Somewhat more effective. If it works like adventurer mode then each sword gets a roll per turn, and the dwarf will attack with the one that has a better chance to hit.

I can just see this guy having a mood and combining them into some sort of better randomly generated weapon that has two blades in it.

i had a dwarf holding a sword and a shield in one hand before after his other hand being cut off by a goblin.

I reccomend letting him go nuts, though.  If he goes berserk, free target practice for your military!  If he doesn't, raving naked bedridden dwarf!

God that measures 8.4 on the awesome scale. 10 involves a baby firing a magma canon at a roc.

How much would a stream of magma triggering a pressure plate, causing a baby to be fired at a roc measure?
