Martial Arts and Naked Advantages

[Foxiekins]

Do the additional damage classes from Martial Maneuvers count as Advantages for the purpose of costing Naked Advantages that apply to your Strength?  I can't find a mention in the books I have, and tried searching the forums also, but nothing seemed to come up...

If a character buys a naked Advantage for an HKA or other attack, he can still apply damage from STR, Martial Maneuvers, velocity, and the like only if he buys the naked Advantage so that it’s powerful enough to cover the whole attack, including damage from additive factors like Martial Maneuvers.

 

So if you want a +1/4 Armor Piercing Naked Advantage to apply to your 1d6 HKA, +4 DCs for Offensive Strike, you need to cover 35 AP, meaning the NA costs 9 point.
