The Serpentine projectile will bounce if it hits the ground. This can be used to skip through enemy formations, disrupting and killing many men. The Serpentine can be used against fortifications, but it is fairly weak in this regard. It's excellent accuracy, decent range, turning ability, and quick reload time make it an perfect choice for anti-personnel use.
