The Black Hack - System Reference Sheet -
This is the first in a series of - System Reference Sheets - which collects the rules of a hack-able RPG game system.  The Black Hack by David Black has caused a small but vastly creative surge among OSR/SWORDDREAM creators and many writers have adapted the rules since then. The complete text of the first edition is available online here: https://the-black-hack.jehaisleprintemps.net/ This sheet is intended as a reference while gaming and a seed for hacks as well. All setting relevant text like character classes, items, monsters and spell lists were excluded. The full PSD file and a PDF are ready for download. Enjoy.
