[:Category:Movement|move]]?
: A really simple [[Minimum Risk Movement]]. Tries to stay far from other bots, weighted by energy, tries not to be targeted, and has some randomness from its own recent locations.

; How does it [[:Category:Targeting|fire]]?
: [[Head-On Targeting]] =)

; How does the [[Melee|melee]] strategy differ from [[One on One|one-on-one]] strategy?
: It doesn't, actually.

; How does it select a target to attack/avoid in [[melee]]?
: Fires at the closest bot.

; What does it save between rounds and matches?
: Nothing!

== Additional Information ==

; Where did you get the name?
: It's named after Blitzkrieg Bat, which was my favorite [http://www.toyarchive.com/BattleBeasts/Figures/FiguresList.html Battle Beast] as a kid. They're tiny little animalish warrior action figures. I loved those things!

; Can I use your code?
: Yes, it's released under the [[RWPCL]].

; What's next for your robot?
: Not sure!

; Does it have any [[White Whale|White Whales]]?
: Sure, [[HawkOnFire]], [[Shiz]], and [[MeleeSprout]] all kick its butt.

; What other robot(s) is it based on?;
: [[HawkOnFire]] (conceptually, I never looked at HoF's code), [[BrokenSword]], and [[Diamond]].
