[QUOTE="OnlineDM, post: 5478433, member: 90804"] The exact wording of the Effect line of the power reads: I interpret it as saying that if Bob gets a crit, everyone but Bob can make a basic attack. If you get a crit, everyone but you can make a basic attack. It's worded to make it clear that the power applies to everyone, but I personally don't interpret it as saying that it trumps the "no opportunity actions on your own turn" rule. If it were intended to let you make the attack on your own turn, I think they would have worded as a free action rather than an opportunity action. Edit: Jester brings up a good point about a crit on an attack that occurs on someone else's turn, such as an attack that the Warlord himself grants. If an ally crits on that attack, for instance, then yes, it should allowed to make the basic attack - but the Warlord couldn't in that case, because it's the Warlord's turn. [/QUOTE]
