[QUOTE="lvl 1 fighter, post: 4693623, member: 82716"] Yes. Vertexx69, The reason I don't want to allow it for Island of Blades is because I think it goes against the spirit of the maneuver when used that way. By RAW I concede that your mount could count as your ally, but I'm going with RAI on this one. Well, my interpretation at least.
