no edit summary
Used as a symbol of might and authority by certain imperial [[priests]] and [[sisters of battle]], especially in the [[Calixis Sector]], the '''Corsesque''' is a two-handed weapon shaped as a giant [[Ecclesiarchy]] emblem.{{Fn|1a}}
==Overview==With razor-sharp edges and long armour-piercing spikes, blessed and baptised, the Corsesque is a perfect tool to take down [[mutant]], [[heretic]] and [[daemon]].{{Fn|1a}} Each one is tailor-made for its bearer, a member of the Ecclesiarchy of sufficient rank. Thus, those who possess them will only bring them out on major occasions (such as before a major campaign or [[crusade]]); but when they do, they will always be at the forefront of any advance.{{Fn|1a}}
Due to the nature of their forging, Corsesques are holy weapons, particularly abhorrent to daemonic creatures and other warp entities.{{Fn|1a}}
