The confusing part about What Ordnance is - why is it called that ?.
Well the term is quite simple yet complicated at the same time.
Ordnance is a term used to describe military supplies, tools and equipment used in the heat of battle as a source of detterence and protection.
The term came about in Apex Legends as a way of not limiting what items fall into this category as Ordnance is a broader term including other items such as the storage of weapons, ammunition and maintenance of arsenals for further use.
Now we know that Ordnance covers a wide variety of items, Apex Legends itself does not make full use of this as the items in game are not maintenance supplies but mostly used for detterence and protection.
makes you wonder why Respawn uses that term instead of something much simpler such as throwables.
