Wanting a spear is reason enough! I have a buddy that's well trained in HEMA fighting, swords, spears, etc. It looks like fun but unfortunately since wrecking my right shoulder and having it rebuilt I don't have the strength or mobility to effectively wield melee weapons. I'm stuck with guns, I'm afraid.
