'''Nemesis force weapons''' are the characteristic weapon of the [[Grey Knights]], and take the form of swords, axes, halberds, maces, and hammers. Nemesis force weapons house a psi-matrix attuned to the unique psyche of its owner. The power of the weapon itself directly corresponds to the psychic talent of the wielder. In its original version, the haft incorporated a bolter weapon, similar to the [[Adeptus Custodes]] [[guardian Spear|guardian spear]]; on newer models of the Grey Knights the bolter is a wrist-mounted storm bolter, incorporated into the armour itself.

*'''Nemesis Force Sword:'''

The most common type of weapon wielded by the Grey Knights is the Nemesis Force Sword, it exemplifies the mixture of magick and science utilized by the Grey Knights. The blade is tempered iron, flecked with shards of silver and inset with ancient runes of daemon slaying. Advanced power field generators are also contained within.¹

*'''Nemesis Force Halberd:'''

A Nemesis Halberd is a two handed weapon that consists of a long adamantium haft with an iron and silver blade set upon the top. This extra reach often allows a Grey Knight to land a fatal blow, killing the enemy before being within reach of their own weapons.¹

*'''Nemesis Daemon Hammer:'''

The Nemesis Daemon Hammer is much like a Thunder Hammer used by most other Chapters, but combines the crushing power with magicks of destruction that few can survive a single blow.¹

*'''Nemesis Warding Stave:'''

Unlike most of the Nemesis Force Weapons used by the Grey Knights, the Nemesis Warding Stave has abilities used in defensive situations. The wielder of the stave can channel his psychic might into the haft to activate the refractor fields within. The refractor fields, once activated, then projects a force field around the wielder, softening any blows and thus increasing the chance for retaliation.¹

*'''Nemesis Falchions:'''

Wielded in a pair, Nemesis Falchions are a smaller variant to the Nemesis Force Sword. By triggering the circuitry within each Falchion, a Grey Knight can swing the Force Weapon with incredible speed, striking several blows with pinpoint accuracy.¹

*'''Nemesis Greatsword:'''

Only [[Grey Knights Nemesis Dreadknight|Dreadknights]] able to wield the gargantuan size of a Nemesis Greatsword, as no mere Grey Knight could ever hope to wield such a colossal weapon unaided.¹
