Good stuff. There is a history paper by Elliot Gorn on this and it's worth reading as well.

Thanks! This one here, I presume?

A quick perusal seems to suggest that Targeted Attack (Brawling Kick/Groin) and Stamp Kick ought to be added to my the list of techniques.

Yes that's it. I believe this was incorporated into Martial Arts in some way.

That is a fantastic style and is totally going to wind up in the After The End campaign I'm starting next week (that'll be a vicious bunch of gangbangers!).

Ha! Thanks!

That name is excessively appropriate to the subject.
