Both 1678 and 118 could take care of those, but 118 could also get any available landfill totes and/or build the third superstack, so unless the alliance was absolutely sure every landfill tote would be unavailable and that 1671 could produce three stacks, I would run 118.

Thanks for correcting me, I thought 118 was landfill only. Yeah, I mentioned they would run out of totes, but with 118 more than capable of using the HP station, I would put them in place of 1678 too because if they do run out of totes 118 can try and make stacks from the landfill. 118 provides a much more flexible robot, whether it's creating capped 6 stacks from the HP station or the landfill. I agree with you that running 118 over 1678 is a smarter choice in the 900/5012 can battle situation.
