Only if I can dual-wield at the same time. That guy has a buckler. What a pansy.

Yeah, he's one of the dusk-men from the East, probably, not a High Man of the West, who would probably carry two axes to hack orc's heads left and right at the same time in just one round. Without spending Hope points, of course.

The man is holding the reigns with his teeth. He must have a really high Favored Body score. He's burnin' some serious hope right now.

Clearly, we need dual-barrel-riding bow skill.

This is going to change forever your beliefs.

From The Lord of the Rings, Chapter Eleven - "A knife in the dark"

'The third was taller than the others: his hair was long and gleaming and on his helm was a crown. In one hand he held a long sword, and in the other a knife.'

Dear Developers, the truth is finally unveiled.
No more excuses. We have the proof.
The Witch-King of Angmar is DUAL WIELDING! :mrgreen:

He knelt for a while, bent with weeping, still clasping Boromir’s hand. So it was that Legolas and Gimli found him. They came from the western slopes of the hill, silently, creeping through the trees as if they were hunting. Gimli had his axe in hand, and Legolas his long knife: all his arrows were spent.

Well, look at this Special Ability which is included in TOR:
Savage Assault

Like a storm they broke upon the line of the men…

If the creature’s main form of attack has just hit producing
a great or extraordinary success, reduce its Hate point
score by 1 point to immediately roll a second attack on
the same target using the creature’s secondary weapon.
Now, take a look at the Witch-King's Special Abilities in p.83 of Rivendell:
Powers of the Lord of the Nazgûl
Black Breath Denizen of the Dark
Deadly Voice Thing of Terror
Dreadful Spells
(see right)
Words of Power
and Terror
Only as the Witch-king:
Commanding Voice Great Might
Dwimmerlaik Horrible Strength
Fear of Fire Savage Assault
:shock:

And, of course, Morgul Knife is a secondary weapon for the Witch King.

Let me give Francesco a loud handclap.

Besides, we discovered that Dual Wielding is included in the TOR rules. Only that it takes a Hate Point to use, and heroes doesn't have Hate Points.
Poisons and Dual Wielding is a Thing of Evil.
