Imperial Guard Vibro Lances, like the those shown on this Crimson Empire graphic novel covers:

Just a thought, since many people are throwing out ideas.

Hmmm. . .maybe it will happen. Those would be worth a quest. Or make them dropped loot, perhaps.

schematic item from a quest is always best in my opinion.. doesnt cut crafters out of the game.. that would be a very welcome addition as well

Thats not a force pike, the "force pike" is the vibrolance, the weapon pictured is an echani flail, you can fight with one in Knights of the Old Republic. According to my SW dictionary echani is:
Echani
this deadly martial art was practiced by the Royal Imperial Guard during their training on Yinchorr. It involved the use of a pair of short, sharp-bladed knives

I remember my character in KOTOR wielding something similar on Taris. There would be a great idea, also. Have echani as an elite profession. But, i would just settle for having the weapon in game, right now.

Well pikeman comes pretty close to what echani was, polearm style fighting. They just need to improve the pikeman profession with a working COB, fix block to account for armor values, and perhaps increase our toughness a bit. 20ish seems really low compared to other professions. Oh and polearmhit3 NEEDS to be fixed so the damage modifier is the same as other professions. It seems rather ludicrous that our targeted pool hit and our massive damage random pool hit do the same amount of damage.
