Cerastus Shock Lance

The Cerastus Shock Lance is a massive type of Power Weapon that is used by the combat walkers of the Questor Imperialis, the Imperial Knights, and by the Renegade Knights of the Questor Traitoris. These weapons are found only on the Cerastus Knight-Lancer. The Shock Lance is mounted the Knight's weapon arm, and functions similarly to a Power Spear, although one of prodigious size. The weapon uses a magneto-hydraulic powered rail system to move the Lance backwards and then it is trusted forwards to attack. The Cerastus Shock Lance is used in conjunction with the Lancer's Ion Gauntlet Shield, which protects the Knight from attacks as it closes in with the enemy to deliver a killing blow with its lance. The weapon's disruption field is capable of being projected as a powerful electromagnetic plasma blast over a short distance, allowing the Knight to attack an opponent that may be too dangerous to get close to.

Trivia
The Cerastus Knight-Lancer is an incarnation of the original Rouge-Trader era Knight pattern known as the Knight Lancer. The Knight Lancer used a weapon known as a Power Lance, which works similarly to the Cerastus Shock Lance.
