the absolute best weapon in the entire game is a good shield, a jousting lance, and a warhorse or better.

you can singlehandedly decimate armies of nords (they have short weapons and not a lot of missile weapons) and swadians (they have short weapons and slow missile weapons, but some horses). Veagirs and Khans have enough missile fire to make it to difficult to take them out without backup, and Rhodok spears (despite what people say) do in fact work pretty good against horses (since they are long enough to still get an occasional hit in even against the length of a jousting lance).
