English term or phrase: smoking crater
If it weren't for these damn neural implants, you'd be a smoking crater by now!

Frase que un soldado espacial de malos modales pronuncia en un juego de batallas espaciales al ser molestado.

Spanish translation:te habrïas hecho pedazos/te habrïas hecho trizas/te habrïas fundido
Explanation:
If the speech of the guy is not the most serious one, then this option might be of help: "ESTARIAS FUNDIDO"
No imagino a nadie diciendo: "Oye! te transformaräs en un cràter humeante".
"MONTON DE CENIZAS" me sigue pareciendo muy refinado, dada la circunstancia.
"TE HABRIAS HECHO POLVO", me parece mucho màs pertinente. Y porqué no, "TE HABRIAS HECHO TRIZAS/PEDAZOS"...? O, "TE HABRIAS HECHO LENA"...
O en su defecto, "ESTARIAS HECHO PEDAZOS"...
Suerte.
