The "cannot change their Battle Position" by this card's effect refers to the player manually changing the monster's Battle Position.: Trap Card > Final Attack Orders

If the monster targeted by "Black Rose Dragon"s effect is changed to Attack Position by "Final Attack Orders", then you do not reduce the monster's ATK to 0.: When resolving "Black Rose Dragon"s effect, if the monster is in Attack Position, is the monster's ATK reduced to 0?

"Great Poseidon Beetle" can attack once more only if it selected a monster in Attack Position as an attack target, and that monster was not destroyed by battle.: If a Defense Position monster attacked by "Great Poseidon Beetle" is changed to Attack Position, then can it attack once more?
Example: "Final Attack Orders" is active and the opponent has a "Spirit Reaper" in face-down Defense Position. If "Great Poseidon Beetle" attacks that "Spirit Reaper", then "Great Poseidon Beetle" cannot attack once more, even though "Spirit Reaper" was changed to face-up Attack Position

While "Final Attack Orders" is active, if you attack a face-down Defense Position monster, the monster is changed to Attack Position, then damage calculation is applied with the monster in Attack Position.

While "Final Attack Orders" is active, you can change the Battle Positions of monsters with "Curse of Fiend" or "Little-Winguard", but the Battle Positions are immediately changed back to Attack Position by "Final Attack Orders".

While "Final Attack Orders" is active, effects of "Goblin Attack Force", "Giant Orc", and "Dark Zebra" are resolved, but they are immediately changed back to Attack Position.

8-Claws Scorpion: The effect of "8-Claws Scorpion" is a Trigger Effect that is applied if the condition is correct on activation ("8-Claws Scorpion" declared an attack against a face-down Defense Position monster.) The target monster does not have to be in face-down Defense Position when the effect of "8-Claws Scorpion" is resolved. So if "Final Attack Orders" is active, "8-Claws Scorpion" still gets its 2400 ATK.
