Morrowind: Duel Wielding Two Handers?

I noticed something during the trailer. I stopped it and uploaded this screenshot. This is a sorcerer with what looks like two-hander's on his back. Regardless if these are two handers, are there any one-handers that go on your back in this game?

Is duel wielding two-handers coming?

    those are one-handers :)

    but being on your back is a nice choice for non daggers

    Could be just a new animation for DW instead of them hanging from your waist. But interesting observation.

    Are you sure those are one handers? I dont see one handed hammer-like weapons and two handers are notoriously small in this game.

    some maces are hammers, look at glass for an example, many one handed weapons are large enough to look 2 handed :p

    This happens with some spells if you cast them while dual-wielding. You can see it on any character during the final main story quest with the activation spell things.

    Just like @KochDerDamonen said...Its an old "casting spells animation with DW".
    ...Try casting Crystal Shard (or its morphs) while dual wielding, it will put your 1-handers crossed behind your back even now on Live
    It's just that whats happening in the picture too in fact.

    Looks nice nevertheless :)

    Ah. I didn't think about that.

    Still, I wouldn't be mad if they decided to change the DW's sheathed position like that.

    It would get rid of a lot of jarring clipping issues with the side flap thingies on a lot of armor and costums.

    DUAL wielding. Not frigging duel weapons.

    I could definitely go for dual-wielding: not only two-handers, but shields and staves as well.

    And the ultimate dual-wield weapon: BOWS!

    Interesting reading. Thanks for sharing

    Khajiit should be able to wield an dagger on tail tip.
    This would let us access both two handed and one other weapon skill like staff or sword and shield at once :)
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.
