After a couple weeks of hunting for various high end one-hand/main-hand weapons, I've secured two maces that I particularly like. Thus, I've decided to dual wield with Mace Specialization.
This provides a more frequent Mace Specialization proc, as well as superior rage generation.
This also means my weapon damage for my main hand will be far less than that of a two-handed weapon's, meaning my Mortal Strikes, Overpowers, and Whirlwinds will do significantly less damage.
I seek to rectify this by using weapon-switch macros and/or mods to address this.
The idea is to dual wield to build rage and do basic damage, and then use a macro'd skill button to swap out my duals for my two-handed weapon when I want to use Overpower, Mortal Strike, or Whirlwind, and then automatically switch them back.
This will combine the best of both worlds (dual-wielding providing fast damage and frequent stuns, and the raw power of two-handed weaponry.) However, I don't know where to start on how to macro these things up, or whether or not a simple mod already does this for me.
Any ideas or links would be appreciated.

I've been using the Weapon Quick Swap and UseByName mods from here: http://capnbry.net/wow/
I've tried to do a few that will then cleave or overpower afterwards but with only mild success because of wierd timings with the equiping. So I'm currently using the quick swap on one button then hitting the key for the overpower or whatever by hand as opposed to the macro doing the equip, the skill then the re-equip.
