    At 2 for 1. That is, a maneuver with +2 DC (such as Martial Strike) adds +1 DC to Killing Attacks. Offensive Strike (which is +4 DC) would add +2 DC to a Killing Attack.

    Thanks, I would still love the page number on Zen Archery, it sounds like something that would help me a lot. My UMA doesn't seem to have it, and i'm wondering if I got a defective copy (such things have happened before).

    Zen Archery is Kyujustsu (as stated in first paragraph of Zen Riflery), and is page UMA43. Zen Riflery is page UMA73-74.

    Right, I found both of those, but not the pin or grab manover someone talked about being under Zen Archery.

    Only time I see Zen Archery mentioned was by me, mentioning that it existed in UMA and might be helpful to you as well as Zen Rifle.

    As pointed out it is actualy called Kenjutsu (Sp)

    Grab is not available in ranged MA, the best you can do is a throw and say the F/X is that the guy gets pinned until he removes the arrow/knife/whatever (Same as getting up)

    Disregard, D-Man said it, but I don't see it in mine either...

    To bad, it sounded very cool, but at least my copy isn't defective.

    Roll your own

    You can (with GM permission) always make your own, as per p.88+ of UMA. An example would be:
    "Pin to the Wall" 3 pts 1/2ph +0OCV +0DCV Grab opponent +0 STR
    Q: "It's not safe out here! It's wondrous, with treasures to satiate desires both subtle and gross. But it's not for the timid."
