A quick YouTube search (don't do it!) told me all I need to know about this phrase, but what I can't figure out is the context here:
Как-то сунулись они сюда – да по сопатке и схлопотали, гы.
And a little more context:
Наши набеги на руины и башню - это здорово, но ты глянь, чё у нас под боком! На севере есть Костяной холм, там засели мертвяки. Как-то сунулись они сюда – да по сопатке и схлопотали, гы. Сейчас с холма своего и не вылазят.
What exactly is going on up there on Bone Hill?
