Cleave / Great Cleave Clarification?

[Aranai]

I'm having some slight difficulty understanding exactly how Cleave/Great Cleave work. Is the act of using (Great) Cleave a replacement for your normal attack chain, or is it effectively a bonus attack on one or more enemies in range?

Replacement. It's a standard action to use Cleave. So no full attack, etc.

That's what I thought, thanks for clarifying.
