AIM 'PRECISE AIM' 'OPPORTUNITY STRIKE' (2182)

Syntax: All three of these skills are automatic.

The Aim skill denotes special training in landing blows that are timed and
placed to best avoid an attacker's defenses.  A skillful attacker gets more
benefit from their HITROLL as they find the gaps in their opponent's armor
and technique.  Even a full suit of platemail has a number of vulnerable points
accessible to a well-aimed strike.

The Precise Aim skill represents a further refinement of Aim, with similar
and cumulative benefits.

The Opportunity Strike skill represents an unsavory instinct for aiming blows
at an opponent's least protected body parts.  This is most helpful against
a foe who is unevenly armored, or wearing a mixture of armor and clothing.
