At the moment no. Maybe they would have this as special skill. It's up to David to decide it.

But true a rogue with dual wielding 1H weapons

and warriors Dual Wielding 2H's

Sounds awesome, maybe some place down the road.

While I like the idea, there's a technical difficulty: animation and 2D sprites. New attack animations, for all armor/weapon models, would use up lots of memory. Some devices are already struggling, and graphics design is already one of my biggest development bottlenecks.

Not saying it can't be done, but it would require a larger effort than it may look from the players' perspective, so I have it on my list of "maybe as we approach 1.0", and definitely after all the content is there.

Sounds good, If anything i figured this one would be far far down the road after many new areas are opened up :)

Funnily enough, I just talked to the guys at the Flare project, which I am helping out/donating to so they create new assets I can also add to the game. We're currently debating off-hand weapons. Don't expect animation, but rules-wise some kind of attack bonus could be made with a reasonable effort, if they provide me with the sprites.

Off hand weapons would be sick.

I think warriors with dual two hand weapons would be a little much... Like single 2h can hit above 100 on special attacks

In games where you can 2-hand larger weapons, it's almost exclusively for larger races e.g. ogres or trolls. If you ever hold a 2-handed sword, you'll know why. They're not just heavy, it's hard to actually move them around fluidly without two hands per sword... let alone having one in your off-hand.
