[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 4699196, member: 57383"] [FONT=Arial]Here's my proposal for Pin Underfoot. First, I'd add a kick attack: [/FONT][INDENT][FONT=Arial][B]Attack:[/B] Bite +20 melee (3d6+18/ 19-20) or kick +19 melee (2d6+6)[/FONT] [FONT=Arial] [B]Full Attack:[/B] Bite +20 melee (3d6+18/ 19-20) and kick +14 melee (2d6+6)[/FONT] [/INDENT][FONT=Arial] I didn't change the +1½ damage bonus of the bite attack, there are precedent for multiple natural weapons with a "big damage" bonus. [/FONT][INDENT][FONT=Arial][B]Pin Underfoot (Ex):[/B] [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]When a [I]Tyrannosaurus[/I] hits an opponent with a kick attack it may try to pin its opponent to the ground provided its foe is either of a smaller size category than the [I]Tyrannosaurus[/I], or the same size category and in the prone condition. This requires a successful grapple check and does not provoke an attack of opportunity. A [I]Tyrannosaurus[/I] must release an opponent from its Pin Underfoot if it wants to move, it can not use a grapple check to move with its opponent unless it holds them with its jaws. As long as it can maintain its pin, the [I]Tyrannosaurus[/I] gains a +4 circumstance bonus to a bite or Worry attack directed at its pinned opponent. If the pinned opponent is the same size or one size less than the [I]Tyrannosaurus[/I], they both suffer the normal consequences of grappling (flat-footed, no threatened squares, no move). If the pinned foe is two or more size categories smaller than the [I]Tyrannosaurus[/I], the [I]Tyrannosaurus[/I] is not considered flat-footed relative to other opponents and can threaten adjacent squares normally, although it still cannot move.[/FONT][/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
