===Power Scythes===

A form of Power Weapon shaped like a scythe. Power Scythes were generally unwieldy and never caught on with the Imperial military outside the Legiones Astartes, and even then they were only popular with the [[Death Guard]], who used a massive type of Power Scythe known as ''[[Daemon Weapon#Manreaper|Manreapers]]''. Even in that particular case, they were only used by their [[Primarch]] [[Mortarion]], some officers (like First Captain [[Typhus|Calas Typhon]]), and the [[Deathshroud|Deathshroud Terminators.]]

Crunch wise they're power axes with reaping blow instead of unwieldy, giving the wielder +1 attack provided there is an enemy in base contact at the cost -1 I. As such, they're nice since they hit before other AP2 weapons. Because of its association with the Death Guard, it should surprise no one that the [[Departmento Munitorum]] cancelled all orders for Power Scythes in M34 due to their complete lack of popularity, although [[Scythes of the Emperor|some chapters still managed to get them.]]
