Polearms

The usefulness of polearms are somewhat hard to describe; they are basically powerful enough, albeit somewhat inaccurate, and two of the 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 ones of 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; the spear, the scythe, and the helberd.
