[QUOTE="angry monkey, post: 1765817, member: 23915"] I'm with you on that one - hey wait a minute Or for that matter, wait 110 minutes! It's only 10:10 in California! Arrrrrrgh. Well, as I feared, I now think that The Darn Tiny Blue (as Pirate Smurf is known in these waters) was onto somethin' when he started all this talkin' he did. I was afraid that when I stepped out onto the Poopdeck an' yelled out: "I say he may be wrong" I'd end out on the wet side of an oar... It was a quote, an' I found it. Plain as th' hook on the end o' me arm. It mentions nothin' about bein' able to flurry, or use two-weapon-fighting style to grapple with different parts of yer body, no bonuses for bein' good lookin (that's the one that's gonna cost me a mint when these rules get all straightened out), no bonuses fer tryin' to bring 40 pounds of sheep meat with ya into Japan (the only Kiwi I ever met sober almost spent time in a Japanese prison because one of the bags they brought with them into the country had only meat in it. Cool/weird at the same time.) All it says is that you can get extra grapple checks if you have extra attacks due to a high BAB. Plus, to take it another step in a different direction, even if you consider Unarmed Strike to be a weapon like ... thingy, and unarmed strike to be just hitting someone without a weapon in your hands, then you would be left at the spot where that Darn Pequeno De Azul* started at (i.e. NO, you can't flurry). See, a grapple isn't a strike. You're not hitting someone, you're squeezing or twisting them. There's no "blow" to flurry... *sorry, bastardizing language again. Roughly translated means "little blue guy", which I assume is what Pirate Smurf is known as in the Spanish Seas. [/QUOTE]
