Good idea.
Maybe not in the book, but here:
JUNGLE rules summary
The referee is the final arbiter.
When in doubt, roll 1d20.
The higher the roll, the better the result. Skilled characters do more and better with the same number, compared to unskilled ones.
Sometimes the ref will decide to roll a d20 against yours.
If you roll low, suffer consequences. This is handled narratively.
Destiny Points let you either reroll, or you can avoid injury with them. One is usually enough, but the referee decides, according to the established narrative.
Weak opponents take one hit to die or be knocked out.
Stronger opponents have Destiny Points like player characters.
Hey, great to hear you're enjoying my game! Well, there *might* be Wizards who, for some reason, can't cast spells per se, but have powers that mimic spells... for instance:
A Wizard with arcane protection ("arcane armor") who is able to enhance the effects of magic items simply by touching them. This Wizard rolls two spells: Sleep, and Shadow Walk. Now, we know s/he can't cast spells (because the player didn't pick or roll the move "1. Cast Spells"), but somehow, this Wizard still has the ability: maybe it's a PSI-like thing, or maybe those "spells" are beings he tamed.
The difference is in the narration, and it's also in scope: A Wizard without that move "1. Cast Spells" can't learn spells from a book, in my game. In your game, of course, this might be perfectly possible.
Does this make sense?
Hi Psytek,
some time in the future, I'll update the file... other than that, feel free to surf over to our original Free Kriegspiel Revolution Discord: https://discord.gg/fQGah4s
You'll get answers there!
Hey Rattlemayne,
I've done it again – I tinkered with MoldHammer… to play Warhammer first edition with it :)

Thanks for this great game!

Just to give you an idea of what we mean when we say "background kit", this is a table of 12 archetypical Cyberpunk classes:
d12 Cyberpunk backgrounds
The number in brackets is the number of skills, powers or items of the class you MUST pick before play.
- Cops (2): Big revolver, kevlar vest, shotgun, close-quarters combat and firearms training, authority, shady business on the side.
- Max Tac Agents (2): Huge pistol, combat armor, close-quarters combat and firearms training, no hesitation to kill
- Corporates (2): Black credit card, holdout pistol, connections, first responder team subscription, dark secret
- Fixers (2): Pistol, knows people, ziplock filled with drugs, secret warehouse, knows how to streetdeal
- Medias (2): Recording suite, connections, holdout pistol, selection of fashionable uppers and downers, credibility, knows too much
- Netrunners/Crystaljocks/Deckers (2): Cyberdeck, self-coded and swapped apps, cramped hoarder apartment, piece of software from the Swede, high IQ, citizen of the net
- Med-Techs/Street Docs (2): small clinic, variety of illegal combat drugs and boosters, B-grade cyberware spareparts, a real doctor

- Nomads (2): road hog, gun, knife, brawler, can rely on his tribe, violent past

- Solos/Ex-Soldiers/Street Samurai (2): arsenal of weapons, tactical gear, close-quarters combat, firearms and explosives training, nice pension, combat sense

I've followed your games ever since you started tweaking Into the Odd, and I liked what you came up with. A few days ago, I discovered MoldHammer on your blog – and I really like it. I'd say you could play D&D with MoldHammer right out of the box, but way faster. Very cool. Thank you for sharing!
P.S.
I'll add the six traditional stats, but without mechanical consequences. Plus, I'll use d6 saves for non-life-threatening tasks, but I'll probably have the players roll d20 saves vs. their stats in really nasty situations.
Hey folks,
I just released It's All Just Saves From Here On Out, my new universal roleplaying game. It's really fast, and character creation is a snap.
Feedback is very welcome, as always!
