Has a wiki page been made for it yet?

Looks really awkward to me.
:(
Perhaps it's cause you're not used to Lances though, but seems hard to control and execute.

Well, don't think of lances as a primary, solo weapon, but rather a support weapon.
The quick counter, delayed attacks, Defense/Protection piercing... I see the lance as more of a team weapon than anything else.
Sort of disappointed in that (as I love lances/spears), but it seems to serve that purpose as a team player. Though, I'm more disappointed that Humans get reduced to walking speed while wielding it. xP

...and when you think about lances in jousting, all you do is hold it steady while the horse makes its passes.

I see no reason for Humans and Giants to not be able to use Lances on any mount an Elf would ordinarily be able to use a Bow. And I'm not asking for all Lance Skills-- even if it meant they could only use normal attacks it would be fun.

well when giants are supposed to be the melee specialists.... up till now they had well... nothing fantastic over humans and actually humans had ar over elves which is still OP in my opinion but I digress. The lance for how big that it is.. i mean comon why would a human run with that... didn't your mother ever tell you to not run with large sharp objects? ~chuckle~ :3 . but no really a giant should be able to wield it on a mount imo why wouldnt they. it has long reach, we can run with it, their strong and are supposed to be melee specialised. I just hope it aint better then my broad axe as a ego (if it can be ego'd).
~makes me think of fire emblem~ :3
Dragon lancers ~cough~ ~cough~ <3

The lance skill reminds me of too much like charge skill.
Spamming windmill would have been better off to kill off the enemies.

Did any Giant tried out Lance + Windguard for a different stance? Seeing that if an enemy gets close too you, you cant jab it while in WG stance, so left with WM :D

Stance is the same, and while you can jab, you need to keep the enemy out of range.
On another note: Why haven't they implemented lancing from horseback? It's only, y'know, the main obvious use for these things.

UPDATE:
They removed the walking limitation for Human when wielding Lances. Humans can now run while wielding Lances.
