If you mean a wizard being able to wield non mage items, then ya. He can use warhammers and the like at lvl 14.

BTW, the weapon restriction is only for dueled/multied clerics.

Just make sure hes got high intelligence. I think the minimum is 14 but youll be better off with an 18 int. that way he can learn and use the higher level spells.

OHE YEAH........ WELCOME TO THE BOARD

To dual class to a Mage, you need 17 int.

Yes your mage will be able to use any weapons that a fighter can use once he hits level 14. So as a fighter, you can grandmaster the longsword, and once you hit level 14 with your mage, your mage will then be a grandmaster with the longsword.
You mage can also wear armor that a fighter can use (platmail,etc) but he can't cast while wearing it. Your mage can also use a shield, so you can hold a nice protective shield while you cast.
It would have been better if you dual classed at level 12, the extra fighter level only gives you a Thaco drop, you get your proficiency at level 12, but its not going to hurt you any, so have fun.
