  Speargun
  Notes: This is a weapon normally used for hunting underwater. The spear is usually barbed, and a rope or elastic thong usually
  connects the projectile to the gun. In that case, range is limited by the length of the rope. It is also often used by troops that operate
  underwater. This weapon, like crossbows, is fired using the Early Firearms skill.
