Can grappling be attempted with each hand?

[tylermo]

I'm at the mercy of a power-gaming session. The players are trying to take neagtives with each hand to make two grapple attacks. The rules don't specifically say one or two-handed for grapples. Thoughts? I say one attempt per round. I have never had the consult the forums for rules so many times in 5 minutes time. Uugghh

Since it is a full round action, only one attack action can be taken, so yes, plus its relatively clear your pinning BOTH arms, etc... so its pretty clear you need two of your arms to pin both of the opponents. If they want to argue that, have them show how they can do it with one arm, while the opponent is resisting...

Time to kick these players out of your house and tell them to come back when they are ready to behave themselves ...

I'd like to see that one myself.

Mr. T had kindly agreed to demonstrate



But it's not a question of penalties; it's not dual weapons against one foe, it's an attack. If they for some reason get two attacks maybe they can try two grapples.

For me, grapples are their own punishment. If you grapple someone, they are also grappling you. You are all "in a grapple"

[Relaxo]

just stand up and try it....

NO not allowed.
Or if tey're munchkins, just say they don't have the prerequiste feats... and then never write them.
