Editing Codex - Rising Sons (section)

===Yamato Spears===

Just like the Yamato Blades, the Yamato Spears are one of those weapons used by the Rising Sons. They do differ in a certain way from normal spear weapons. These are utilized to fell down Beasts and Cavalries. Even Bikers and Eldar Jetbikers experienced a terrifying defeat at the hands of those Rising Sons that were armed with such weapons. 

The Yaris, as they are called, are incredibly long and require a long amount of training to be wielded properly, thus only the Veterans of the 1st Company are given these spears. Compared to the naginatas, they are actual, true spears designed to thrust into enemies with great penetrative power.

There are two types of these spears. The Katakamayari used by the Sternguards and Vanguards, as well as the traditional Yari wielded by Terminators. The first is armed additionally with a hook that is used in order to keep enemies from escaping. The latter are the original spear that is used by Terminators.

Terminator Armours aren't designed for chasing enemies (unless it's the Tartaros), thus the Katakamayaris are used exclusively by those who wear traditional armour. In order to make up the differences, the yaris used by Terminators have been made even more lethal. So much in fact that they can be useful against larger enemies, yet still not as powerful to fight against the largest monstrosities.
