Yeah, my version is a bit less nailed down, but its basically about the same. I haven't really made up much of a list of wounds though, just one or two so I have an idea what they look like. I don't expect there would be a LOT of really different ones anyway, mechanically.

I am basically thinking 1 or 2 mechanically distinct with the rest being flavor will work fine most of the time indeed. Are you slowed because that head wound is throbbing and you are dizzy... or is it because your side cinched up or because pain shooting through your leg, inquiring minds will flavor at will.

I am planning on compiling at least as many Martial Practices for my Martial Power III as there were rituals in the Players Handbook

Practices and Bloodline Rites

Well that is the goal anyway... or at minimum betting the total number up to 50, i will also be fixing practices that are bald faced inferior than fairly close analog rituals.

Planned New Practices (so far)

1. 4th Dimensional Packing
2. Acupressure
3. Aura Manipulation
4. Animal Training:Bringing In The Herd
5. Animal Training:Beast Bond
6. Awaken Aura Reading
7. Blood Bond (blood-rite)
8. Breaching Ram
9. Blood Demand / Blood Oath (blood-rite)
10. Cooking: Condensed Rations
11. Grail Quest (blood-rite)
12. Heroic Exertion perq Martial Mastery
13. Heritage Claim (blood-rite)
14. Martial Mastery
15. Mind Over Matter: Awaken Magic Device
16. Oath of Truthfulness (blood-rite)
17. Psychiatric Treatment
18. Surgery
19. Trained Preparedness
20. Transcendental Meditation
21. Wrestling with Death (blood-rite)

Grandmaster Training

1. Battle Tongue
2. Barrier of Steel

Feats

1. Clockwork Invention -> analogous to alchemy for constructing devices the majority of which are fragile and temporary.

Warlord Modifications

1. Martial Training -> like bardic training a warlord feature may just give him it or perhaps make it a feature of the Hector build Warlord, but I suspect would have just been given if a fully implemented martial practices had been part of the game originally.

Fixed Practices

1. Forge Weapon
2. Forge Armor
3. Speech without words

clockwork Invention may not be part of martial power |||
It and the artificer class sort of point out however that arcane !== wholly magical

The Martial Artist Class will likely get something much like the bard does with martial practices, much like the Bard does.. ie specific practices associated with their flavor may end up free.
