Move Creation Workshop

[Trixie]

So I figured martial arts were taken as read as part of Physical Strength, with skill covered by TEC, damage by ATK and ability to parry swords with DEF, should I instead be looking at buying something like this to compete with sword-users?

Turtle Hermit Martial Arts
(1200 OM)
As a master of Turtle Hermit Martial Arts, Goku can use his whole body as a potentially lethal weapon! He can punch, kick and throw his opponents around in an impressive and often-painful way (within the limits of his basic ATK stat). If he is aware of attacks, Goku can use his arms and legs to defend himself from them (although if his DEF stat  is not markedly higher than his opponent, it will still hurt). Goku can fight for hours before wearing himself out if all he is doing is sticking to his basic punches, kicks and throws.

Nothing so complicated. You could make a defensive move that infuses his body parts with energy on the fly letting you catch, block, deflect, and divert bladed attacks without risk of bodily harm or laceration. It'd be similar to my Close Quarters Shielding. Think of the scene where Goku uses his finger to fight Trunks after he gets back from Yardrat. CQS was just 300 OM too.
