Medium Harpoon Gun

The Medium Harpoon Gun is a medium weapon with two firing modes. The first fires the harpoon without the rope, which simply deals damage. The second fires it with the rope, which can grapple enemy ships. Grappling enemy ships is a prerequisite to boarding. The Medium Harpoon Gun is the same as the light version, except it has twice the range and its projectiles travel significantly faster.
