Wait...waait... i`ve got it! not stimpack, but steampack, a D-gum module for the comm that gives a bust of uncontrollable speed, or shoots a jet of superheated steamy suff (making it a flamer that does not bur things.. and perhaps has longer range?)... or just a steampunk tipe model for vanity purposes... or a whole new class of slow deployable...things... so you can "deploy the steampacks" to the front... mobile power sources that need to deploy to produce E OR to rezz and repair or both, or something else like , like an M18 Claymore mine
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M18_Claymore_mine or,or the "steam" could be like a nanite cloud providing area repair like an anti-outlaw
or a gnat-sized transport unit that can only transport small bots but allows the to shoot at stuff
or a kind of smokescreen generator to help even the odds against superior micro
there is soo much potential for steampacks , steam, steamyness and steaming around in this game
Note: steam for the steamlord….
the lobster uprising is coming they will ally with the chickens rise from the depths, they will be blue and pink and delicious, only the steam can save us
