Basically a Tau powerfist equivalent, but can only be used by Crisis-type battlesuits. Often jokingly called "donkey punch" by a players, and sometimes modeled on a suit's legs instead of hands, since "onager" is Latin for donkey (although it was also the name of a Roman catapult).

It was designed to battle Imperial tanks after the Tau realized that those crazy Gue'la can send in so many MEHTUL BAWKSES in a single engagement that Crisis teams would exhaust their ammunition supplies and the Guard would still have tanks rolling everywhere. Despite being ''very'' successfully tested during the Damocles Crusade, where a 12-man team of Crisis suits managed to falcon punch dozens of Imperial tanks into scrap, it is still undergoing field tests and is treated as an experimental system, due to the fact that the casualty rate of trying to give tanks a proper fisting in the middle of a war was too damn high.

Of the original 12 suits who tested the weapon; only Commander Bravestorm of [[Farsight]]'s battlesuit retinue survived....kind of. Although Bravestorm lived, his body was [[Dreadnought|too badly wounded after his Crisis suit was critically damaged at one point that he had to be permanently entombed into his Crisis suit just to survive]].

In 9th this weapon is a '''S12 AP-4 D3''' MONSTER. It is no longer a single attack. This weapon now feels like it's fluff. Bring 'lo the enemies of the greater good with this fucking BEAST of a weapon. Pair with the new Thermoneutronic Projector for not just an adequate melee unit, but an actually good one.
