[QUOTE="Vraille Darkfang, post: 2647696, member: 16989"] At htis point.... My answer would drift into house rules. I understand that the rules about Monk's not using natural attacks with flurry is to prevent the wierd Druid turing into a Ninja T-Rex, but it strains my game world pseudo-realism at the expense of a (very) minor rules issue. For Example: Let's say I have a race of Badger People (or the new spiky people in Magic of Incarnum) and these people have Natural Attacks. I if give them a eastern (by way of Hollywood westernism) ideology and system of Martial Arts..... Why would their martial art-NOT be compatable with their natural weapons. Much like Kung-fu uses a person's natural abilites, so would a Martial Art developed by a race with natural weapons. For my games, I let Natural Weapons count as unarmed. Since a race with a Martial Art & Natural Weapons would include the Natural Weapons within the art (or at least some schools of it). If I smelled Cheese drifting off a player, I might make him take a Feat to combine Natural Attacks with Monk Abilities. But, this drifts into house rules, away from the players request from offical info. I don't know of any. Others have doe a good deal showing how the rules work, officially. As there is never any disagreement as to how the rules work 'Offically.' ;) [/QUOTE]
