About grappling with multiple attacks, it's a big mess and I couldn't find any source within easy reach that would explain the situation so some questions:
- Can a mantis initiate multiple grapple checks in a round (while grappling)? I ruled: yes but not as replacements to a (sub)set of natural attacks (claw/claw/bite-5). Rather, it's "unarmed attack" since its bab is +6/+1, i.e. second grapple with -5.
EDIT: this is somewhat supported by official faq, here: http://archive.wizards.com/default.asp?x.../20050322a
- Can a mantis improved-grab with two claws? I ruled: yes, and if both succeed then the victim is pinned instead. (alternative is resolving first claw attack then ... then what?)
Your opinions are welcome!
