But in v2.2, pretty much a karate expert and a kung fu expert both simply have high hand-to-hand scores.

OK, I changed my mind. I'll bet there are some of you who have already come up with a system that allows variations in martial arts.
Cyberpunk 2020 did some interesting things with martial arts and melee. Actually I'm just being lazy and haven't checked back to the start of the thread and I have a sneaking suspicion that CP 2020's system has been mentioned on this forum before. CP 2020's melee and martial arts system aren't as good as the system we used in my last T2K campaign but as far as fairly roolz-lite goes CP 2020's system isn't bad.
