[QUOTE="TanithT, post: 5799257, member: 87695"] It can be done and has been done; it's a legit fighting style. I really hated running up against dual wielders in the SCA, since I was sword-and-board. Oh, the openings they can find. One of those buggers broke my arm that way. Dual wielding giant hammers I'm less sure about. I've never seen it and there might be center of gravity and balance issues. But swords, absolutely no question. Two-swords aren't the most common thing to see in the SCA, fortunately for us sword-and-boarders, but you do definitely see them. And some of them are too bloody good. My least favorite trope is the idea that a cleric or paladin of a non-Christian fantasy deity should be celibate. Um, why? You've got the wrong religion there, and it shouldn't be an automatic assumption. [/QUOTE]
