*because it makes the math neater

My group has experiment with letting people buy Gun Weapons as DX/A skill and Sword Weapons (or Impact, or Pole, etc) weapons as a DX/H skill. It makes it a little easier to be a master of multiple weapons, especially weapons that have both one-handed and two-handed attack modes, without going to the extremes of Wildcard skills.
I've also introduced a Master of Arms talent that covers all melee weapons for 10 points a level. The combination of the two lets you be a DX+3 master of every melee weapon for around 50 points. After that, you need to start raising DX.
