You're gonna find that those wedges are not up to par. I recommend switching to DDT wedges on the HW.


For once the mods did something right

They seem to work fairly well here. On the MW the wedges are on par with its DDT wedge equivalents, but I may change them.

DP

Some pop-up I may use in Enigma AI if he gives me a team;



Drive's static, 16 razors; 4 per DDT. Usually gets two hit KOs, but it's better than that 20 razor pop-up near the beginning of my showcase, with pretty decent wedges (to my surprise; it can outwedge some bots like Seism 13 and R4 but not Surgical Strike or SCV4 Hunter Killer Tank).



Both matches took 7 seconds, to my surprise.

Cool, what's the 140cm extender supposed to be for though?
I'd try and protect the wedge extenders more though if I were you.

The 140 extender sort of acts as one of R4's ears, and surprisingly effectively.

The wedges usually fall prey to attack after the ramplates, but I guess they need more protection. Should I remove a razor from each DDT for some protection?

Yeah, round extender on the end and then the RADs and Zteks on those.

Is this not literally a complete clone of Neglected Waterbug... just with RADs instead of ramplates? Honestly you even used the same exact servo/tribar setup...
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.
