Mars Sicarian Rustwalkers

Mars Sicarian Ruststalkers wielding Transonic Blades.

Transonic Weapons are a specialised type of weapon utilised by the warriors of the Skitarii Legions of the Adeptus Mechanicus. When activated, these weapons emit a low, insistent buzz that makes stomachs turn and eyes vibrate in their sockets.

When they strike armour, these weapons adjust their hostile sonic field to match the armour's resonant frequency, quickly slicing right through it and, in the case of the feared Chordclaw, turning muscle, bone and fat to jelly.
