    Alright, I'm not sure about this; the menu screen ('R' button, Record) says my character does 1 attack per round. Then why does the game show him doing multiple attacks, and not showing the hit roll (I enabled it in options) in the feedback window? Is this just for show, and I am really doing only 1 attack per round, or is each swing an attack? I also noticed the game shows the attack more often with smaller weapons, such as daggers, than bigger ones, such as greatswords. Is this just an infinity engine flaw/bug/design?

    Many thanks for any reply ye've got. This has been bugging me for some time :)

    I know of which you speak. It always seems like my tanks miss a lot of their hits. If it doesn't show the roll, then it's most likely that it's just for show. Having a character stand still for 6 seconds (which is iirc one round) because he already attacked that round, would look silly.

    Yup! You're right again Far!
    If your character has 1 attack per round, he will attack once in 6 seconds. The others are just animations, show.

    Shoulder you mean, I guess. :D
    Whatsoever, you have a number of attacks per round as stated in record screen. Others are only animations, as mentioned above.
