Re: Main-gauche vs. Dagger
Me and my friends characters never carried extra gear except in packs or bags that could be dropped on a moments notice, melee turn #1. A pouch of coins or jewels would be all we retained besides our weapons. We never fought with any encumbrance other than the base rate for armor worn. Who would fight otherwise? If the fight went badly and you were forced to run, that satchel of gold bars was expendable. Food and camping gear was even more expendable.
(Exception: our parties might carry everything plus the kitchen sink on long outdoor adventures, but on pack animals or in a cart, not on our persons.)
