Yeah, it's a good question whether gargoyle fists count as weapons or not, also for purposes of whether unarmed gargoyles can Defend, for instance.

Same questions for dragon claws (who could really use some way to increase their claw damage, which is really anemic for their ST and size. (One-hex gargoyle does 2d, same as a ST 60 7-hex dragon claw? While a ST 30 4-hex dragon claw only does 2d-2?)

Also now that gargoyles come in a small PC size with ST 13 compared to the normal adult arena gargoyles which are ST 20, it seems to me there should probably be some effects of ST on gargoyle damage.

And I do actually like the idea of some fighting skills that some gargoyles (and dragons etc) could use, but I don't think one "if you don't get it, you made a mistake" 1-point IQ 7 talent for +2 is a great version of it.

Hmm, but this is really starting to become a House Rules topic.
