It's well within common usage that a player that will do something is going
to take a specified action or take an action that causes a specified
condition in a timely fashion. I think that's intuitive enough.

I'm not 100% convinced that having a hybrid keyword is necessary when two
non-hybrid keywords effectively explain it and it only comes up in the
rules once, but I think it makes enough sense if WILL gets further use in
the rules later.
