Game Helpfile

Syntax: AIM [ranged weapon] at [target]
        or FACE your target while holding a ranged weapon and AIM

The AIM verb allows you to point a ranged weapon at a creature,
a player, or in certain areas a target.

When firing through a portal (such as a battlement), the syntax is:

  AIM [target] [portal noun]

You can also AIM mangonels on ships to target other ships.

Use

Using this command will begin the process of aiming. During this process, the amount of skill used in the shot begins at approximately 75% (needs exact verification) and, upon receiving the message that further aiming will do no good, will use approximately 125%. Shots that are not AIMed at all use the base 75%.

Shields and Bows

If using a Long Bow, Composite Bow, or Short Bow, a worn shield will increase the load time of the arrow, as well as apply a penalty to hit.
