A Wammer is a [[Wedge (robot type)|Wedge]] made of, or covered with, weapons, and therefore a [[Rammer]]/[[Wedge (robot type)|Wedge]] hybrid. The design is to force opponents on the wedges, and in the weapons. Notable Wammers are [[Devil II]], [[Psyco Sweeper]], [[Event Horizon 2]], [[Agony]] and [http://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/70050coldfront.jpg Cold Front].
