I don't see that text. There's a reference to a Wait maneuver as a possibility on page 24, but that's for someone lurking.

...Is there more than one version of the PDF?

Quite possibly...the Attack maneuver case would mean that somebody around the corner could always pop out on their turn and would get the drop on you. (Well, if you use the full rules, they couldn't, because they'd get an arbitrarily-dictated quasi-cascading-waits situation instead.)


I certainly agree that Step and Wait should be allowed.
