Talk:Ranseur

Citation for Ranseur and Roncone being equivalent?
As far as I've been able to find, a roncone is an Italian Bill, I haven't found anything that indicates a roncone is related to a ranseur. Taxonomy for polearms is notoriously difficult so can we get a citation to keep track of the terms we're using or else remove the reference to roncone?

Infantry or cavalry too?
Worldbuilding related minor question... Was the ranseur only infantry, or could it be used on horse, like a spear, to charge and all? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.163.21.122 (talk) 22:07, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

One of these things is not like the other...
The rightmost 'ranseur' in the pic is very clearly a different weapon. Theblindsage (talk) 09:05, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
