A Psycannon is a technologically and religiously empowered creation of Mankind. Its primary use is to destroy all manner of unholy matter such as daemons and warp spawn. In short, it is a special form of Bolter which is ritually blessed by both its Magos creators of the Adeptus Mechanicus under the Machine God, and by a member of the Ecclesiarchy in the name of the God Emperor. Each bolt is also inscribed with all manner of symbols such as protection wards and banishment rites. Coupled with the psychically charged weapon, this makes for a devestating power against Chaos. It is used mainly by the Daemonhunters Grey Knights army and Inquisitors of the Ordo Malleus.

The Psycannon can also be used in another way called Neural Uplink. The psycannon is directly linked to the neural stream of the user and can be used upon the whim of a thought. This has two advantages: it gives the user a time advantage as their opponant will not realise they are about to fire on them. Also, if the user is psychicly able, they can infuse their own power with that of the weapon, adding to its already devestating effect.
