Inertial Hammer
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Inertial Hammer[1]
The Inertial Hammer is a type of exotic Archaeotech melee weapon.[1]
Found mostly on several ancient Dead Worlds in the Calixis Sector, these weapons have a very long haft. An inertial hammer is surrounded by what are thought to be power cables and the esoteric engines that drive the device. When swung, the head seems to gather inertial energy exponentially, so the weapon seems lighter and swings more easily the further it moves. On impact, the inertia is transformed into kinetic energy, allowing a single strike to hit with such concussive force that it can rupture a tank hull.[1]
