Sickle

The Sickle is a new weapon that appears in the Zombies map, Ascension. It costs 3000 points and is located on a panel near the Rocket Platform and Speed Cola. It is the Russian equivalent of the Bowie Knife and replaces it on this map. It will replace the knife that the player has at the beginning of the game and is much more powerful.
