Harpoon Missile [2nd Ed Space Marine/3rd Ed EPIC]

Unlimited Range, auto-hit. Makes the perfect "sniper" weapon. Target takes
a armor save at a -2 which is respectable but not great. If the target is
a titan which fails the armor save then the firing takes control of the titan.
Roll at the end of the turn and the missile falls out on a '1'. It is one
shot and does not ignore void shields.

Hope that clears things up a bit!
