Seeing as how this is still a tactical combat game, by taking two weapons and using daggers/shortswords, I am somewhat handicapping myself anyways. I just have a total aversion to cheating of any sort, and with games like this, I hate even bending the rules, because then I wonder if I'm robbing myself of the experience as it was intended.
I justify it as this: the Assassin will end up in multiple fights with many opponents, which most Assassins do not encounter. I think of it as Hugo the Hand from the Death Gate Cycle series of books, when cornered and up against it, the dude breaks out a world of hurt on everybody. I think a dual-wielding Assassin is more than plausible, especially one who concentrates on the short blades proficiencies...
