The damage type is the main difference. Bludgeoning vs Slashing damage.

War hammers do more damage to enemies like golems and skeletons.

Also, as the description above states, war hammers tend to:


 * be slower to swing
 * do more damage
 * cause frequent stagger and knockdown
 * and weight more
