Fists. Only the Front Rank benefits, meaning I generally only get two extra attack (characters sitting in the 3rd slot), so the Ironfist is better to give me parry and +1 Arm.

Wouldn't additional hand weapons help with all the ranks?

I'm not sure if anything benefits from AHW in supporting. Is there a MI around with 2 attacks? Compared to shields and halberds and spears and such, they never seem to be a very good option.

XHW, the most useless upgrade in all of WHFB. Universally sucking accross all army books.
It was good in 7th because only the front rank ever got to fight(except spears) so XHW really did double your damage output.
On characters its not a bad idea though. And Maneaters can make use of them(because you can just give them to the front rank)

Agreed.
In fact it is a useful option on anything that doesn't have access to a shield.
