Thanks! And yeah, these are about 80mm I think, slightly larger than the old machine's but that's not necessarily a bad thing overall.

The reason it was to be invertible is more because the lifter was supposed to be like Storm II's, just as a compliment to the pushing power rather than a main weapon in its own right - the design would never have been able to self right properly, it would just lift robots off the ground so I could get under and push them about a bit. Not just that, but I'd need a secondary battery for it too, which is more weight and I'm not sure how close I'll be to the limit anyway with a heavy drive, heavy scoop and thick armour...

Not ruling it out just yet, but it might be something more for the second version of this machine. Was toying with the idea of a small spinner instead to rack up a few damage points in my favour but that's probably just going to stay an idea at this point.
