Tower guards should either have:

A 50% chance of spawning using a pike, and 50% chance of using a sword.

or

Always be given a spear that would be thrown before drawing a sword. I like this latter idea better, as it adds a unique feature to them, rather than them just being a "bridge unit" between Gondor Soldiers and Swan Knights.
