#Deepest sword mod series
Loi-Pattern Burning Blade - What started as a series of malfunctioning power swords from the disreputable Clovis Munitorum became a new weapon type after users discovered the faulty field conduits raised the temperature of the blade to over 600 degrees.
Wielded together, the blades are perfectly matched and provide the champion with an expert defence and attack.
Honour Blades - Presented to champions of the Ultramarines Chapter, Honour Blades are a matching Broadsword and Poniard power blade set. Ingelldina Pattern - A commonly used variant of power sword soley utilised by the Adeptus Astartes. Each Frost Blade is considered amongst the most prized weapons of the Chapter and is crafted by a master Iron Priest. Frost Blade - A Frost Blade is a master-crafted melee weapon in the form of a sword, axe, Chainsword or any other type of bladed close combat weapon that is used exclusively by the warriors of the Space Wolves Chapter of Space Marines and is equivalent in many ways to a Power Weapon of similar design. Those rough riders who are able to acquire a cavalry sabre often carry it as a secondary weapon, switching from their hunting lance if any enemies are left standing after the initial charge. Though less nimble than its counterparts, the heavy blade is perfectly suited for cutting down enemies while charging by on a swift mount. Cavalry Sabre - Favoured by many Rough Rider Imperial Guard sergeants and officers, the cavalry sabre is heavier than most Departmento Munitorum issue power swords, with a broad blade and, consequently, a somewhat larger power field. Baal Pattern Mk IV - A modern variant commonly utilised by the Blood Angels Space Marine Chapter. A power weapon can still be used as an ordinary melee weapon of its type should its power source become inhibited or damaged. When his weapon or fist itself suddenly flares to life in a halo of electricity, it becomes truly inspiring - or terrifying - depending on which side of the charge you are on. The sight of a transhuman angel of vengeance charging into battle is intimidating in its own right. In theory, any weapon can be upgraded to a power weapon given the necessary technology, though in practice there is a traditional array in use by the Adeptus Astartes. Like all power weapons, a power sword projects a disruptive energy field along the blade of the weapon, allowing it to slice armour or strike with explosive impact. They come in a variety of shapes and styles, and entire schools are devoted to their mastery. In the hands of a skilled swordsman, they combine a deadly offence with a nearly impenetrable defence. Often the signature weapons of elite warriors, power swords are perhaps the most dangerous of melee weapons in the galaxy. This efficient design makes them popular with officers regardless of whether they specialise in close combat or not. Elegant but effective, power swords allow the user greater attack options and defensive responses than many other varieties of power weapon. Therefore, power swords are typically reserved for high-ranking members of the Adeptus Astartes or other powerful and influential members of the Imperium, such as Inquisitors, Commissars or Astra Militarum officers. Power weapons require great investments of time and rare materials to produce. Entire specialised styles of combat have been designed around the expansive number of variants found across the galaxy and beyond. Like a common sword, they allow the user greater attack options and defensive responses than many other melee weapons. 
Power swords are elite weapons and a sure sign of high status in the Imperium many military officers favour them as a prestige item to impress allies and enemies alike. By the 41st Millennium, most power weapons are considered rare and greatly coveted personal close combat melee weapons used on the battlefields.įew members of the Adeptus Mechanicus retain the knowledge necessary to make these deadly weapons, and those that are in existence are often hundreds or even thousands of standard years old. Power weapons have been a part of the Imperium at least since its inception, but their origins more than likely lie in the mysterious Dark Age of Technology.
