Everytime this comes up the advice seems to be the same. Don't use
the ambidexterity rules. Maybe reduce the offhand modifier by one
per 2 levels of ambidexterity. And factor in all the recoil for both
weapons (Gurth's idea). So if the offhand modifier is +4 (I can't
remember :( and the PC has Ambidexterity 6, he only has a +1
modifier for his left hand. But if he's firing two ingrams on BF,
then he's got a +6 to each shot. Sound good?
