The meteor hammer is listed as being a 2h reach weapon when used normally. You also have the option of switching combat styles from normal to either "fortress" or "meteor storm". In fortress you use one end to gain a +1 shield bonus and in meteor storm you use it as a double weapon.
Do you lose your 10' reach when using either of these alternative styles? I didn't see anything in the description though I'm inclined to say that you would lose it. Also in fortress style is it no longer a 2h weapon? Could someone enchant one end as a shield and the other end as a weapon?

Neither combat style affects the reach of the weapon.
In fortress style, you're still using one hand for the defensive aspect and one for the offensive use, so neither hands are free.You can't craft the weapon with armor or shield properties.
Thank you for the clarification!
