I agree. I'm not too heavy on it, but I do think they should be banned.

using weapons as wheels, to me, seems like a cheat on weight to me.

Really? We're not allowed to make a perfect robot?

Crawlers are slow, and in BW class will be extremely easy to kill.

And how does this poses a problem in a box arena ? Crawlers don't need to move in a controlled way, they just need to let the opponent go for them (that most AI do) and not get immobilized.

Nary - If that was Bumble Bee, that could be a cause for concern (for some). This is BW. I don't see why you're kicking up such a fuss.
