The weapon speed should imo be dependant on the size of the wielder and size
of the weapon(s). Let's think about an giant with 2 daggers. I really can't
see it. Why? Well first of all, the dagger would go fully into the palm of a
giant (at least that image i get of giants size), and if someone attacks with
something sharp in their palms, i think it would only hurt the attacker.
Second, i really can't see giant ever moving swords/other weapons faster than
some smaller race, fe. elf/drow, even if giant wields 2 butterknives and drow
is wielding sabres or so. I know, that it would be hard to code some
restrictions to make it work, but i really think that big races should wield
big weapons (even with reduced weapon speed) and small races small weapons
(hits more, but with less damage). Some minium size for a weapon to wield
could solve this but i think, that would restrict the game too much. But i'll
leave it for u to decide.

Ok enough of my ramblings. And enough reading of Salvatore for me too.

You realize that when a hobbit wears a pair of spider boots,
then sells them to a giant and he wears them, they fit both.
this is a fantasy game. F-A-N-T-A-S-Y. So if you had to ask my
opinion, the daggers get bigger when the giant wields them!
just like all the clothes he buys from gnomes and elves.
