You're getting a bit better sparkey. You don't need such a large chassis, and put some extenders on the tribars with attachment points facing down.

As for the story, why not hear about the retards that **** with GTM members.

Use hp zteks for drive. Get more weapons on by putting extenders on the tribar's APs, and adding the weapons on the extenders.

A Supervolt works fine on that, and you can easily use a single snapper for both plows if you eFFe them. Again, shrink the chassis and you can easily go under the weight limit. Just add a set of spikes to fill up the remaining weight.

You wasted weight on the extenders on the extenders on the tribars as well as the Snapper2. If you've been experimenting enough, you'll notice that there's another attachment point on the Snapper II. Use that for the drive.

Ehh... as much as possible don't use Y connectors on popups. That was a mistake I did on Trojan Horse and that's one of the reasons why my weapon rack gets torn off easily by HSes. Stack the batts and put them in the middle, with a DDT on each side. Use DDTs for the wedges as well so you can self-right easier. Then make the wedge shallower so you can add armor.

If the plows on the snapper, I'm not too sure that's an effective use of weight that could be used on wedges.

Looks pretty underpowered, and may be unstable as heck. Also, when the heck are the back weapons gonna get used?

Looks pretty underpowered (it has a lot of power), and may be unstable as heck (yep). Also, when the heck are the back weapons gonna get used? they do most of the damage to tell you the truth
