This required the lance to be Large---which needs two hands).Therefore, you are left with this strange weapon which is Medium, but which somehow has Reach. Hell, you can dual wield them now!The only fixes are in House Rule territory, unfortunately (the simplest being that one may only use a lance one-handed while mounted. Another solution would be to remove them from the game, replacing them with longspears---with the exception that longspears may be one-handed weapons if used while mounted).</blockquote>
