There IS a reason for the wording difference.

It was meant to help make it clear that you CANNOT use Piling On when you are the Defender and the Attacker skulls out. This is not the case with Mighty Blow and Claw. Thus the different wording. It was trying to make it clear that it was different from the other two when the shoe was on the other foot of the block.

NOW you can argue that it should have been worded better ... but that is why the difference. During a Block means either attacker or defender can use it. The "after he has made a block" was to make it clear because the Defender does not "MAKE" a block ... he suffers the blocks (or receives the block) ... so it makes a difference from DURING a block.

Again .... maybe it could have been worded better but that was the reason. Just remembered it after thinking on it more.
That makes more sense. Thanks. I do think it could have been worded better but am also aware of the limitations you were working under. Good to get it clear, though.
