Dual Wield and rapiers

[Grenwyn]

I'm not sure if this is an issue with the helpfile or Dual Wield, but:

A gnome can dual wield:
...1x Small sized longsword and 1x small sized dagger or
...1x Small sized scimitar and 1x small sized rapier or
...1x Small sized flail and 1X tiny sized longsword

My medium character tries to wield a medium scimitar and then a medium rapier and gets the message "One of your weapons must be light."

I'm assuming rapiers aren't treated as light weapons for the dual wield skill. Is this correct? If so, the helpfile should probably be updated to remove that example.

Or maybe it actually is different for gnomes than humans?

According to SRD, a rapier is not a light weapon, but a one-handed weapon. Therefore in FK you would require GM skill in dual wield to use it as an off-hand weapon. The help file is wrong and I've updated it.
