Soldiers in ancient time usually fight with pikes and shields.
Water transportation was outmoded by railroads and good pikes.
Hailing from Flanders, these mercenaries are armed with pikes and wear light armour.
Joined a fishing tour to Waterhouse Tasmania at Easter 2010. We caught plenty of flatheads, gurnards, pikes, kingfish, squids and Katy caught a gummy shark!
