	Aim is like Wait -- you can stop aiming (and sacrifice your aim) if something happens. Example: You declare Aim at the Bad Guy across the room. He spins and starts running at you and has enough move to Slam you on his turn. You can sacrifice your Aim and fire. This only works for finger-twitch missile weapons like crossbows, bows, and guns -- not an axe or shuriken. If you want to wait until Bad Guy gets closer, you can wait til he's two yards away -- to fire when he's even closer but before he slams you requires a Will Check (Combat Reflexes gives +1, with a penalty equal to the bonus you would receive for the reduced range).
