What is a pile bunker

What is a pile bunker
I google searched it and nothing was found @ answers.com for one. This was just a random question nagging me but I keep seeing in games weapons that say "pile bunker" in which you have to get really close to score a hit. I guess it's like a stake being drove into the body.

Answer

I believe it may be a bunker built of stacked logs or concrete blocks.
Answer

It is a bunker composed of a pile of precast concrete blocks, designed to be easily assembled on the front lines to bolster a trench line.
Answer
A pile bunker, as a weapon, is a weapon worn on the forearm, and is used to inhance the strength and damage of one's own punch in various ways; such as just merriely adding weight behind the punch, to adding spikes to impale, to actually being mechanical, etc etc
Answer
The most consistent definition I could find, at least as a weapon, is that it's a sort of stake attached to a hydraulic pumping mechanism (like a piston I guess), which is used to forcefully pierce through tough materials. I haven't seen any sign of it in real life, and don't know why it's called a "pilebunker", but variants of it are apparently mildly popular in video games as weapons of the "excessively awesome" variety, particularly games centered around giant robots and other durable combatants.
