Since I'm almost done with my current crop of new martial art styles, I decided to see how well filled out I was in the various areas of the world. Unfortunately it looks like I'll be coming up short for new Middle Eastern styles, so I thought I'd poll the folks of the board and see what new styles they'd like to see from the Middle East.
Vote now, vote often, list as many styles as you can think of.
