So, I've a weapon that needs to fall under single-weapon style category, and can only be used as stand-alone, rendering impossible the equipping of a shield or an off-hand weapon to be used together with it.
Anyone knows of a way to accomplish this?¿ I've checked some stuff but can't find a way to 
Tnks for any help!

Why ?

Yep, Jarno Mikkola. my Mega Mod FAQ. Use of the BWS, and how to use it(scroll down that post a bit).
OK, desert dweller, welcome to the sanity, you are free to search for the limit, it's out there, we drew it in the sand. Ouh, actually it was still snow then.. but anyways.

Why ?
Trying to do something useful out of the (pretty useless) bastard swords, it was that or removing it ^^
Changed it to slash&pierce damage, and description to mention it counts as a singled-handed weapon but requires both hands.
BASTARD SWORD: The bastard sword is arguably the best single-handed weapon, although the blade is often employed through many movements and techniques that require the use of both hands. Equipping a secondary weapon or a shield while using a Bastard Sword becomes quite a hindrance. Bastard swords are generally double-edged, with a pointy end used for thrusting, it does more damage than a long sword but less than a two-handed sword.
Damage Type: Slash or Pierce (most damaging is chosen)
Special: While equipped with a Bastard Sword, off-hand THAC0 has a +16 penalty and the Weapon & Shield style becomes zero.
Backstab: -2 Multiplier
This is the best I could do with the limitations, maybe gonna have to change shields to reduce bastard sword proficiency by 1 or 2 points (case by case) to really reflect/disocurage attemps to use both together and still get out on top =]

For the sake of posterity: if you modify the item type to 57 or 69, (anything over 29 I think, but it has to be one of a few certain ones to continue to function as a weapon - like "greatsword" or "bastardsword"), then you will end up with a single-handed weapon that cannot be used in the off-hand slot. I think.
A year late, I know, but I just learned about this application of item types and it is pretty useful I'm working on a "no dual-wielding large single-handed weapons" mod right now.
Note, this is in the EE v2.0+ engine... not sure if it works in lower engine versions or in the original engine.
