new polearm..

[slavetrader]

how about introducing a new polearm: the halberd. (two-handed with cutting and piercing damage) character should be strong to use it though.

it took a strong man to use a halberd effectively. but in the right hands it was one of the most devastating weapons of the middle ages (the swiss pikemen and halbediers were feared all over Europe)

Quadrupled. It'd be cool to see.

 

[slavetrader]

what would be really cool to see is the reason halberd was feared among cavalry. the hook with which one could pull mounted troops of horseback. but that could be too complicated to realize..
would be nice though to pull a dark knight of the saddle and then unleash the bloodthirsty refugeeladies on him

 

[0cool]

it would be nice to be able to knock a knight of his horse at all.

I'd just like polearms to be brought into balance, whichever way possible. Aside from lance type weapons (which i dont' like to use) polearms are inferior to other melee weapons in every way. Although i suppose one could argue that they take no strengh to use...but still. I want my glaive to do more damage dangit!!
