You've nothin' to apologize for--this forum's here to hash these things out. 

Thanks Bubba - I'd just hate being a party to confusing the rules for someone no matter how pure my intentions.

TK, I don't interpret that section the way you do, but I can see the need to tighten up the FAQ in regards to Brace, Leap and Stand Fast.

I'll see what I can do.

Mr. Slater....(sigh) Just so we are clear, Coil had it right. Here it is again...

1 - Leap goes before a normal Countercharge and before Stand Fast.
2 - Brace will strike before a Leap.

Josh works in a law office in case it didn't show... ;) Good question though seriously.

I was confused already; one thing I love about this forum is that there is intelligent discourse about the rules for people like me.  No one's just given me the "just read the rules" smackdown.  As for your worrying about your intentions, well, the applaud button's workin'.  Tag.

Suddenly I am faced with telling The Big Kahuna he is wrong or admitting that I erred. Since I like Thom and since he did write the rules I accept his call on the play. I also forgot to factor the spears 1" reach into my interpretation. Whatever the reason I was wrong in my interpretation and apologize if it confused anyone.

Well now that that's settled it's back to the drawing board for Bill (Stygian Warrior)'s horde.  I'll have to rethink my tactics.  And pray.  Hard.

I'm not a lawyer, I only play one on television.  Or when I'm breakin' Thom's stones.

Well, this can count as method #1 to countering the Stygie Leaps...make an army of Spearmen that can Brace. (And back them with ranged attacks)

 Actually, Another good way to  counter Leap (and Brace by the way) is Thrown Weapon.  This is good fer the SOK's who don"t  (currently) have Brace.  The Veridian Lords are reeeal good at this in my experiance.

 :P There aren't any SoK with Brace.
Kinda depressing that the newer models for the Tribal Warriors boast this big spears but they only use them for throwing.

This is how the game author stated it, but it's been a while.

Well that clears that up. :)

I always thought Brace should go before Leap, jsut found a use for my Elvish Spearmen! ;D

Thanks for going to all the trouble.
