Come at them from the shadows! You'll have the advantage of surprise... unless they've prepared a counter-ambush.

Game Instructions: This is an Elusive! contest. If your opponent is using the Flight to the Flit Gambit, they will be immune to this attack and won't appear in the target list. If you win an Ambush, you may steal your opponent's Knife-and-Candle weaponry - if you lose, they'll steal yours...
