That said, one of the best uses I can think of is when the party is ambushed but the Marshal is not flat-footed (either because s/he made the Spot or Listen checks, or because s/he rolled well for initiative when the "normal" round starts); being able to grant a move action to the others would end their being flat-footed. It is a very specialized circumstance, and likely to be a bit diluted by varying results of who is and is not surprised, and who rolled well or poorly for initiative. A second scenario is one I had occasion to play recently. Planning to assault a dragon's lair (with a large party), I used the ability get everyone moving quickly into the lair and dispersed enough not to make an easy breath-weapon target. By granting an extra move action at the top of the round, our party was able to essentially double-move and still be able to ready attacks.</blockquote>
