Statistics Lines: 19 I do not see anything wrong with using two weapons, even if they happen to be of the same type. I find myself comfortable fighting with two sai, two escrime sticks, or two boken. It merely takes a great deal of practice. In my AD&D campaign, I allow multiple weapons, subject of course to the requisate penalties for dexterity and so on, and it seems to work fine. In the case of a thief backstabbing, I only allow two backstabs if there are justifiable circumstances, i.e. haste, complete surprise, etc. -- Brian A.
