[QUOTE="cavalier973, post: 5352743, member: 91595"] Thanks for the link to the conversion doc. Of course, I was up until after 3:00 a.m. last night [I]completely rebuilding[/I] the classes using the HotFL book for the game I play with my kids (I made my own power cards using 3X5 index cards). But I ran into a question about the "Two Weapon Fighting" feat. From the PHB, I remembered that a character can wield a weapon in each hand, but unless he is a Ranger, he can only attack with one weapon each turn. However, the HotFL description of the TWF feat seems to indicate that the character can attack with both weapons simultaneously. I've searched through the errata and made some web searches besides to get confirmation of this, but cannot find a clear answer. If a "specialised" (20 DEX) thief with the Two Weapon Fighter feat can attack with both weapons at the same time, and he is wielding a shortsword in each hand, he would be dealing 2d6 + 16 damage, plus another 2d6 if he can Sneak Attack, plus another 1d6 if he uses Backstab, for a potential damage output of up to 46 points. It seems quite a bit for a first level character, but maybe that's the goal. [/QUOTE]
