Here's something else to consider for Doug's character sheet.
BGC treats Martial Arts as a Talent and only gives you a couple of extra manuevers you can use based on it. Standard Fuzion has 15 Individual Manuevers that cost 2 Option points apiece and offer greater variety in actions. If you like, you can use these manuevers instead of the BGC Martial Arts talent. Here's a thumbnail list of the manuevers and what they do.
Basic Strike: Add 1d6 to your normal STR damage, +2 to DEX
Breakfall: Take 1/2 Normal Falling Damage, regain feet as a Free Action
Defensive Strike: Strike. Adds +1 to REF, +3 to DEX
Ki Strike: Ranged HTH attack at -2 REF. (It's a Ryu fireball. Nobody in DWII, including Doug, is going to be using this one)
Killing Strike: Does Killing Damage at -2d6 to STR, -2 REF
Martial Arts Weapons: Trained in Martial Arts weapons, (tonfa, nunchaku, etc.)
Martial Block: Blocks all but bladed weapons, +2 to REF and DEX
Martial Disarm: Disarm, with a +2 to STR for the manuever
Martial Dodge: Adds +5 to DEX for dodging purposes that Phase.
Martial Escape: Adds +3 STR for escape purposes
Martial Grab: Adds +2 to STR for purposes of the Grab
Martial Throw: (As Martial throw in BGC PG 41, no changes)
Nerve Strike: Does 2d6 Damage, no Stun Defense; -2 REF
Offensive Strike: Adds +2d6 STR Damage, at -2 REF, +1 DEX
Sacrifice Throw: Martial Throw, with +2 to REF, Target and Attacker both Knocked Prone
As you can see, these manuevers give the potential for greater flexibility and power. The idea is to buy the manuevers that best reflect the martial art the character uses. This does get more expensive by far than using the BGC version, though.
I think that if you were going to give Doug these manuevers, it would be fair to retcon the Knight Sabers character sheets and add some for them as well. Or we can figure out what Doug uses for martial arts manuevers, but assume for balance in BGC that he uses BGC Martial Artist talent only.
What do you think?
