hal·berd
   [hal-berd, hawl-, hol-; formerly haw-berd] Show IPA
noun
a shafted weapon with an axlike cutting blade, beak, and apical spike, used especially in the 15th and 16th centuries.
A halberd (also called halbert or Swiss voulge) is a two-handed pole weapon that came to prominent use during the 14th and 15th centuries. Possibly the word halberd comes from the German words Halm (staff), and Barte (axe)

your missing something, the key to what makes something a halberd is that it is an axe like thing with a pointy tip one a POLEARM, the differents between a pole and a haft is in size and shape and use. the thing the berserker warrior viking has, is too short in relation to the blade, it has a haft, not a pole.

no matter how you want to look at it the dragoon is using a pole weapon. its got an extremely long pole. btw, vikings did use polearms, but since polearms are given to lancer, its fair to say if they did make a viking job, it wouldnt use a polearm.

anyhow its not a scythe imo.
