Combat
Yangchuanosaurus normally rushes at it’s opponent and catches it in it’s Snatch attack, then throws it if possible.
Improved Grab (Ex) To use this ability, a Yangchuanosaurus must hit an opponent of up to one size smaller with its bite attack. It can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity
Swallow Whole (Ex) A Yangchuanosaurus can try to swallow a grabbed opponent of up to two sizes smaller by making a successful grapple check . The swallowed creature takes 2d8+8 points of bludgeoning damage and 8 points of acid damage per round from the Yangchuanosaurus’ gizzard. A swallowed creature can cut its way out by using a light slashing or piercing weapon to deal 25 points of damage to the gizzard (AC 15). Once the creature exits, muscular actioncloses the hole; another swallowed opponent must cut its own way out. A Yangchuanosaurus can hold of Adult 2 medium, 4 small, 16 Tiny and so on in its Gizzard.
