DESCRIPTION
Lord Mettallum needed a weapon for his elite guard that he was planning on creating and after many hours of thinking came to the conclusion that a giant war axe would the most intimidating weapon for the guards. After some problems he found with vibro weapons he decided that a double headed electro axe blade would be best for the weapon while Lord Mettallum wanted it to be as strong as a vibroblade he found out that due to the electrical current being made by the weapon that a monomolecular blade would not work however due to the size of the weapon and its intended user Lord Mettallum saw this as a minor drawback. The weapon ended up being called the AAm Electro Axe apart of the AA series electro weapons that Lord Mettallum is making. The AAm is a massive Double headed Electro Axe with the blade of the axe being able to block light saber strikes and being the bane of any vibroblade user due to its advance inbuilt electricity conductors normally found in electrostaff. The electro blade is able to stay active for around 30 minutes and while on low power it can last up to 2 hours but loses its light saber resistances. The AAm also has an inbuilt rechargeable battery that allowes it to charge on a charging station when not in use.

Strengths:

• The weapon when used correctly the weapon does very strong heavy attacks able to pierce light to heavy infantry armour
• The weapons blade is light saber resistant when the electro blade components
• When activated if the blade cuts someone it will electrocute them

Weaknesses:

• Only the blade is light saber resistant this means the rest of the axe is not lightsaber resistant
• emp/Ionic blasts can disable the electro blade components turning the weapon into a normal axe and disabling the blades light saber resistance
• The weapon loses its lightsaber resistance while on low power due to not being able to make an electrical field around the blade strong enough to block the light saber's energy blade
• Due to the weight of the weapon its attacks are slow and vulnerable to counter attacks
• prolonged contact would still melt through the metal proper due to sheer heat.

• Your link is broken. Please link the website where you found the image.

Manufacturer: FOTM

• Please link the manufacturing company.

Can cut through many standard materials with relative ease due to its Monochrome Edge.

• "Monochrome" refers to an image or object displayed only in one color and/or values thereof. Assuming you meant "monomolecular" here, this isn't going to work quite like expected. Especially not with the electrical current running through the blade.
• A monomolecular edge is essentially a string of atoms of a single molecule, and thus very susceptible to the breaking of bonds between those atoms. The current alone could dissolve these bonds, not to mention the pressure and energy exerted when striking metal and other materials that offer any form of resistance. Furthermore, metals don't have the required hardness to hold an atomic edge – glass, diamonds, obsidian, etc. do (think crystalline structure), but with hardness comes the downside of being extremely brittle, which would make the edge useless after a strike or two.
• Monomolecular blade on Wookieepedia:
  The blade was very sharp, but fragile at the same time.
• TL;DR If you want higher cutting power, a vibro-axe would be a far more feasible option.

The weapons blade is light saber resistant when the electro blade components

• Could you explain why the "electro blade components" grant lightsaber resistance? The only technology of comparable name I can find is the electro sword, which makes no mention of this ability – rather on the contrary:
  While the blade was very deadly, it was no match for a lightsaber, as shown when Dark Jedi Asajj Ventress severed the blades of three Kage Warriors in one slash.

Ionic blasts can disable the electro blade components turning the weapon into a normal axe and disabling the blades light saber resistance

• This should also include EMP

The weapon is big and heavy making it hard to use by the average person.

• This is an irrelevant Weakness when the weapon is going to be used by droids. Please replace it with an actual Weakness.

Apparently links like breaking for me

Anyway my reasoning for the lightsaber is due to the canon version of electro staffs and the riot baton used by the first order both seem to make an electrical field that is light saber resistance and i always thought that due to the small size of the electro blade uses in the clone wars it was unable to make an electrical field strong enough to block a lightsaber's energy blade

• Alright, that explanation works, though prolonged contact would still melt through the metal proper due to sheer heat. That should be added under Weaknesses.

The weapon when used correctly is very strong

• That's extremely vague. What's the "correct" use of this weapon? How strong is "very strong"?
• It weighs a lot, and even though droids are stronger than humans, 19 kg is plenty to swing around – that has some downsides. If you miss an attack with this, the weapon is either a.) liable to fly out of your grip or b.) take so long to bring back around that it leaves a serious window for counter-attack to your opponent. That should be added under Weaknesses.

1. If the shaft is made out of durasteel – a conductor – how is that the electrical current doesn't fry the droid holding the axe?[
