Marty is absolutely correct. These stats are from 2nd Ed. AD&D rules.
However, I think the THAC0 bonus is as likely from being able to hit harder, and thus penetrate armor better, as it is from swinging faster to hit a moving target.
The 2nd ed. AD&D armor class system doesn't really differentiate between dodging a strike and having a strike deflected by armor or a shield. The 3rd edition rules in IWD2 do a slightly better job at this.
