Proposed by Aga Mbadi, the Z.O.T.Tournament was an experiment testing new military hardware, where battle bots were tested against live soldiers. Later the Z.O.T.Tournament became a combat between competing teams. The Z.O.T.T is used the LADDER to let enemies of LADDER eliminate each other. In it's latest incarnations, it has become a Exo-Armor showcase for Megacorporations and regional Governments as well as a place for rogue geniuses to attract the attention of powerful financial backers by demonstrating their new technologies. Many Alt-Cults have rivalries with ech other as they vie for ZOTT dominance by fielding the most powerful war-weapons. Biological and mechanical.
