Improved Unarmed Strike and Barfights


Rules Questions

Sovereign Court

Just looking for some opinions on the matter.

Improved Unarmed Strike lets you consider yourself armed even when not holding a weapon. And anyone normal and unarmed provokes an attack of opportunity when trying to punch someone who's armed.

So the way I'm reading this, if I have Improved Unarmed Strike, and someone who doesn't tries to hit me unarmed, I get an attack of opportunity.

Anyone else read it differently? If so, why?

Nope, you got it right.


Just don't start fights in any Monk bars and you're fine.

Note to self - kicking butt at noodle shops is out. Gotcha.


Hint: improvised weapons ;)
