LE Pole-arm weapons and appropriate animation + kill moves

[Danman804]

Pretty self-explanatory. Current system of animations force the player character to swing pole-arms, even if added, around like a 2handed weapons, which looks ungainly and awkward. I was wondering if there are any modders resourceful enough to craft some animations for pole-arm specific swing/stab/sweep animations, as well as some decent kill moves. As in, for example forward straight stab, sideways sweep, over-head slash/swing, some fancy-but-believable block and counter moves?

 

I think this will be an awesome addition to skyrim. If anyone can manage this, I think a lot of people including myself will be VERY grateful =)

Supposedly Beth might release proper polearm mechanics (as seen in the Jam video) in one of the next big patches, or in another DLC besides Dawnguard (which as of yet we've seen no indication that it would include spears. Only crossbows). And I imagine that few are going to bother trying to do real polearms until Beth either does it on their own or Beth stops working on Skyrim period (and hasn't already released polearm mechanics that is).

Apparently they didn't intend to release polearm animations for Dawnguard. I hope anyone might still be interested - it would be hugely exciting if this is implemented.

I'm thinking they're gonna release polearm anims when their next expansion comes out. And I don't mean Hearthfire. I mean a actual expansion.

For polearms I think I have found examples that would be used for the Iron, Steel and Blades versions.
