Swords suck, spears are a way more effective weapon

Have you ever fenced against a spear?

I fenced in college against people with slightly longer arms and just that minor difference put me at a huge disadvantage.

I feel you. I know how many hits I can get in just stabbing at unexpected moments at long range with my sword, with a spear it would be plenty easier.
