Background

The signature weapon of the COG, the Lancer possesses a fully automatic mode of fire and the iconic Chainsaw Bayonet attachment for melee combat. One of the most popular rifle designs on Sera, the Lancer has seen extensive use since the Pendulum Wars.

Chainsaw Bayonet

One of the Lancer's most distinctive and popular features is its notorious Chainsaw Bayonet.

The chainsaw consists of razor-sharp, carbide-tipped blades powered by a variable-torque motor, and is capable of instantly killing an enemy in seconds.

Execution

In Gears of War and Gears of War 2, the player executes a downed enemy by chainsawing them the same way as if they were standing up. In Gears of War 3, the player flips over the downed opponent, jabs the rifle into their chest and turns on the chainsaw, quite messily mutilating the enemy as bits and blood splatter onto the screen.
