*spots ballast*

You sure you can't use that weight in better ways ?

If the wedges are THAT bad, then I guess a ballast wouldn't hurt.

Nice to see you building again, Vert. =) It doesn't look too bad, but I might want to try improving the wedges somehow. Seems this would suffer from Bounty Hunter Syndrome, and that would undermine the whole bot, I think.

Exactly what I thought, and it did. The only reason I'm using ballast is because somehow it makes the wedges on par with Mutiny 2, which seems pretty decent for a MW VS

And the main reason I've touched RA2 is because finally I have the time. Eruption's been a pain ever since Worthing and only now is it actually 'finished'. :P
