Martial were also really big on Reliable powers, powers that are not expended if you miss with them. Really cool concept there.
Martial Power 2 introduced new keywords with the powers: Rattling and Invigorating (Or was that in Martial Power 1?) that were a neat concept. If you are train in Intimidate and hit with a Rattling power, you impose a -2 to that creature's next attack roll, and if you are trained in Endurance and hit with an Invigorating power, you gain temp HP. The Battlerager Fighter was basically a martial Barbarian. It made your skill choices a bit more integral to your play style in combat and gave you an interesting build to dip into or go all in with.
Only martial power got a second source book during the pre-Essentials run...
