[QUOTE="Donovan Morningfire, post: 3487358, member: 39532"] Problem with that approach is you'd still have the people who would argue that if you're fighting with more than one weapon, you should get more than one attack roll. It's very likely that the designers thought of something like you suggested (I've read enough of the assorted author's and editor's stuff to know they aren't a bunch of blockheads). But they concluded it would make more sense to simply have two-weapon fighting provide an extra attack, though at a whopper of a penalty. There's already been plenty of outcry about iterative attacks going the way of the dodo. I don't want to even think about the backlash that might be generated if multiple attacks were done away with entirely. Besides, there may very well be a TWF-related feat that does something similar to what you suggested. If not, it wouldn't be too hard to cook one up using the base TWF feat as a prereq with a minimum BAB attached. [/QUOTE]
