Now go ahead and think of a third choice. 

Hoplites, bonus to shield and polearm skill!  Now to make 1h stabs not be totally worthless...

I hear one by the name of donovan has mastered both shielding and 1h stabbing, shame he never tells his secret. However, what he does do is make all "hoplites" look stupid and inferior and dumb and stupid some more. Why not either give the legionnaire a slightly buffed shield increase to the same as pavise so that they aren't redundant in every team (every team needs shielders) or add a new class with a really lame name like samurai or something along those lines who excels at using short crappy weapons that they can swing really really really really fast. let's take wormbanes for example, sure they're already better than the durendal or any other sword in the game but think what you could do whirling that at the nords quicker than a dev using a butter knife. of course some will draw the contrast to zweihanders but we all know they are compensating for something with their big swords and don't want competition on the market. yes a class dedicated to swinging little 2h swords stupidly fast sounds like a much needed balance to the commando tree.
