Gunlance: I haven't been following the Gunlance ideas closely, I just figured I toss that in so you would have it for consideration.

Spear: The way I see it, the character would store it in short form, and when they first take it out it would in in the shorter form and then the longer version is a surpirse (atleast to the enemy), like Sun or Nora transforming their weapons which we saw as one thing and found out did something else.

I can see the short form working fine, different moves than long because it is more manuevable, less useful for bludgening, and the position of the gun and blade relative to each other is different. In any case I can imagine both forms being used effectively, if you think about it, Cresent Rose is a gun and sharp object held together on the same tool, and so is each of the two forms. I can think of cool moves in either form and ways to use them in conjunction.

You said you don't understand the short form, do I need to make crappy paint images too? Because I will if that helps.
