A Ram is a type of heavy weapon that is usually mounted on the prow of a spelljamming ship in the Spelljammer campaign setting.[1]
Description[]
Ramming is a common tactic during combat in space, where a ship purposely steers into an opposing vessel with the intent of damaging or breaking up the enemy ship.[2] To maximise the damage dealt to the enemy vessel, while minimising the damage taken by their own ship, a ship's captain will mount a reinforced or armored ram on the prow of their ship. Over time, various types of specialised rams have been developed.
