Achinca 03-10-06, 03:15 PM	I am sorry for asking such basic DMs questions but I just returned to the game after a 20 year hiatus (kids and marriage). I got the 3 books of core rule and there are two concepts (so far) I cannot master: 1) Attack versus full attack: I am not sure I do not understand the difference. For example a black bear has an attack of claw and a full attack of 2 claws and bite. How do I play one versus the other? 2) Grapple: I cannot grasp the concept in term of playing and what number to use to pin or unpin. I understand the concept perfectly but I do not understand how to administer it. Sorry for being dense about this. Any help is welcome. Thank you.

For example, if that black bear used his full attack (2 claws, one bite), he couldn't move (other than his 5-foot step). I recommend you read the SRD (link above) for more options and clarifications.
