Sorry for (yet-another) newbie question but I can't get past a logic check here.
Do all large creatures take up 4 squares on a grid? Do you just center then on an intersection?
I suppose for a 10 ft tall massive troll that makes some sense but what about a large wolf? It seems he would make more sense being 10 ft long but only 5 ft wide and 5ft tall.

I've tried referring to the spell area charts in the PFCRB but they really don't work to show the amount of space creatures occupy or worst their reach.

Obviously this works for anything larger than a medium creature, but I can scale the answer to fit :)

While trying to figure out the wildshape rules< I came across this in a forum:
"The number of attacks you make while wild shaped depends on the number of natural weapons your shape has. If you wild shape into a Deinonychus, you can make 4 attacks, 1 talon, 2 claws, and 1 bite. If you wild shape into a Constrictor Snake, you can only make 1 attack, a bite."

No one on the forum commented on this- but it can't be right, can it?? it reads as though you could make 4 attacks in a single round.
I mean, most classes have different options for their attacks, that doesn't translate into being able to use all of them.
The only bonus I see to this is having more options for a full round attack.

I know this is probably a dumb questions- but if thats the case it should be an easy answer.
If a druid summons a magical beast (say an owl bear) to attack an incorporeal creature (say a wraith)- will it do damage? I know the book says that an incorporeal creature will take damage from "creatures that strike as magical weapons", but I have no idea what that's referring to. Does the owlbear's natural attack count as a magical attack since it, itself is magical?
What is the druid only summons a standard animal instead of a magical beast? Is the animal considered magical because it has been summoned magically?
