IronDragon66 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Ok, Im reading the Eisenhorn Omnibus....and in book one "Xenos" pg. 195 here is what i found.... "The device is a fine weapon, of the old kind. It has no material blade like other, cruder models I have seen. It has a hilt, twenty centimeters long, inlaid and wound with silver thread, enclosing a fusion cell that generates a metre-long blade of coherent light." Now correct me if im wrong....but isnt that a light sabre????? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/251219-light-sabres-in-40k-whaaaa/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Well... yes. Technically what's been described as a light sabre IF you were in the Star Wars universe. In the 40k universe it's pretty much classed as an archeotech power weapon. In Dark Heresy there is a 'Plasma Blade' detailed which is the spit of this. So... in 40k it's a Plasma Blade, which does the same job as a power sword. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/251219-light-sabres-in-40k-whaaaa/#findComment-3045426 Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Furyou Miko Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Yes, Eisenhorn has a lightsaber. No, he can't deflect lasgun beams with it. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/251219-light-sabres-in-40k-whaaaa/#findComment-3045434 Share on other sites More sharing options...
