Ok, I give, why the hammers arranged so? They aren't going to be effective at all.

It's so they balance the bot and doesn't tip forward leaving the back wheels off the ground.

Looks a bit narrow for my liking. But not too bad. I'd definitely try to mount them sideways rather than forwards, because the rear ones aren't going to see much action until the front ones fall off, and that'll probably be about 2 years.

It would probably be better if you could arrange the hammers into a shallow V shape, so more damage is done per hit. However, this would decrease the durability somewhat.

Erm...no. That's not what he meant at all. You want to make a V shape with the arms pointing almost sideways, so it forms a gap that the opponent can go into. Like what RPB has with the plows, or Reflection in Ironbot.

Don't know if I should use technos instead of WBC wheels.

Also, WBC's provide invertibility

(Image removed from quote.)
LW are barely alright with Steel skirts, this will either need to be wider or have much stronger skirts. (Maybe even Heavy plows but that's difficult)
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

Decided I might be able to widen the stabilizers and settle for titanium:

Rotate the skirts so they lie flat against the ground and you are golden.
