    Area denial weapons. The name comes from the Old English “calcatrippe”, meaning “heel-trap”, which itself came from the French “chause-trape”, or “shoe-trap”.

    Their design ensures that they will always land with one spike pointing up, so they can be scattered in the path of advancing enemies to slow them down or injure their feet.
