Can you mix having a standard action to attack and a standard action to cast the spell in the same round?

When casting a touch spell you are allowed a free attack to deliver the spell. So in a round you can cast a touch spell, move, and deliver the touch spell with a free attack. Classes like magus use this their advantage constantly.


To my knowledge (and it may even say this under the extra limb discovery) is that having extra limbs doesn't provide extra attacks. So with 3 arms you can wield 3 different weapons and choose to swing with any 2 of them using two-weapon fighting. I assume that the same would be if you were holding 2 bows, you don't get any extra attacks. It could be interesting flavor.

Remember that two-weapon fighting works best with light weapons, so even if it somehow works you would be stacking massive minuses to hit anyway.

Question back for you.. why 4 arms? 3 would allow you to hold two bows and use the 3rd arm to draw each one in turn as you attacked.
