Don't forget about weapon breaking rules and closing rules. Unless you're sword and board, you'd better have a second weapon on you. One versus many opponents also puts the high skilled character in a difficult situation. Then there's that whole issue with missile fire.

Heretic. Remember, Fafhrd once deflected a lightning bolt spell with a long length of wire! Fafhrd and the Mouser used to wade through their enemies, Graywand, Heartseeker, Scalpel and Cat's Claw dripping crimson with blood. The difference, Fafhrd and the Mouser used Spot Rules while Elric just stood there chopping with a howling demon sword.
