Hmm, didnt know that u can get one in Trademeet, thats not bad, though i dont wanna kill this guy instantly (AL NG) [img]smile.gif[/img]

@CamDawg: I ve installed the G3 Tweaks already, and they seem to have imported the D&D3.x rules for casting.. Hmm, this could really get surprising to cast within Full Plate Armor [img]smile.gif[/img]

On the other hand, elven chain does fit better with the PCs' race (halfelf) and so with his elvish background.

Regardig the sword style, i m still not sure if i stay with 2 longswords or with longsword plus smaller blade, like scimitar, short sword..

I just dont like the imagination how in the nine hells you could use 2 longswords effectively. They are pretty large and therefore difficult to swing while having a small off-hand weapon seems to be more logical.
I know that D&D 3.x uses the penalty for off-hand weapons which are not one size smaller than your character. Is this rule in any kind implemented in 2nd AD&D (or say: BG2) so that i would get a real benefit when using 2 different weapons (and therefore spending way more weapon prof. points) ?
