Combat Maneuvers and size restrictions


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


What's your opinion on size restrictions?

I feel that they're an unnecessary and redundant mechanic which just shuts down certain builds arbitrarily, since larger opponent already have a higher CMD from their size bonus.
And while I do understand why a Colossus might be a tad unimpressed by a Bull Rush from a house cat, this is a game where the same house cat could have a higher strength score than the Colossus.

What bothers me though, is that some maneuvers just got a free pass.
If you can't Trip an opponent because it is 'too big', how are you able to exert enough force to Disarm them? Or, you know, Grapple them.
