For the life of me can't seem to find the rule if one even exists, for the cap on attacks from one form to another.

example:
dragon has BAB of +33, if say it turned into human form as per spell/alternate form descriptions. Does this mean it actually has 7 Attacks per round with a sword!

Is this accurate, and is thier a cap on number of attacks per round with a weapon that is not epic character?

any assistance would be appreciated!

Your number of attacks stop once you reach epic level (at least 20 HD).

No matter the Bab of a level 30 Cleric he can't get 4 attacks/round.

You still get extra Bab each level you would get it, but no more attacks.

If Dragons have full bab than as a human they'd have 4 attacks/round. And according to Dragon type they do have full bab.

Anyone with more than 20 HD is epic. So Caps aren't neccesary. Yes, dragons can be epic too.
