A few recent examples: *"Chomper moves next to the door and readies an attack for the first enemy to come through the threshold." (Party is retreating around a corner, trying to break off combat; Chomper is a rogue dire squirrel who is already hidden.)*Ready an attack with my bow for the first orc to attack one of us. (Party isn't sure of potential enemies' intentions-  are they hostile?)*Ready to cast command on the first enemy that approaches the badly wounded pc.*Ready to shut the door when the last pc enters the room (closing the enemies outside). *Ready to shove the prone bad guy after he stands up (and thereby knock him prone again).I find that some pcs use it poorly- last session the wizard readied a big AoE for when the first stirge reached the party instead of just hammering them before they all flew down from the ceiling- but it's very often quite effective, especially for tactically-minded players.</blockquote>
