[@gcold] So... Hypothetically speaking... If we wanted to change our character's main choice of weapon(s), could we?

It depends. Please, PM me or post here what you were thinking of. If a person uses one type of weapon throughout their entire career as a fighter, they will favor it in lieu of others. A warrior is a pragmatist, I guess, what works and has kept them alive will always be good enough and picking up a sword after only ever using an axe will present just another learning curve to conquer, for example.

At least a tier below Expert level skill could warrant the character from swapping the two weapon types. You'll see Jorwen bring out his seax and shield in lieu of his sword if he thinks it'll be appropriate, but only because he's good enough with both weapons to trust himself doing so.
