Knight at Arms
I'm working on a mod set in a time period similar to the Late Middle Ages in Europe, and I'd like some advice in regards to polearm weapons - specifically, how long they should be. The lengths in Native seem way off, so I'm trying to get some more accurate measurements. I need the length of:
- a spear (for your average peasant infantryman)
- a pike (for more professional troops)
- a lance (for knights/heavy cavalry)
- a halberd
I know that all of this depends exactly on which part of Europe you're talking about, but I'd just like some rough estimates. The pike is especially hard for me to decide on, since I've read that pike weapons can range anywhere from 10 to 22 ft. Thanks in advance for the help.
