OK, first of all, bear with me. It's 4 am and i'm fading fast.

Now then. Martial arts come with 9 maneuvers and it looks to me like you can learn one for every 2 skill points you have in that martial art. Does this mean you must have a martial art skill at 18 just to get all the maneuvers? And what about learning maneuvers with, say, edged weapons like in pentjak-silat or ninjutsu? It looks to me like Cannon Companion is telling me that to get all that, i could concievably need a skill of 36. 18 for the basic maeuvers and 18 to be able to use them with edged weapons. If so, DAMN.
