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].

A Wammer is a [[Wedge (robot type)|Wedge]] that uses static weapons either on the wedge itself, or on top of the wedge. One may also build a wedge shaped front out of components/weapons. The goal of the bot is to force opponents on the wedges, and in the weapons, where the weapons slowly deal damage. Notable Wammers are [[Devil II]] and [[Devil III]], [[Psyco Sweeper]], [[Event Horizon 2]], [[Agony]] and [http://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/70050coldfront.jpg Cold Front].

Note that a standard rammer (with a non-angled weapon array) with a wedge added is NOT a wammer. To be a wammer, you have to use both a wedge-shaped front and weapons either on it, forming it, or on top of it.

Most often slower than rammers, they are also MUCH more common in DSL than in Stock.

+
* Poor offensive power

+
* Dependant on wedge quality
