House Orlock Harpoon Launcher[1b]

Harpoon Launchers are a kind of Primitive Weapon which is useful for capturing or immobilizing large targets.[1a]

Harpoon Launchers that are used by House Orlock are designed for use by House outriders escorting ore convoys across the Ash Wastes of Necromunda. It is ideal for taking down enemy vehicle crew while leaving their vehicle undamaged and ripe for capture, or for setting lines at head-height across a road to behead the exposed crew of bikes and light vehicles. As many Orlock gangers are veterans of such expeditions into the Ash Wastes, they greatly value the Harpoon Launcher, as much as a status symbol as a useful weapon to take to a gang fight.[2]
