This article is meant as a repository for Martial Arts Stunts, including non-combat Styles such as Mental Training. It's going to be a long article, divided into many sections, possibly with sub-sections.

Stunt Slots

This table gives the total (not added) number of Stunt Slots for each Style Skill Level. To find the added number of Slots at any given Skill Level, simply take the value from that Level, and subtract the value for the previous Level. The easiest way to keep track of Stunt Slots, in the long term, is to track the total number of Slots, and the total number of used Slots.

Notes
1 2 2 3
2 4 4 6
3 6 6 9 Black Belt 1st dan is Skill 5 and Style 3, so a weapon user has 6 Stunt Slots at 1st dan, while an unarmed black belt has 9 Slots.
4 8 8 12
5 10 11 15 Here advanced training begins to pay off for the mid tier
6 12 14 18
7 14 17 21 With a Style Skill of 7 and a Use Skill of 8, your character has performed kung fu. Congratulations!
8 16 21 27 Bonus slots given to Mid (+1) and High (+3) as a sort of "Elite Effect"
9 18 24 30
10 20 28 36 Again an Elite Effect for Mid (+1) and High (+3) tier
11 22 31 39
12 24 34 42
13 26 37 45
14 28 40 48
15 30 43 51
16 32 46 54 Keep in mind, nobody is going to develop a Style Skill, or indeed any other Skill, to this Level. Skill Level 12 is Legendary and Skill Level 14 is Mythical. What does that make Skill Level 16? Absurd?

This table defines which Skills belong to which tier, and gives a complete list of the Non-Combat Style Skills.

Tier Skills
Low tier Brawling and Wrestling. Also Dodge, Improvised Weapon, and all non-combat Styles
Mid tier All Melee Weapon Skills, including Staff and Shield. Also all Ranged Weapon Skills.
High tier Judo and Karate
Non-combat Styles Combat Wisdom, Mental Training, Movement Style (these are all low tier)

Keep in mind, Brawling and Wrestling do not occupy Style Slots. Neither does Mental Training. A character without the Martial Style Skill has 1 Style Slot; a character with Martial Style Skill has 1 Style Slot per Skill Level.

Melee Weapon Styles

Ranged Styles

Unarmed Styles

Sophisticated and unsophisticated Skills, and Dodge.

Dodge MW 2 Removes the +1 RD penalty for Dodging melee weapon attacks
Dodge Ranged 3 Removes the +1 RD penalty for Dodging ranged attacks
Dodge Animal 3 Removes the +1 RD penalty for Dodging a melee or unarmed attack from a foe with a non-Human morphology
REF Dodge 3 Removes the 1 CFP cost per Dodge
Calm Dodge I 2 Whenever the character Dodges, he gets to choose which hex to move into, instead of rolling 1d6 on the Mat Compass
Calm Dodge II 3 The character does not have to perform a 1-hx move when Dodging
Calm Dodge III 4 The character is not subject to the +3 RD penalty for Dodging while on a narrow ledge or a slippery surface
Dodge NF I 4 No Flanking. The character does not get a +2 RD penalty if there are foes on both sides of him, but is still subject to a +2 RD penalty for Dodging attacks from behind
Dodge NF II 6 No Facing. The character is no longer subject to the +2 RD penalty for Dodging attacks from behind
Total Slots 30 Style Skill 15

REF stands for Reduced Effort. It should be ReF but REF is easier to type.
NF stands for No Flanking or No Facing, and means the ability (in this case Dodge) works better when the character is (I) flanked or when (II) attacks come from behind.

Non-combat Styles

This for Styles that do not give direct offensive or defensive benefits, such as Combat Wisdom and Mental Training, and Movement Style.
