There is more too it than this though. The PCs don't really ever get an advantage out of this, except to the extent that the gargoyle burning a turn doing nothing helps them. The gargoyle uses its turn doing stone form, and then Alice and Bob use theirs readying. This is good tactics but not giving any action advantage. Once their actions are triggered the gargoyle goes, and THEN they get their next turns, now in the new turn order. Given that they would have gone next ANYWAY The only advantage here is getting in ahead of whatever move and minor actions the garg was going to use after its attack.There ARE obviously tactical advantages to ready (and delay now and then), but at the very least you risk getting less actions, 1/2 of a standard action per use of ready on average.</blockquote>
