Bar Shot

Ammo for the cannon that is added right after the gunpowder. Hitting an enemy's mast with bar shot will damage them, leaving the ship immobile until repaired. A large ship takes 7 successful hits, and a small ship requires 5, to de-mast. Bar shot can be found in the same box as chain shot, separate from the main supply boxes. Bar shot has a maximum effective range of 400 meters.
