Committing to Dual-Weapon Attack
A follow-up to my GURPS-Day post from yesterday. One concept that came up after the comment threads was whether a DWA is really an All-Out Attack (Double) and should just be left that way. I don’t think so; after all, the picture in that post is me training dual-weapon use, and getting in a strike…

It’s been a big two weeks, though a quiet one from me as I went fully head-down finishing one project and funding another.
