Sorry this is so off topic, this is the best place I knew to ask a lot of knowledgeable historians about warfare. (btw the mod is excellent, looking forward to Carthage in 2.2!!!)
Anyway so I was watching Game of Thrones and the tower of joy scene had dual wielding in. For those who haven't watched it here is a link.

The guy dual wilding is supposed to be the best of his generation for context against a bunch of battle hardened warriors. I have spent time dual wilding with a sword and dagger but that is a very different style to what he does. I know that this technique would be useless in a pitched battle but could it work in a a fight like this? For me it didn't seem to unrealistic but many of my friends thought it was ridiculous. It is slightly ridiculous but only in the same way that effectively winning 4 on 1 is always going to be in my opinion.
Thanks in advance and keep up the good work.
