===Chainscythe===

A even more unconventional and unwieldy weapon than the Power Scythe.

The Chainscythe is both a incredibly rare and extremely difficult to wield. It is telling that only one unit from oldschool [[Necromunda]] was seen carrying this thing around.
It is only seen wielded by the [[Spyrer]]s wearing the [[Matriarch Hunting Rig]], this variant of the chainglaive mounts the blade at a horizontal angle to the tip of the shaft.

Seriously though, how the hell do you fight with this thing? Not only does it share the same stupid profile of all chainweapons (That is the metal piece mounted on the blades are interfering with its cutting power), but it also shares the same awkward handle of a scythe. Try and hit someone with that thing, there is a reason why warscythes have their blades turned 90 degrees upwards like halberd to increase chances of it actually hitting anything. Well, when people did use scythes to kill someone it was almost always by burying the pointy end deep into the target, rather than by fiddling with the blade to make a cut. Now picture this, the whole blade of the Chainscythe inside a person, that you then get to rev gushing the flesh inside and depending on the squishiness of the target even cutting messily OUT of the body, rather than in.

Certain [[Death Guard]] [[Deathshroud|Deathshrouds]] are known to use a special hybrid variant of a Power Scythe with chain teeth. Similar to the Chainfist, these specially modified Manreaper Scythes combine the disruptive nature of a power weapon with the raw and savage cutting power of a chain weapon. [[Mortarion|Ol'Morty]]'s own personal Manreaper ''"Silence"'' also incorporates chain teeth, but at a lesser extant.
