No, that's why it's still better to have 50 % in "Mace" than sword 88%+my MA skill version on 30%.

So you don't need enhancement in effectiveness in frame of mind when conserning the body + an impliment as a weapon, then. (I'm repeating myself now, and we can end it here if you want to as it seems neither of us is able to convince the other...)

-And remember that I still want it this way, just letting it apply to weapons use as well +the bonus of the possebility to use the MA as a backup -general fighting skill that can be resorted to if you need to pick up a chairleg, cup, etc. to fight with; just see how good chacky chan's characters is at improvising with his surroundings when fighting foes. Is he in those situations usin Martial arts, or the skills "Refridgerator", "Cementmixer" etc?
I just can't see why differing between using the fist, kick, grapple and headbutt skills and the rest of the fighting skills. To me, that's unnatural and unlogical.
