As a cav that uses only swords I am having a very hard time killing people using greatlances and such, sometimes I even have to use my horse as a wall and ride into them so I can get a few swings in.
Greatlances and lances aren't meant for stabbing, they're meant for couching so why don't we give all the cavalry the option to buy war spears? This would make it harder for a cavalry to just stab someone from 50 metres away on horseback but it would allow the option to rapidly stab into someone in close range. A cav with a war spear would still have the advantage but it wouldn't be almost impossible for swordcav to fight them.
EDIT: It's too easy in my opinion to get a lot of kills with the lance, it comes down to who has the longest lance win. Having warspears should give them more timing wise skill and they would have new tacics since war spears and such can stab rapidly.
