[QUOTE="MeMeMeMe, post: 4277738, member: 68069"] I agree it can be read that way, though that inyterpretation didn't occur to me before. The way I read it is, "An opportunity action takes place before the target finishes its [b]action[/b]" where action is a standard action, move action, or minor action. In this case, it's always a move action. So the action is, move some number of squares. After moving into the adjacent square triggers this opportunity attack, the rest of the movement (if any) is interrupted, the attack is resolved, and then any movement remaining is taken. I think you're using the definoition of interrupt as defined in the immediate interrupt section, wheres the opportunity action is using interrupt in its plain English meaning: you move here, someone says, "hold it, stop there, I get my attack!", the attack is resolved, and movement continues. I'm not 100% certain though. [/QUOTE]
