Note that the AMBUSH verb is different from the Ambush skill. It is not necessary to use the AMBUSH verb in order to get the stance pushdown and critical weighting benefits provided by the Ambush skill, it is only necessary to attack from hiding.

USAGE: AMBUSH [target] [location]

  [target] will default to your current TARGET, or a random creature if you have not set a target.
  [location] will default to your AIM preference if set.  You may also specify CLEAR to force an unaimed attack.

See the AIM article for more information how aiming interacts with AMBUSH.
