General Regulation Reminder: Duel Wielding.

[Zerowinged Vasiliev]

Quoting the Standing Orders Thread

06SEP09-I: It is not permissible for Ordo Imperialis personnel to dual wield weaponry, unless:

a. melee/firearm combination.

b. two semi-automatic pistol grade firearms.

Clarification on point A:

This is only allowed when said fire arm is a one handed weapon.

Example: Pistol + Sword = OK

Assault Rifle + Sword = Not OK

Note: Edited for easier readability.

Edit: Corrected via Tsume Xiao.

Yeah, stay on topic mister.

This is a good topic, because the other day I saw someone using two assault rifles and I had to remind them that they can't.

I will dispense beatings if things do not remain on topic.

To clarify, does this mean that the TI Glock 18Cs (which are amazing and everyone should buy them) are acceptable in spite of being very, very full-auto?

They're not "dual wielded", they're "twin-linked".

[Tsume Xiao]

They're not "dual wielded", they're "twin-linked".

They are not linked. >:(

I was trying to joke, but apparently it didn't work.

[Aryte]

I approve.

I totally got it. It made me giggle.

4srs. Clarification is needed.

In Warhammer 40000 a weapon can be "twinlinked". The techniques vary but what it all comes down to is that you have two identical weapons firing at the same target. What it does rules-wise is that you get another chance to hit by virtue of throwing more projectiles at the target.

So a pistol in each hand could be considered a twin-linked pistol.

This isn't 40K. >.>

Linked implies that the trigger mechanisms are shared, so the weapons fire from one trigger, but are otherwise separate entities.

For example there is a paintball turret that is basically 3 automatic guns linked to a single trigger.

That's Linked.

Two completely separate guns, one in each hand, that's not linked. Tats dual wielding. One gun can function perfectly without the other.

Okay, you guys are getting seriously off topic with that. It was a joke, please drop it.

Bump to remind people. I've seen folks using those swords from Corsi while using assault rifles. That is a violation of this policy. Please correct it, before I have to send you an IM to correct it.
