Depending upon how much you intend to move around during the match (and whether you retract your wings during movement) you are tar risk of herding more than one game piece, which will get you a penalty.

Woops. Looked like I've been unconsciously ignoring the word vertical. Thanks, Eric!

Hint: they don't move with the wide side in front. It's the long side, always the long side. See the wheels?

Also, since the extensions are subject to normal bumper rules, you are free to have some bumper gaps in your extension wings-- using the saved weight for other things, and/or moving that weight further outboard.
