I am the Hammer. I am the right hand of my Emperor. I am the tip of His spear, I am the gauntlet about His fist. I am the woes of daemonkind. I am the Hammer.

DONKEY PUNCH ALL THE WAY! just because of the name. Iconicness (iconicity? iconaciousness? :P) wise, Chainfist - blood (chain), shock (power field) and awe (the wearer, i.e. Terminator) all in one package.

chainfists annoy me. there is no way that putting a tiny chainblade on a powerfist would make any difference at all. the power field would probably prevent the chain from even running

The powerfist I chose as it is kinds of awesome.
Though, my personal favourite would be a power axe as Cmdr Dante has one, so it has to be that

More for the terror on infantry. Can you imagine a giant terminator with a chainfist sploding a guy with the saw throwing gore all over the place.
Ive cut metal with saw teeth and it works really well so there is a bit of truth there. On thin plate it works but against thick armor I agree, cant see it making too much difference unless you laid into a stationary target. I can even see heat warpage locking the thing in place.
Ha. Logic in 40k, what am I thinking, its 40 THOUSAND years in the future and they can destroy planets but they cant stop rust.

I have to jump on the chainfist bandwagon. It combines the two most iconic melee weapons into one, power fist with added chainsword.
Obviously Kirsten they were made during the dark age of technology when such concerns were easily solved, and its also why all terminators don't wear them, they don't make them anymore
However the process of robo-insemination is far too complex for the human mind!
