I'm thinking of playing through IA 5 again after a long break, and I'm wondering whether its a good idea to give a 1.5x str bonus to 2 handed weapons as per IWD2 rules.

1) Its makes more sense. You are swinging it with 2 hands afterall
2) More incentive to use 2 handed weapons. Currently, there is no incentive at all, since dual wielding gives extra attack and more weapon bonuses

Anyway, its good to be back. I'll be starting a IA5 game when time permits

Regards

Don't forget the whirwind attack. The bonus to critical not too powerful because the helmet protect it. I dont think the 1.5x str bonus is not good idea because it means bonus thaco too. I think add bonus damage to the the weapon style.
The two handed weapons are very powerful in IA so doesn't necessery improved it.
