[QUOTE="Aulirophile, post: 5468998, member: 86312"] RAW, it works. Readied actions go off as Immediate Reactions (which cannot be on your turn, so). Your trigger is somewhat questionable, as it is not an observable in-game event, but you can ready to trigger off you saying "go" which is a free action and therefore takeable at any time. I wouldn't do it though. Once you start getting into Readied Action events combat can look a lot like this. "All the Marked Monsters ready an action to charge the wimp in the back on the Defender's Turn (via any of the methods available to make sure they can go exactly then, that won't be the actual trigger)." Defender goes, all the the monsters run past him and he can't do anything about it, even OA them, because you cannot do things like that on your turn. Wimp in the back dies. Wimp in the back was your leader, and you TPK. TL;DR: Yes it works. It also happens to be a bad idea because the DM can benefit more from it, and if you start doing it, so will he. Then you will die.
