Polearms

The usefulness of polearms are somewhat hard to describe; they are basically powerful enough, albeit somewhat inaccurate, and two of named weapons (Vermis and Mjolak) are in this category.

However, almost always both of your hands (or a hand of extreme strength) are required to wield them, severly limiting your choice of equipment. And handles of polearms are heavier than any other weapons, which means scrolls of harden/change material is less effective than using them on most other weapons.

There are 3 sorts of weapons in the 'polearms' category; spears, scythes, and helberds.
