The morning star was a spiked ball attached to a chain attached to a stick or hand piece, this weapon was used to knock a soldier off his horse and usually the morning star alone didn't kill them but do a good amount of damage to their armor and could give concussion.
The crossbow was easier for uneducated soldiers to learn, but took a while to load and not as accurate as the long bow, famously used by the skilled Welsh soldiers. Sending many arrows at a high arch increased the chances of hitting their target.
The bill hook was adapted from a farming tool, it was a pointed piece of sharp metal on a long stick that soldiers fought one on one with in the bloodiest battles, either on foot or horse back.
Many weapons as the morning star and bill hook just knocked the soldier off their horses and the dagger was used to finish a wounded or confused soldier off. (All soldier had daggers but only knights had swords.)
