{{stub}} |
|||
A melee range combat maneuver used from [[Hiding skill|hiding]]. The attack is more often used to for training rather than for offensive purposes. |
|||
Originally the attack needed to be preceded by the {{com|Ambush}} command(e.g. {{tt|AMBUSH SLICE}}), but now you just need to enter the desired attack and the game will default to Ambush if you're in hiding. |
|||
==Thief Ambushes== |
