"I cannot force on them weapons that are ill suited to them," Oliver said. "Nor do I particularly enjoy gathering up the spear-wielding men together, and forcing them to fight as a unit, for they each wield the spear differently. The discipline that it takes to forge a cohesive spear unit, of the sort that the Serving Class aspire towards, that is beyond them, in our time limit. Aggression, Volguard, is our only true tactic. We wish for the melee continually. In the melee, when we allow our men to fight as individuals, they are the more barbarous, the most brutish."
