Pole Arm

Overview

A Pole Arm is a type of bladed mêlée weapon with a haft at least two and a half meters long. The extra length gives the wielder the ability to engage an opponent from further away, allowing the person to inflict injury or likewise prevent damage if their opponent wields a weapon with a shorter reach.
