[HL] Barnacle Grapple
 

Needed modules:

• Weapon Mod
• HamSandWich
• Fakemeta

Description:

The Barnacle Grapple, also known as Specimen 1176, is a detached Barnacle which can be used as both a weapon and a grappling hook. Its tongue can be shot out to latch onto organic objects, such as enemies. In Opposing Force, it is learned that the Black Mesa scientists working in Sector E's Biodome Complex have been able to successfully detach a Barnacle (named "Specimen 1176") from its point of gestation, in good health, and were able to coerce it into latching onto organic materials, such as creatures, fungi and moss, and convert it as a portable weapon.
