Flying Kick and Lion's Pounce

Definately makes those lion/direlion/celestial lion/celestial dire lions even more deadly than before.. tons of attacks that first round, tons.

It's odd, too - not everything in the SRD uses the same terminology for Pounce attacks.

Par example:

SRD said:
Pounce (Ex): If a dragonne charges, it can make a full attack in the same round.

SRD said:
Pounce (Ex): If a leopard charges a foe, it can make a full attack, including two rake attacks.

SRD said:
Pounce (Ex): If a lammasu charges a foe, it can make a full attack, including two rake attacks.

Of course, that's just about all the creatures in the SRD who have a Pounce attack...
 

SRD:
Pounce (Ex): If a deinonychus charges, it can make a full attack.
Pounce (Ex): If a griffon dives upon or charges a foe, it can make a full attack, including two rake attacks.

There are likely a few others as well. Definately doesnt seem to be very standardized, hence why I posted the overall ability from the ability srd ;)

Having rake, pounce and improved grab tends to make for a 'very' nasty encounter.
 

:) Thx everyone.
Yes I meant Psionic Lion's Charge. I believe (in the Mini Book?) there is a Druid spell of the same name and of course the Comp Divine Wildshaping Feat that does the same thing.
While it makes the power more powerful it does prevent the twinkie combo.

Free? requires a power slot, an action, and pp to use. psychic warriors tend to not have a huge amount of pp anyway ;) Plus, if you arent a psychic warrior then it takes a feat to be able to use (in place of the power slot).

I am guessing you mean that you feel the cost is not high enough for what it does. But then, I see it as a way for the psychic warrior to help make up for the attack he loses out on for being behind in BAB. Mileage may vary of course.
Yeah, well, I was referring to what Hyp said afterwards again more explicitely... you make your charge attack and then a full attack action "for free"... sorry for being so ambiguous.

Except the full attack action is defined as separate from the charge action, so no charge-related effects apply to any attack except the one you make as part of the charge.

The augmentation effect is different - as written, it would apply to AoOs as well, for example.
Right, I meant pounce like abilities, not the psionic power discussed here... sorry again for being so ambiguous.

I just wanted to remark that abilities that add to charge damage should be worded like Powerful charge is... otherwise griffons IIRC with the 5 attacks while pouncing... ouch. They were bad enough to my players with the normal attacks.
