Sub-Roman Britain (Cavalry etc)

[Vindex]

Don't know when it was from, just know that it was like the Four Crosses spearhed but a bit shorter, heavier, and wider. And by what kind of spear I mean things like a heavy thrusting spear, or such specifics as if it was a cavalry weapon. I thought that the extra weight would make it a great cavalry weapon.

This is an interesting comment - without taking you off topic, may I just enquire why you think the extra weight would make it a great cavalry weapon? Are you considering the extra weight behind the "thrust" of a horse or something else?

My reason for asking is that extra weight means more balance required for horse and rider so I tend to favour slightly lighter weapons for manouerability, but with the same "thrust" and impact coming from the momentum of the horse.

PM me a reply if you would prefer not to clutter up the thread. Ta!
