Powered melee weapons use a generator in the hilt or handle to create an energy field around the blade of a weapon. This disruptive field assists the blade in penetrating armor and causing damage, increasing the effectiveness of the weapon drastically. An axe sacrifices finesse for raw force. Therefore a Power Axe possesses a great deal of force indeed. Power Axes are ideal for hacking down enemy troops that are not well suited to hand to hand combat.
