Ben Mitchell has a reputation beyond repute

As far as launching goes, our team saw a lot of possibilities with this one,

Consider:

Launching the box from the enemy zone to yours
Launching a box to knock down an enemy stack
Launching a box to knock down the middle pillars

Pneumatic pistons might be a good bet for a launcher, the large bore cylinders have a lot of "umph" (which is based on stroke size as well as bore radius)
