There is one thing, though, that I do not like. Some of the Stunts seem like no-brainers to use whenever there's a chance; Unwinded (End), Knock em Down (Acr) especially seemed like this.
Remember unwinded can only be used once per day, and at a DC 30 its hardly automatic. Knock em down I can understand your concerns on, its not one of my favorites either. Basically I went with some "solid" stunts, and then a threw a few extras with some different mechanics just to see how people felt about them.

Btw, with Knock em Down you do have to beat the reflex defense of your enemy.
