[PnP] Martial Arts EL bonus - Does it apply to missile weapons?

[Alex Koponen]

I am not familiar with a specific skill called Martial Arts. But all
martial skills apply their EL bonus to use of the specific weapon. Some,
like Assassin, apply to all combat rolls regardless of weapon type. If one
has house ruled a generic 'Martial Artist' skill and I were the GM I would
rule that the EL would apply to any weapon the 'Martial Artist' skill
applies to, but only using the greater of the Assassin and Martial Artist
bonus rather than cumulative effect if the character has both.
