My brother is playing a pirate who throws axes at people and duel wields cutlasses (we used scimitar stats).
Therefore, he has a whole host of duel-wielding powers. My question is this: Many of the powers say he must have two melee weapons or a ranged weapon. What if he has two handaxes? Obviously he can attack with both of them in melee using the power, but can he throw both of them using the same power?
The verbiage of the rules text is kind of vague to say the least. He is clearly dual-wielding melee weapons, but he is throwing them, not using them in melee. What about a Ranger trained in Shuriken? Would he be able to throw two of them using this power? They aren't ever considered melee weapons unlike the axes. Would the Ranger need two in hand? Or does he just need one (and the second is drawn out as part of the power)?
