Will you guys be making spear weapons and spear/polearm skill line? I feel like this is a great idea

mid evil combat always has spears/polearms

We've begged continuously. (Also, it's medieval. Just remember, "Die valerie." Medical evaluation is how my friend remembers it.) I hope and pray for this day. I'm going to start a cult before too long.

Medieval* combat did have spears and polearms, but I'm not sure how they could implement this now without disrupting balance. Some weapons like a short spear would be assumed to have a faster attack speed, while a big poleaxe would be a very slow attack speed. I would say the use of very long weapons should have a slower attack speed of the Two Handed weapons already in the game.

Also, using the search function that is not very hard to find at the top of the forums on the right, I was able to find a list of threads that talk about this exact subject:
