#36166, "having done large scale heavy weapons battles"

to the tune of several thousand vs several thousand I can garuntee you that while big swords may have situational use... getting past the points of dozens of spears is a challenge.
Now if you can get opponents out of formation then spears get a bit weaker but if you have ever seen a wall of spears you likely want a really big shield and a lot of steam to get through to the people holding them.
