Difference between revisions of "Star-shot"

'''Star-shot''' is a unit of [[ship]] ammunition meant to be fired from an [[onager]]. It consists of five flat bands of heavy iron joined in a star shape about a bundle of wooden rods. Upon hitting an enemy vessel, it will entangle the figurehead, forcing whoever might be melded to release it, and rendering further melding impossible until such a time as it is cleared. When coated with [[dragon's tears]], it will cause the bow of the target ship to catch on fire.
