Advantages and Disadvantages
Advantages Disadvantages
 * Wedges were the easiest weapons to make. They were only as expensive as the chassis.
 * Wedges were very useful in conjunction with another weapon, usually a flipper or an axe.
 * In the early wars, wedges were very effective finishing weapons, as few robots had self-righting mechanisms.
 * With the invention of srimechs, wedges became severely ineffective on their own.
 * In the Seventh Wars, robots with only wedges were banned because of the new rule stating that all robots needed a moving weapon.
