You said + 1 to the front and rear. Which gives the bots base armour 6, as your taking two points off. and you gave +1 to bot front and back weapons (Interchangeable counts too) Which gives you a base armour of 4.
I would not worry too much, with good control, I doubt many spinners will take advantage

No. It doesn't work that way- it's 9 for those areas, 7 for everything else. That's the way it's always worked. Otherwise, what's the point in having a base stat of 8?

What.
No, individual parts you give armour bonuses to just go to those categories.
So
- -1 to front
- -1 to front weaponry (they are different)
- -1 to rear
- -1 to rear weaponry (again, different)
So Lian is right, here. You would have 4 body armour.

Huh. Change of plans, I'm having 8 all over. 4 is way, way, too weak for the HW Division.

Hmm...
Front Wedge = piece one
Back Wedge = piece two
Front Weapon = piece three
Back Weapon = piced four
I'll let the fact that the back weapon set-up has multiple configurations since I had a similar concept with Tali'Zorah, but still were talking 4 separate components so that would logically lead to a -4 reduction. The thread is still open if you want to modifiy it.

It's now been updated so that it has no bonuses, but 8 all over instead. -4 armour is too big a price to pay for only one point of additional protection.

Nuh uh, no changing the stats, the sign up deadline has passed. It's only open cause I'm waiting for Spatula to correct an illegal bot.

Uh, excuse me, but you don't run the tournament, so you have no right to tell Lian when his deadline is. And it was 14 hours ago.
Regardless, we COULD have been mean to you and let you go on with your shitty 4 armour. But we're trying to be nice here. As we are with Spatula.

I've been caught out by that twice now, once with Frequency and twice with Braveheart. Admittedly, if I'd known exactly how that rule worked, I might not have done that.
