Be a man and do Heavy Lance hoplite in full plate. I did that on a STF once and my entire team's infantry knew who they could rely on in the middle of an open field against enemy cavalry.

It's just one of those builds that screams, "Listen to me and follow me wherever you go and you won't die."

I like hopliting with my +3 heavy lance/shield/1h :)

For dedicated hoplites, ashwood pike is the only way to go.

For a competent player, the lack of sideswings is no big disadvantage, and the ashwood's damage and range more than makes up for it.
