Outside if the Weapons books.....looking for a write up on the bola throwing weapon. Any help?

If they're not in the ancient weapons books then I'd check the books covering Austrailia for Rifts and After the Bomb.

Rifts SA2 should have a type of bola and HU:AU has energy bolas called clippers.

I never liked bolas. It is such a strange weapon. That said, it is a very effective weapon (according to the rules).

Yin-Sloth, p. 43 lists W.P. Bola wrote: ... 1D4 damage, but a successful strike is usually used to knock a weapon out of an opponent's hand or entangle his legs. .. While entangled, the victim loses initiative, is -1 to strike or parry, -6 to dodge and speed is reduced by 80%. All penalties are enforced until the character gets himself untangled/cut loose; it takes 1D4 melee actions to get untangled.
