The Omwati anti-grav hammer is a very unique weapon invented by weapons manufacturers while Moff Tarkin was keeping the planet Omwat isolated. The frail Omwati, desiring a mighty weapon that could crush stormtroopers, came up with the unique idea of marrying anti-grav systems akin to repuslorlifts and combining them with a very heavy hammer. They took dense material, fashioned hammers, and then added the anti-grav technology to lighten the blade. Omwati troops-in-training can twist part of the handle as they swing, reducing the repulsors and making the hammer heavier. With much practice, one can swing the hammer and by twisting the handgrips keep the weapon under control. Downturned strikes with this weapon are mighty and deadly, and the extra weight can deal heavy damage even through armor. However, the application of the hammer in the field never came about. Tarkin died, the Imperials withdrew, and the conflict with the Empire, which the Omwati expected, never came about. Thus, the weapons went largely unused. Seeking to acquire some capital, the weapon manufacturers that built them have opened the market for buying the hammers. They’ve met great success in the market, especially from Wookies and Togorians, who can handle the hammers very easily. The one drawback is the hammer tends to require lots of power packs, and when the power packs are expended, the hammer goes from it’s light, fifteen kilogram configuration to a hammer too heavy to handle.
