ok, so the question arises, why would any orc use a double axe? TWF is a feat heavy chain, and they need the EWP to even use it right. all of those chains also need a huge dex, but the generic orc is massively str focused. to use one well, they should be fighters with a high dex... also known as the diametric opposite of a normal orc... so why?

this needs to be a feat chain.

Double the Axe![fighter][general]
Prerequisite: str 15
Benefit: you now treat orc double axes as martial weapons. additionally, you are treated as having the two weapon fighting feat for use of orc double axes, without needing to meet the prerequisites.

Blade Whirl[fighter][general]
Prerequisite: str 17, double the axe, BAB +6
Benefit: You can now attack with both axe heads as a standard action. additionally, you are treated as having the improved two weapon fighting feat for use of orc double axes, without needing to meet the prerequisites.

Power Axe[fighter][general]
Prerequisite: str 17, double the axe, BAB +12
Benefit: when power attacking with an orc double axe, both heads are considered to be two handed weapons for the damage bonus. additionally, you are treated as having the greater two weapon fighting feat for use of orc double axes, without needing to meet the prerequisites.



three feats, now the orc can spend a few feats to get the benefit of the TWF style.

so is this to insane? will it make some people not go pure THF uber charger?
