They actually have kick animation?

Lol, It's because the monk's punch-kick animations are it's double handed weapons animation. That's why monks arn't allowed any double-handed weapons in BG2.

How to get kick-attacks with a monk in IWD2
- Tested very shortly with IWD2 v2.01
- Works only with humans (and subraces probably)
- The author hasn't tested what would happen if you gave your monk armor or weapons
1. Download both Near Infinity and Dale Keeper 2.
2. Use Dale Keeper 2 to change your monk's appearence from 'Fighter Male Human' to 'Monk Male Human' (from 'Fighter Female Human' to 'Monk Female Human').
3. With Near Infinity extract the BAM-files 'CHMM1A2.BAM' and 'CHMM1A4.BAM' for males and the BAM-files 'CHFM1A2.BAM' and 'CHFM1A4.BAM' for females.
4. Rename 'CHMM1A2.BAM' to 'CHMM1A1.BAM' and 'CHMM1A4.BAM' to 'CHMM1A3.BAM' for males; 'CHFM1A2.BAM' to 'CHFM1A1.BAM' and 'CHFM1A4.BAM' to 'CHFM1A3.BAM' for females. This will probably cause those two fist attacks not to be performed but who cares.
5. Put the renamed files into your override folder.
- There is no method for non-human races as there are no animations available (which was appearently the reason the monk from BG2 wasn't enabled).
