bardiche_(riot_blade_ii)_(nanoha)
]]'s upgraded default melee form in Mahou Senki Lyrical Nanoha Force.
Takes the base appearance of an [[energy sword. This sword has a more ornate axe-shaped hilt and curvier blade compared to those on the older Riot Blade and Riot Zanber forms.
The Riot Blade II can appear as:
* A single energy sword, like the older Riot Blade form.
* Twin energy swords, like Riot Zanber Stinger. Unlike Riot Zanber Stinger this form does not have the "mana string" connecting both pommels.
* Two energy swords fused hilt-to-hilt into a single double-ended 'sword'.
