ANother one of these parsing commands that would suck. Are there more specific cases that are interesting, or is it just the one you mentioned above?

So long, and thanks for all the fish!

Does cripple/onslaught work that way? I know that the "dive" ambush is similar, but if I remember correctly, if I tried to "ambush %1 cripple onslaught", when it worked, it would usually still be a weak crippling ambush.

Also, I could see a use for a "disarm/drive/fade" ambush if it would string together correctly. Hit them, then fade into the wilds and go back to get the weapon.

Syntax: ambush <target> <ambush type> <ambush type> ...

Camouflaging themselves in the wilds, rangers are able to deliver powerful
surprise attacks. A straightforward ambush will deliver an attack of immense
power. There are also several variants a ranger may attempt. You may choose
no variants or as many as you wish, though the likelihood of success decreases
with the number of variants you choose.

Think of it this way:

Onslaught adds damage.

Cripple adds crippling, but subtracts a fair bit of damage.

Combine those two and you get an ambush that cripples but probably still doesn't do as much damage as a normal ambush (since, I think, the damage penalty to cripple is greater than the damage bonus from onslaught), and is a lot less likely to land.
