No Spanish/Portuguese dual-wielding character?
Haven't got the game yet. Are there any sword + parrying dagger characters in game (ie: like Tercios in their out-of-combat style swordsmanship)? Seems like a wasted opportunity to not have at least someone like this in (with a 2-weapon fighting style).

I mean like this: https://static3.abc.es/Media/201509/23/alatriste-daga--644x600.jpg

Cheers!

Offhand stuff like daggers and bucklers are planned

Offhand weapons are planned, and I'm sure one of them will be rapier and dagger. But that combination of weapons was used by many systems, not only Spanish/Portuguese fancing. It would be nice to see some Spanish Destreza represented though, but difficult to implement as it relies so much in blades pushing and sliding on each other. Maybe when they add the binding mechanics for longsword, they could be repurposed to accommodate Destreza too.

Besides, after so many fighting games went with the "suave toreador" Spaniard trope, we are owed a proper representation and this game is perfect for it (there were diplomatic ties between Spain and Poland-Lithuania, as they both considered themselves to be the main Catholic strongholds of the West and East rrespectively)

Spanish/Portugese Espada y Daga - would be AWESOME!

Any fencer from Europe is a good call, and spanish are so stereothypicaly swash bucklers that I am surprised they are not planned now.
