Explain it as discovered lostech.

Make it a consumable.

Give it the same paint as the Cicada 3F(L) so it blends in to it's surroundings.

Make it big enough to immobilize a heavy mech and take the leg off a light.

Double edged sword, your own team can trip it.

I honestly just want it for the lulz of watching guys stuck in one in the open.

They already have those, they're called the rocks on Tourmaline.

Are you aware that you just created the ultimate anti-nascar tool?

I would not be upset if it was deployed for that.

I'd prefer a snare trap.

The idea of an Atlas hanging from his leg from the HPG antenna makes me smile.

i think there need to be more consumable options. like pet tanks and vtols. simple mines would be good too (especially on fp).

Bring back long tom, but bring to QP this time.

Have it target the largest cluster of mechs ignoring team affiliations. Breaks up deathballs and helps balance the game during a stomp.

Yeah, seen a Long Tom story, legendary :)

How about Battlearmor-elementals squads as consumables? It should cost about 2-3 mln cblls, only one sucha squad for a mech. Imagine 12 mechs launching 12 squads of elementals at once. Try to Fly(ea) that.
