Trivia:
- Hog of War was GF93's entry into N00b Warz 3.
- It was GF93's second Tournament entry, which competed in a First Round Melee Shibby (From NateF), WOLF (From Scrap Daddy), and Rust Monster (From Jack Daniels).
- It was the first Pig-Themed robot to have been entered into a RA2 Tournament with multiple people entering.
- The idea for the robot's theme came about whilst GF93 laid out the weaponry. He thought that the spikes, when mounted onto the Flipping Arm, somewhat resembled a Warthog's tusks, so he decided to continue the theme from there.
- It was originally going to have a generic n00by theme to it, but GF93 knew this would be the case for most competitors, so he created a custom Paintjob for it, to compliment its theme, as well as to stand out from the rest of the robots on display.

Strengths:
- Powerful Flipping Weaponry- in testing, it was capable of quite easily overturning most of the Stock Heavyweights, including the infamous EMERGENCY.

- Low Ground Clearance at Front (Thanks to the Wedge setup), so is good at getting underneath opponents.
- Reasonably Fast.
- Sloped Sides deflect Spinning Weapons, which work especially on Horizontal Saw Weapons.

- Basic Self-Righting Capablities.
- Above-Average Battery Power for robots in the Tournament.
Weaknesses:
- Weak turning speed.
- Somewhat Fragile Armour.
- Exposed Wheels.
- Weaponry can make the robot jump, potentially allowing sneaky opponents to get under it.
