Title: Is there a stunt for this? Dual Wielding weapons
Post by: JediDresden on May 04, 2012, 04:54:46 PM
My impression is that the RAW tend to give players 1 attack per action, but is there a stunt that could represent dual wielding Knives for example?  I know the home brewed stunt list on the forums, and I looked and did not find it,just wondering if I missed it.

I was even thinking of one that doesn't add an extra attack but maybe added extra stress and or to hit bonus to the original attack roll to represent extra damage from an attack with more than one weapon.  If I remember the Star Wars Saga edition had something similar.

Can anyone help?  Please and Thank You.

The books have a stunt called Offhand Weapons Training that does exactly that: It lets you add 1/2 of a second weapon's Weapon rating, rounded up, on top of the first weapon's. So someone wielding two Weapon:3 swords would do Weapon:5 stress.

Thanks I was just lost at finding it.  I knew it had to be somewhere!

Another thing you can do is the Wall of Death stunt, which allows you to make spray attacks with Weapons. It's not really dual-wielding related (Michael Carpenter has it, for instance), but you could easily flavor it as hitting two people at once with different blades.

For future reference: if it's not on the homebrew stunt list, it's probably here (http://vinlandsolutions.site11.com/Products/DFRPG/Stunts.html).

It's most fun with a strengh power and completly oversized blades. Think tiny the gruff.
