y'know... the Vikings were successful for a reason... axes for an assault role is basically one of the easiest decisions one could make. decent reach, combined with the highest power strikes of all the basic weapon types for tearing through armor, and possesses a surprisingly high level of technical complexity regarding hook and pull techniques to trip or disarm, choking up on the axe head for punching things that have closed in to grappling range... the biggest question is whether to go for a light tomahawk style for maneuverability and speed, or go raw power with a halberd or great axe...
