Title: Spear/Pikewalls
Post by: CaveSquirrel on March 21, 2012, 10:06:01 am
Just thought about that because of the shieldwalls.

Usable weapons: Pike, Long Spear, Bamboo Spear, maybe Heavy Lance.


Description: When 2 or more people with those weapons row up, they get a) a damage bonus and b) horses riding into holded weapons get damaged and stopped. Same for infantry running into spears. Infantry can block down or use shields to get through these walls.

Wasnt there a function in warband, where people were able to ram the end of the pike into the ground?

2 or more Spears ramming into one person/horse would clearly make more damage.

I am not asking for 50% or so. 10% or 1 to 2 piercedamage more are enough.

It's like the shieldwallskill.

Hell no. They are annoying enough in the battlefield, don't get them any more buffs. Using a long spear myself, btw.

Yeah I posted a similar idea here, I think your idea is really good.

I like the idea of couched pikes rearing horse.

Historically, that's how they were used.

No BS like a pike glancing on a horses' face.  :lol:

Here is your damage bonus... you stab them twice, done.

This is totally unneccsarrayryar and fuck everyone's version of "realism". Have you ever run into a pike wall in strat? You get massacred, it doesn't need a bonus. Its already got pole stagger... should it just make people explode and give them AIDS irl?
