#REDIRECT [[Enhanced Prosthetic#Vibroblade]]
These [[Enhanced Prosthetic]] limbs were ones which concealed a weapon within the agent's arms, in this case a '''Vibroblade''' adapted from a standard-sized [[Vibroblade]] able to retract behind hidden panels in the hand or arm.  While a very deadly weapon, it required an independent power source  such as a ([[micro power pack]]) to operate.  Spotting this concealed weapon was very difficult.<ref name=AGCO>''A Guide to Covert Ops'', p. 110-111</ref> 
 
 
 
As with other prosthetic enhancements, these were employed only by the intelligence agencies of the [[Inner Sphere]] with agents who already had a Type 3 or superior prosthetic limb.  The [[Clans]] were too philosophically opposed and the [[Periphery]] too poor to make use of them beyond rare cases.<ref>''A Guide to Covert Ops'', p. 109</ref>  Among the [[Manei Domini]] this upgrade was available to all agents with the necessary prosthetic limb.<ref name=JHS>''Jihad Hot Spots: 3072'', p. 124-125, 130</ref>

<div class="gamerules">
 
In [[CBT]] play each conventional [[infantry]]man equipped with a Vibroblade enhanced limb adds .14 to a platoon's damage value and receives a +2 to-hit bonus, however it can only applied to other units engaged within the platoon's hex and the sum of all prosthetic weapons must be rounded normally before being applied.  In RPG play this limb has the following statistics in addition to all rules associated with enhanced limbs.<ref name=JHS/>
