Garro's position entitled him to wear a unique cuirass and back plate on his [[Mark IV]] [[Power Armour]], in the shape of eagles taking flight. Unlike the eagle-heads of the [[Aquila]] both eagles on the cuirass were sighted, giving rise to a rumour among the more superstitious helots and servants of the Death Guard that they gave the wearer foresight, or acted as a charm against oncoming dangers. Garro kept these fittings on his armour even after it had been stripped of other colours and livery. Later, Garro was issued a set of [[Mark VI]] Corvus-pattern Armour sometime before his mission to [[Istvaan III]].{{Fn|4}}
As his primary weapon, Garro carried a potent [[Power Weapon|power-sword]]. Called ''[[Libertas]]'', it had a heavy monosteel blade and was fashioned in the style of a broadsword.{{cite this}} An old Terran weapon, elements of it existed before the birth of its wielder and even predates the fall of [[Mankind]] and the coming of [[Old Night]].{{Fn|7}} Garro thought of Terra as his home, rather than the Death Guard homeworld of [[Barbarus]], and it pleased him to carry a weapon from that planet.{{cite this}}
Another one technological artefact that wielded Garro is a ''Falsehood'' - one of a wonders of the [[Knights-Errant]]s that may have a lot of different forms and had varying effects. In case of Garro it projected a psycho-luminal sphere around him that distorted his guise, because of what the enemy can not see or detect him. It allowed Garro to infiltrate the battlefield practically unseen and, even once detected, made it very difficult for an enemy to target him.{{Fn|7}}
