If I remember rightly, warhammers were actually intended to pierce armor. They were heavy, and had very thin ends, unlike the textures in-game. That way, all of the force of the swing would be transmitted to that tiny point, presumably piercing the armor, and majorly injuring the person inside. Maces and clubs were blunt, and intended to crush armor, though.
