Re: No Move while Readying ?
Exactly. Ready only allows a step, but it also allows the full range of active defenses . . . including defense with whatever it is you just readied. You're quite welcome to create a Move and Ready maneuver, for fighters who don't know Fast-Draw, that allows full Move but denies you the ability to defend with what you're readying and calls for a DX-2 roll to get the weapon out without tossing it. Or an All-Out Ready that denies you all defenses but means you automatically get your weapon whilst running at full Move.
That said, I fail to see why Fast-Draw is so bad. Everybody I've ever played GURPS with handles moving and drawing weapons as a Fast-Draw attempt during a Move maneuver. It seems the most logical choice.
