Talk: Longspear

Pike

Is a longspear identical to a pike? The Pike section of the Pole arm article revers here, and the description sounds like it was the same, but at the long length end of the spectrum. If it is, how should it be mentioned in the article? Daranios (talk) 16:00, December 15, 2015 (UTC)

The distinction is a bit arbitrary. The dividing line is 15 ft long. Anything shorter is a longspear and anything 15 ft or greater is a pike, but they are essentially the same weapon in form. —Moviesign (talk) 18:11, December 15, 2015 (UTC)
