A&A Pole Arms
« on: 2012-09-28, 15:23:38 »
I've made a terrible error in judgement today.  My will power broke down and I checked the current 'in-stock' page on Arms and Armor only to discover they have both the Italian Pole Hammer and Burgundian Pole Axe in stock as of 3 days ago.  My kits lacks a pole arm and I've been eyeing both of those.  What to do... what to do...

Tough to decide? My recommended solution is always the same:  Buy both.

I absolutely concur with our KC! You really don’t want to offer an insult to either of the Italian Pole Hammer or Burgundian Pole Axe factions, so it is best to be diplomatic about it and purchase one of each.  ;D

As always, Edward is correct.

A european spear would suit you nicely, Ian. :) However, you can't really go wrong with any Italian pole weapon. Simply ask my wife. Oops.  :o
