Spinal Vent Lance

Whenever you fire this Weapon (including separate attacks generated by the Volley-X special rule), the attacking Group gains X Spikes.

Before assigning Weapons to targets, you may double the Damage value of this Weapon. If you do, this becomes a High Power Weapon for this activation and each attack roll of 6 causes that attacking Ship to lose this Weapon’s unmodified Damage value in hull points. Only one Weapon per Ship may benefit from this rule per activation.

Each of this Weapon’s criticals reduces the Energy/Kinetic save used against that hit by X.
