Captain Tycho's The Dead Man's Hand
« on: June 2, 2011, 10:15:13 AM »
Hey All,
I was wondering if in the fluff, novels or Imperial Armor it ever says what kind of weapon Captain Tycho's The Dead Man's Hand is.  I know what it does but did not see a visual description of it in the Codex.  I'm attempting to make a custom Tycho and that weapon is the only part I'm not sure of.
Thanks.

Don't quote me but I think it's his own bionic arm, as opposed to a "weapon" as such.

That would be good.  I could make that work a couple of different ways...either the IG little power fist or the bionic arm from the command set.

It's a set of digital lasers according to the 3rd edition Codex, as that's how they functioned back then. So essentially, Tycho has the Power Glove.

I always imagined it in the same vain as Stracken's bionics. Just a bionic arm that goes smashy smashy.
