The Pike is currently being held at a inaccurate position. Just look at this:

Ofcourse it would add more range. (I still feel its still too short perhaps)

Also generally to balance pikes:

- Make it 3 slot. This would mean that only dedicated Pike users and support guys would use it.
- Only make it block stabbing attacks. This way a Pikeman would have to use his sidearm in a one on one duel but would be able to fight against other Pikeman.
- Add Pike Brace for Pikes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=klw_ydLOvFY

The Pike Brace also supported by manuals:

The Pike brace would stop cavalry and possibly damage the horses as well.

Also noticed the Warspear is also held too far from the back side of the spear. Might be a common polearm issue.
