Matti-patti:
A casual look at Oakeshott type XIIs seems to indicate some longer bladed swords did exist in the period, they at least belong as much here as mail mittens/leggings and kneecops and coudes. I would kill the battlesword as anachronistic though, make bastard sword the big sword (though I hate the name, I'd use great or long sword) and buff it with +1 edge damage to make up for removal of battlesword (I'd also cut the weight of bastard sword by a pound).

While atlatls weren't used as throwing aids in historical Europe, leather straps (called amentum by the ancient Greeks) were used for same purpose in antiquity at least. The wiki page states they have been found in 200–450 CE Danish bog finds. Barely plausible I suppose?
