Dual Strike

Cost: 4
Ability Type: Attack
Related Skill: Melee Combat
Prerequisites: Melee Combat 6 and All-Out Attack

This technique combines an attack with two weapons into a single, coordinated strike – making it an all-or-nothing proposition that is devastating when it succeeds. When using this technique apply all the normal modifiers to both weapons (move modifiers, penalty for making two simultaneous attacks, any Offhand Penalty, etc.) and then take the average of these modifiers, add a +2 AM, and apply the result to a single attack check. If the attack hits then both weapons strike home and inflict normal damage. Both weapons hit the same location, with any aiming modifiers applied to the attack as a whole.
