This is the most usual weapon type, since it allows the player/unit to use a shield, and are very fast weapons. Defence and swiftness of course has to come for a cost, so the drawback to this weapon type is that the relative range and damage is less than comparatively larger weapons (such as two-handed weapons and some polearms).Two-handed weapons Two handed weapons deal more damage than one-handed weapons, but are generally slower. While on horseback all weapons are used with only one hand, so two-handed weapons suffer a 35% penalty to speed and damage when used from horseback. You also cannot use a shield despite having a hand free.The Bastard Sword (normal, heavy and samurai one) is a special type of two-handed weapon; as indicated in its pop-up it can be wielded either way.

By putting away your shield you can switch to two-handed, and vice versa. When on foot it allows you to have the two-handed advantage (which is lack of 35% penalty) against melee foes by wielding it with both hands while still leaving you the option of using a shield when under fire from ranged troops.Polearms This section is a. Help us, and you get a cookie.On foot, polearms require some special tactics and, as such, are often misunderstood.

When wielded in two hands they can do incredible damage with the thrust attack and decent blunt damage with the side swings and overhead attacks. The thrust attack does piercing damage, which is more effective against armor than cutting damage. If you want to use a shield with spears you will need to sacrifice power and side swings and overhead attack. A spear and shield deals moderate damage from great range, and being able to protect yourself with a shield at the same time is excellent for supporting your troops in single player. For fights when you don't have troops to fall back on, however, it's usually best to use it two-handed. In multi-player games, polearm and shield infantry setups are not recommended due to the limited attack options and the need to keep your distance from your opponent.On horseback, certain polearms gain a new ability known as 'couching.'

With any lance, the player has the ability to couch their lance by pressing 'x' while moving at a high speed, which allows the player to impale an opponent on the tip of their lance. A couch lance deals incredibly high damage to an opponent, often killing them instantly.

Once you have a good number of points into this skill (weapon speed isn't an issue if you use it on horseback to couch) range becomes the most important factor.Polearms that do not have the ability to couch are limited to only a thrust attack on horseback.
