Rules (1)

Master-crafted

A master-crafted weapon may re-roll one failed to-hit roll per turn. A master crafted ranged weapon may only re-roll hits for ranged attacks even if the weapon can also be used in close combat (such as pistols).

Profiles:

Melee Weapon
Force Weapon: Force weapons are treated as a power weapon, but can unleash a psychic attack that kills an opponent outright. Roll to hit and wound as normal, allowing any Invulnerable Saving throws the victim might have. As long as one wound has been inflicted, make a Psychic test for the Psyker against any one opponent wounded by the weapon. The normal rules for using psychic powers apply, and you may not use another psychic power in the same turn. Passing the test slays the opponent outright, no matter how many Wounds it has (count the actual number inflicted for determining who won the assault). Force weapons have no special effect against targets that don't have Wounds, such as vehicles.
