There are longswords in the mod, just not specifically named. Anduril is a longsword, The Sword of Command is a longsword (iirc, but it could also be a greatsword).

Longswords were considered the greatest swords ever because of their offensive and defensive capabilities, so blocking would definitely be an option.

There is also no need for a whole new type of sword, because then fans would start pestering for longsword versions of their favourite faction swords. If anything the size and textures of the swords can be changed.
