Throwing Weapons are the way to go, when you like high damage in ranged combat

I don't like ranged combat at all, that's because you only see melee equipment in my character's inventory (screenshot). The Military Schyte gives me the 80+ damage, with Power Strike 7, so I can kill most of living beings. However, I just do not think it is good while in horseback, so that's why I have a Bastard Sword plus the Shield, so when the shield gets broken I just switch to a two-handed light weapon (Sword is light, when comparing to Military Schyte

). The Polearm is only used by me in the start of each skirmish battle: Most of the times the AI uses the ´´Advance`` command, and the lord(s) go(es) together with his(their) and this way those get vulnerable to a well-done polearm thrust. The lords are always my first targets, when in skirmish, don't ask why; there was no skirmish morale in 1.011, so I guess I only like the idea of killing both the commander and the hero of the enemy army first. Also, polearms still prove useful when in sieges, in some situations. Only experience answers.
