The Bola Pod is an 'Mech-snaring alternate ammunition type available for the Narc Missile Beacon.
Description[edit]
Developed by the Capellan Confederation, the Bola Pod features a small explosive charge which splits open the pod to release a series of horizontal chains, effectively creating a 'Mech sized bola to entangle limbs and perhaps cause a fall or inhibit the use of arm mounted weaponry. Prototypes were tested during Operation Guerrero in 3057. Hampered by its inaccuracy and inability to affect Combat Vehicles and aerospace fighters, the Bola Pod was discontinued shortly after the operation. [1]
