    This tag proposal (NUMATTACKS or BASEATTACKS) would determine how many non-iterative attacks a given Natural Attack gets. I'm leaning towards NUMATTACKS.
    Consideration for Canine Companions in 3.5 getting a secondary attack at -5 (Like an iterative attack) needs to be discussed

-KEY Features:
+  NATURALATTACK:x|y|z
-* This grants an automatic Proficiency with the Object Name (Might need to place a PROFICIENCY:NATURAL|Name for code purposes, must consult coder) Ideally, even if the object called is using a Unique Name - 'Claw ~ Dragon' it will use the Object Name like it does today.
+  * x = PRIMARY or SECONDARY
-* The first X is considered Primary, all additionals will be considered Secondary.
+  * y = Key Name of Natural Attack (Referenced to actual object in NaturalAttack File)
-* MULTIPLES of the Tag may be used to allow for more than one "primary" attack

		+	* JUST A NOTE, this syntax seems counter productive and backwards. If I could have this tag altered globally to EQMOD:x\|x.y that would fit the existing syntax we already use. Heck, I'll propose a new tag for it. Unless James sees fit to allow a modification of this by the conversion deal, but I'm not holding my breath, this is a modification of a working tag, and low on the priority list.
