Message: <blockquote data-quote="Shin Okada" data-source="post: 2662505" data-attributes="member: 1956">The rule is not-well written and the intention of the rule can only be guessed.Several month ago (or maybe a year or more?) I made the same question here. No one could find clear rule clarification for it.But at that time the most agreeable intention was,1. It does not let you make a readied attack (that interpretation messes initiative rule too much).2. It does not let you cause double damages against charging opponent unless your weapon is spear and the like.3. But if you can make AoO against it, or you made an attack because of some other reason, your weapon is considered as if readied against charge. So if your weapon is happen to be a spear, halberd and such, it causes double damages.Most people discussing on this topic at that thread had thought this interpretation is a reasonable one and will not cause game balance problems.But this was just an opinion of whom answered in that thread, of course.</blockquote>
