Launchers

are a unique type of weapon that shoot Traps, which disappear over time and deal great amounts of damage when an enemy touches it. Launchers have reduced recoil compared to cannons. Regardless, all Trap launchers behave the same.
== Types of Launchers ==
*Normal Launchers: This Launcher features a small rectangular base with an upside-down trapezoid at the end. This Launcher shoots tiny Traps that can be used as a defense and close-range ammunition. The Trapper, Overtrapper, Auto Trapper and Tri-Trapper bear this. The Defender and the Trapper Dominator use this type of Launcher too.
*Mega Launchers: This Launcher lays bigger and more durable Traps, with extra penetration and damage, but with slightly less speed. The upgraded Traps allow stronger defenses and longer-lasting walls. Only Mega Trappers use these launchers. This is the only Launcher that shoots traps that are the same size as the tank's body.
*Medium Launchers: Although these Launchers look the same as Mega Launchers, the Traps they fire are about half as big. Their Traps move slightly slower than normal. This Launcher is only seen on the Gunner Trapper, along with the two upgraded Gunner cannons.
