It may not be perfectly balanced (have to run it by the local
committee), but it doesn't seem far from the mark.  I might reduce the
DX penalties with Two Weapons, but not give _four_ attacks, just let it
stand as "allows an additional attack at -3 DX".  Damnit, it's high time
a quarterstaff _behaved_ like a quarterstaff!

FWIW, I've let Two Weapons be used with Quarterstaff and other suitable
poles (spears, naginata, but not 'cleaver-on-a-stick'), _if_ it were
bought for that purpose, but I like the above better.
