move all remaining groundhog mercenaries to the front lines. Have sheep troopers squadrons A and B flank the cows. They're using DC-17 hoof blasters.

Because it's a psychological tactic that preys on personalities prone to gambling behavior higher than average. So while you're okay saying no, dumbfuck Mikey over there's gonna feel real sad if he doesn't acquire that new chrome BLUE gun skin for his fake gun collection.

CoD dropped the loot box system with MW19 for a Fortnite shop. These are just people that want to play $15 of virtual currency for a gun skill and an emote.
