Metal Marines perhaps?

Nobody's asking you to remember - or in fact expecting you to know when the game was released.
Thing is, knowing a rough estimate of when you played it allows us to dismiss titles released after that year from our search. The estimate doesn't have to be perfect - if neccesary, erring on the side of caution.

For example, if you played the game when you were in the primary school, then a definite cut-off date would be the year when you graduated from that school. It's that simple.

neither would i know which it ran on.

Some people remember this kind of detail, others don't. I was asking on the off chance you did, or at least could narrow it down if you remembered the operating systems your machine used.

but what i remember is its a turn based game in battle u are able to see grids on floor of how many steps u can move ur robot and the range of ur attacks

Well, that is something useful. Were those grids made from squares or from hexagons? (like this: http://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/po...ShotId,134606/)

sorry i really cant remember which year or what it ran on. the grids are squares. i remember the 3 robots u control 1 is fully blue, another should be orange i guess and the last one i cant remember. it might be a japanese game.
not metal marines. the robots are slightly bigger and they look more like mechwarrior robots

Sounds close to Front Mission:

There's also another possibility, but I'm not very sure of that one:

Maybe any of these three:
Ultrabots
Screenshots

Space Hulk
Screenshots

The third I have in mind that seems also to match your descriptions well, is The Machines made by a game company Junkyard. Though I had this game myself as a part of earlier Gold Games compilation, I wasn't able to find anywhere on the net neither it's description nor any screenshots, partly due to both the words "machines" and "junkyard" being so popular that they pop out zillions of other unrelated search results with it, even with some narrowing efforts.
Mobygames also know nothing of that game.

A simple "thats not it but thanks for the effort" would have been a better response.

It seems the fellow is insolent and not exactly grateful for our efforts to find the game name for him. Suit yourself and search the game on your own. What an arsehole...

Dude, why should we care to find this game for you, if you're being an ass about it? Oh and by the way, instead of throwing insults around, you should be reading a book on English grammar.
