  • The Maul is a one of the weapons available to the player in Red Faction: Armageddon.

    Description

    The Maul is an updated version of a mining sledgehammer, popular during the uprising against the EDF. Many Martians followed in Alec Mason's footsteps by using the Maul as both a construction tool and silent weapon. The tool's added gyros were able to shatter even the heaviest armour, as Darius Mason found out when he began to smash aliens in the caverns of Mars.

    The Maul is the only dedicated melee weapon in the game, and it packs a devastation punch, capable of killing most enemies with a single strike. By pressing the standard fire button, your character performs a later swing, great for taking out cultists ravagers and wraiths. Pressing the aim button performs an overhead vertical swing, ideal for smashing creepers. In addition to being a capable melee weapon, the Maul is great for smashing through structures. For best results, focus on taking out load-bearing support to bring entire buildings down.
