Crab

Any device designed for hull-breaching I can't help but regard with an aire of disgust. Call me old-fashioned. Call me staunch. But steeds fight steeds and coves fight coves. Meddle with the order and you pave a slope toward atrocity. I've seen it too many times to be shifted on the matter. Employed primarily by pirates (and the occasional deranged bounty hunter), the Crab will cling and bore. Simple, crude, yet effective. A staple of the boarding party. While most breachers show little discrimination in hole placement, true enthusiasts will often employ a spectral scanner to bring an element of surgery to their craft, disabling electrics, pneumatics, or even life-support with a well-placed prick to the belly of their victims.
