Title: Fists of Asphalt: Apocalypse Martial Arts
Post by: cyphoderus on April 14, 2014, 10:18:44 AM

This is something I wrote some time ago. It's not exactly a hack, I think, because all the changes are superficial; it's more like an extensive reskin of the weapons system.

The inspiration came years ago when I read the first (second?) edition of GURPS Martial Arts. There's a session toward the end where they give suggestions for campaign settings that justify dedicated martial arts rules. One of them was a post-apocalyptic setting. It's ideal: guns and weapons aren't readily available, and society is reduced to its primitive forms where violence is currency.

Here is the PDF.

Nice piece of work!  Now I want to start a whole 'nother campaign! 
The move names are evocative and humorous.  Love it.
