Disclaimer
This game’s setting is a grim, hyper-
capitalist cyberpunk city. The ruling system
is therefore intrinsically classist,
exploitative and ableist.
That said, the goal of a Greenjackers game
is to REJECT, FIGHT and DISMANTLE that
system, and build a better world.
Greenjackers rejects ableism, as well as
orientalism, queerphobia and other
reactionary notions that are unfortunately
present in many cyberpunk stories and
games.
Greenjackers does not invite or legitimise
the introduction of bigotry at the table.

CITY GUIDE
“Welcome” to the City
Whether you’ve lived in this city your whole
life, or just arrived from the Wastes, you
don’t really know the truth about this place.
How it came to be, what it’s for and what it
keeps from us. So let this scrap of paper be
your first proper welcome to the City.
This is what they told you
After surviving the Collapse, a group of
former world government officials and
corporation CEOs joined forces to create the
City. Structured like a perfectly square grid,
this massive city-state might just be the last
habitable environment left on the planet.
The Municipality alongside Pentacorp and its
subsidiaries - known jointly as the
Conglomerate - succeeded in creating a safe
haven of order amidst the chaos of the old
world. The Collapse was nature’s attempt at
wiping out humanity, but thanks to the
Conglomerate, it has not only survived, but
thrived. By working hard and abiding by the
system, you enjoy the safety and prosperity
that comes with being a Citizen.
This is the truth
Imagine somebody burned down your home,
built a new one in its place, then charged
you for living in it.
You don’t have to imagine it, it’s reality.
This is the history the Gloms have hidden
from you. The Collapse didn’t just happen,
it was caused by the Gloms.
For centuries they ravaged the planet for
everything they could get and burned it up
in the process. They built this monstrous city
when the floods and storms got too big and
the air got too poisonous, and only let us in
so they’d have someone to keep it all
running.
This city is no safe haven: it was their
bunker, and now it’s our prison.
Nature was never our enemy, she was theirs.
They think they’ve beaten her, got her
caged up.
2
They enjoy their fresh fruit from trees
grown behind glass, while most of us down
here have never even seen a blade of grass.
We used to have ways of living with nature,
not in opposition to it. Despite the Gloms’
efforts, there are still those who remember
those ways.
You don’t have to keep swallowing
Agralion’s nutripaste, or letting Milton
Energy bleed you dry just to stay warm in
the winter. You don’t have to stand by while
BLZ bulldozes another residential block and
lets it rot.
Together, we can break the system and
make this city, and maybe this world, GREEN
again.
How the City works
The Gloms will tell you the City is a place of
infinite opportunities and options, where
you can do anything, be anyone, so long as
you do the work and follow the rules.
Take a closer look at those rules and you’ll
see your opportunities and options are very
far from infinite.
You can eat any food you like, so long as it’s
Agralion food. You can travel the City, so
long as it’s in GridGo cabs or trams.
You can wear what you like, so long as it’s
made by Reynell. You can live anywhere you
want, so long as it’s BLZ accommodation.
You can work anywhere you want, so long as
you have the right number of limbs.
Does the food not satisfy?
Do you get to work late?
Is your shirt falling apart?
Is your apartment too small or too cold?
Are the cybernetic legs your work required
you to have installed uncomfortable?
Simple: just upgrade your subscription plans!
What’s that? You don’t have enough credits?
Simple: work more hours!
You’re already working full time?
Don’t be silly, the big City never sleeps, so
why should you?
It should come as no surprise that the real
solutions to all these problems are against
the law. It’s illegal to grow your own food.
It’s against the City’s safety regulations to
go far on foot. Making or mending clothes is
illegal. You’re not allowed to power your
home with renewable energy, or share it
with anyone else who can’t pay. No custom-
built cyber- limbs or hover chairs. It’s illegal
to repair anything, you can only replace.
Of course, just because all this is against
City law, doesn’t mean it’s impossible to do.
You’ll just have to accept the fact that it
will make you a criminal.
Bribe a cop, they might let your sister and
her family stay in your flat for a few nights.
Talk to a local Gang, they may have a spare
Photonic Accumulator (PACC), or parts for
building a hover chair... so long as you do a
few odd jobs for them first.
If you know where to look, you might find a
runner who sells soil and seeds.
If you decide you’re up for breaking the
rules, make sure you don’t get caught.
If you’re lucky they’ll just take all your
savings and leave you on the street to starve
or freeze.
Want to know the best way to avoid that?
Make friends. Work together. Look out for
each other. You’re not going to survive this
City on your own, not in the real sense.
You can get by, but you’ll be nothing more
than another sad, empty suit.
Who runs this place
The Municipality
Let’s start with the City’s official
governmental body, the Municipality.
Originally a bunch of world government
officials from various nation states that
didn’t exist anymore after the Collapse.
They set up the City’s legislature, its layout,
borders... the first of the City’s cops were
the bodyguards and soldiers that ensured
they survived the Collapse. The Municipality
receives resources and wealth from
3
Pentacorp, in return for exclusive service
contracts across the City.
The City’s Mayor is elected every six years
via electronic vote accessible to all Citizens
(providing their “Economic and Civic
Contribution Rating” is high enough).
There are two political parties: the Party for
Municipal Protection and Expansion, and the
Democratic Citizens’ League. Their policies
are essentially identical.
The Municipality values two things above all
else: normalcy and productivity.
Sure, you can customise your look with
snazzy fashion, accessories (or even
Bodysculpting), but only so long as all of the
above are approved and licensed by the
Gloms. After all, they decide what’s
acceptable, what’s normal.
As for productivity, well... if you hadn’t
figured out by now that all they think you’re
good for is working and consuming... I don’t
know what to tell you.
Pentacorp & Subsidiaries
Next there’s PENTACORP and its
subsidiaries. Each subsidiary has its own
little family of smaller companies and
firms... but all the credits flow up into
Pentacorp. Pentacorp started out as a tech
company centuries ago, and now - as well as
the five following corporations - manages all
of the City’s digital infrastructure. The
Pentacorp Overgrid is the City’s official
cyberspace network (not affiliated with the
highly illegal Undergrid). Pentacorp’s Hi-5 is
the City’s most popular social media
platform, and requires a HeadsApp neural
implant. Pentacorp also owns and runs
various weapons manufacturers, including
IREN Pacification and PentaDrone.
AGRALION
AGRALION and its subsidiaries produce and
distribute all the City’s food, medicine and
healthcare services. The planet’s few
remaining animal and plant species are
cloned, spliced and farmed by Agralion.
There are rumours that they own a sizeable
bank of genetic samples from long extinct
flora and fauna. Agralion Subsidiaries
include Pi-Gen Pharma, Chimera Bodysculpts
and the Hungry Hector fast food chain.
BLZ
BLZ and its subsidiaries manage waste
collection and processing, as well as
construction and housing. Before anything is
recycled, incinerated, built or demolished,
it needs approval from BLZ. BLZ subsidiaries
include Domo-Deimo Constructions and
Teseo Recycling.
GRIDGO
GRIDGO and its subsidiaries own and operate
all transportation throughout the City. From
slow and cramped hundred passenger trams
to speedy and luxurious two-person cabs,
what you travel in - and how fast you travel
- depends on your weekly subscription plan.
GridGo subsidiaries include Sector Speed-
ways and GoldCab.
MILTON ENERGY
MILTON ENERGY directly and indirectly runs
all the City’s power plants, its power
infrastructure, and robot battery production
and distribution. Their energy comes from
waste incineration and deep gas extraction,
but the Glom offices are probably powered
by PACC arrays. Milton Energy subsidiaries
include RoBuddy Batteries and ExoCut R&D.
REYNELL
Reynell and its various studios and firms
produce and distribute all of the City’s
entertainment, cosmetics and fashion. Their
films and shows are procedurally generated
by machine learning. Their live
entertainment, like soap operas and reality
shows, are influenced by real-time data
collected from viewers’ HeadsApp implants.
Their virtual pop starlet, Ode, is one of their
most lucrative assets.
The City Code (Excerpt)
 All subscription service payments must
be completed on time.
 Municipal News Broadcasts and Promo-
feeds broadcast via neural implants are
4
mandatory viewing. The use of signal or
ad-blockers is illegal.
 Use of “cheat codes” or hardware
modifications made to bypass
subscription service payments is illegal.
 The possession, cultivation and
distribution of unlicensed bio-matter
(vegetables, fruits, herbs, etc.) is illegal.
 The possession and/or use of non-Milton
Energy or otherwise unlicensed energy
generators or photonic accumulators is
illegal.
 Making unlicensed repairs or
modifications to subscription service-
related devices is illegal.
 Any cybernetic/bodysclupt surgery that
is unlicensed or performed
independently of Agralion (or
subsidiaries) is illegal.
 Unlicensed live art/music performances
are illegal.
 Publication and distribution of any media
containing misinformation about the
City’s history, the Collapse or the
Conglomerate, is illegal.
 Breaking any of the above laws will
result in a 150+ credit fine, and the
confiscation and/or destruction of any
illegal/unlicensed devices, materials and
goods. Failure to pay any fines and/or
repeat offences may result in immediate
detainment, transfer to a BLZ waste
processing facility, or exile.
Who lives here
The City has a 60% human and 40% robot
population. Within those groups is a lot of
variety, mostly thanks to the commercial
availability (both legal and not) of
bodysculpts and cybernetic implants.
Following the Big Wake Up (the sudden and
spontaneous emergence of self-awareness
amongst roughly half of the robot
population), sapient robots have the same
rights (if you can call them that) as humans.
Non-sapient robots still governed entirely by
their programming are referred to as
“automatons”.
It is unknown how many non-human animals
are currently alive in the City, and it is
likely most of them are in the Gloms’
keeping.
Bodysculpts & Implants
BODYSCULPTING is a pretty big thing in the
City. Nose-jobs and tummy-tucks are tame
compared to some of the stuff a Bodysculpt
surgeon can do for you, if you have the
credits. Fur, feathers, scales, claws,
fangs,horns... you can look like pretty much
any animal you want. Of course, given that
most records of the planet’s extinct fauna
have been lost or corrupted, Bodysculpted
Citizens have had to fill in the gaps with
their imagination. Originally people were
doing it as a kind of remembrance, to
memorialise the non-human victims of the
Collapse by emulating their features. After a
while though, like all good things, it got
tainted by the Gloms, who turned it into a
fashion trend.
The majority of the City’s human inhabitants
have some degree of cybernetic technology
incorporated into their bodies. Cybernetics
range from your standard neural implants
like HeadsApp, to fancy stuff like thermal
regulators, sub-dermal armour and sensory
enhancements.
Then, of course, there are prosthetics.
The Gloms will forcibly fit you with a
cybernetic arm, leg or eye free of charge in
the event of workplace accidents – which
are all too frequent. However, the quality of
the tech will depend on the subscription
plan you can afford. Remember: these
cybernetic limbs are not an accommodation,
but COERCION! They could give you a hover-
chair or make the City accessible, but they
won’t. It’s just another of the City’s
attempts to stuff you into its moulds of
“normalcy” and “productivity”.
So what now?
So now you know what you can and can’t do
to survive in this City.
But do you want to LIVE?
5
Do you find yourself looking around and
thinking “There HAS to be an alternative”?
The Gloms will tell you “there is no
alternative. Things aren’t perfect but they
work!”
Doomers will tell you “things aren’t going to
get better, so why not just give up?”
They’re both wrong. There is an alternative
and it is so, SO much better.
Break the rules. Help each other.
Grow plants and food, and share them.
Repair what’s broken, and improve it if you
can. Turn the City’s rubble and abandoned
lots into new homes, gardens and safe
spaces. Power them with the sun and the
wind. Make them accessible for any and all.
The Gloms that run this City are terrified of
solidarity. They know that as soon as we
start helping each other, and working
together, their whole system starts to fall
apart.
SO LET’S BRING IT DOWN TOGETHER!

RULES
So you want to be a Greenjacker?
In this game you and your fellow players are
GREENJACKERS, solarpunk activists and
revolutionaries in a cyberpunk hellscape of a
city, built in the ruins of a global ecological
collapse. You’ll have to work together to
survive, thrive and keep the Green alive.
Stats
In GREENJACKERS, Player Characters (PCs)
have four main attributes, called STATS.
Each Stat functions as a pool for ENERGY
POINTS (EP), which can be spent to perform
Actions in game. The four Stats are:
Wits: wisdom, know-how, awareness.
Stamina: strength, will, endurance.
Dexterity: agility, balance, speed.
Sociability: charm, confidence,
approachability
Actions
To perform an ACTION in game, you can
spend EP from the relevant Stat for a
success, or make a 1d6 Luck Roll.
3 EP: Total Success.
2 EP: Partial Success + 1 Complication.
1 EP: Weak Success + 2 Complications.
Luck Roll
1: Failure + 1 Complication.
2 or 3: Failure.
4: Success + 1 Complication.
5: Success.
6: Success + Inspired Condition.
Advantage & Disadvantage
Sometimes a PC will have ADVANTAGE or
DISADVANTAGE on their Action.
Advantage: -1 to EP cost, +1 to Luck Roll.
Disadvantage: +1 to EP cost, -1 to Luck Roll.
Both Advantage and Disadvantage can stack,
meaning some Actions can only fail/succeed.
If a PC completely runs out of EP, they
become Unconscious or die (depending on
game’s tone).
7
Skills & Flubs
PCs have SKILLS (things they are good at
doing) and FLUBS (things they are bad at
doing). When performing an Action using a
Skill, they have Advantage If it involves a
Flub, they have Disadvantage
Conditions
Characters can be affected by Conditions:
ENERGISED: Receive 1d6 of extra EP in a
Stat of your choice, which last until your
next Rest.
HINDERED: Disadvantage on any Actions
affected by hindrance, until removed.
HURT: Disadvantage on any Actions affected
by injury (physical or emotional) until
healed. This Condition stacks.
INSPIRED: Advantage on next Action of
choice.
PANICKED: Disadvantage on all Actions until
Stress is lower than 6.
STUCK: No Actions until freed.
UNCONSCIOUS: No Actions until awoken.
Complications
COMPLICATIONS are problems that can alter
the course of the game, even drastically.
Roll 1d6 for the table, then again for the
Complication. If the Complication doesn’t
feel right, re-roll or simply choose another.

To restore Hits, Armour must be repaired
over a number of days equal to its maximum
number of Hits (e.g. Light Armour needs 2
days to be fully repaired).
Funds & Gigs
Until the Conglomerate is toppled,
Greenjacking is going to require credits.
Equipment, information, black market
goods... until enough people have joined
your cause, it’s all going to come at a price.
Each PC starts the game with an amount of
credits (their disposable income after what
they pay for Subscription Services). These
FUNDS can be spent individually or lumped
together with the other PCs’ Funds, to
acquire resources needed for Missions.
How many Funds a Character starts the
game with depends on whether or not they
have a GIG (a fully licensed, legal paying
job). If a Character has a Gig, they will have
more Funds than a full-time Greenjacker,
but will only be able to participate in
Missions either during the day or during the
night. The Player can decide - with the
agreement of the other Players/Mod - what
their Character’s Gig is.
See Character Creation for more info on
generating Character Funds.
Contacts
The PCs begin the game with a number of
CONTACTS: these are Citizens the PCs knows
and who can provide them with assistance.
At any moment during play (that the
Mod/Players agree feels appropriate) a PC
can invoke one of their Contacts to help
them, narratively, mechanically, or both.
A PC can only invoke a Contact a limited
number of times (for more information, see
Character Creation).
Stress & Resting
If a Player rolls a 1,2 or 3 on a Luck Roll
during a Tight Spot, they must take 1 point
of STRESS. Upon reaching 6 Stress, the PC
becomes Panicked until the Stress is
9
removed. Stress points can be removed by
using certain items or by Resting.
At the end of a day - or whenever the
Mod/Players feel appropriate - the PCs can
REST to recover EP. To Rest, roll 1d6 and
recover a number of EP equal to the result,
in any Stat or Stats of choice. If a PC has any
Stress, roll 1d6 and remove that many Stress
points instead of restoring EP.
Certain items allow a Resting Character to
restore additional EP, or remove additional
Stress points. See the MOD GUIDE for more
information.
Missions & Progression
During the game, PCs will go on
Greenjacking MISSIONS throughout the City,
Block by Block, Sector by Sector. These
Missions can be decided by the Players, the
Mod, or randomly generated using the tables
included in the MOD GUIDE.
The Missions can take a variety of different
forms, but should all have the same core
objectives: undermining the Conglomerate’s
authority, fostering solidarity and bringing
about a sustainable, just society
Successfully completing a Mission in a
City Block will “Green” it. Once the PCs
have Greened at least 4 Blocks, they have
Greened the Sector: their work has won over
more Citizens to the Greenjacker cause, or
reduced Glom influence in the area. At this
point they can travel to the next Sector. See
the MOD GUIDE for more info on Missions and
City Grid generation. After Greening at least
1 Sector - more if the Mod/Players feel
appropriate - a PC can Progress in one of
three ways:
1. Roll 1d6. Distribute the result across
Stats of choice, increasing Max EP
amount.
2. Add/replace 1 new Skill (related to
Class or made up) and/or 1 Flub.
A PC can know a total of up to 8 Skills.
3. Add/replace 1 new Contact (must be
narratively connected to the events of
the Mission.)
4. Recruit a new Greenjacker! Turn an
existing Contact or NPC into a PC for
anyone in the group to play.
Ending the Game
There is no set end goal to GREENJACKERS!
The game ends whenever the Players feel it
appropriate, and it all depends on your
preferred mode of play.
If you prefer to play short, one-session
games, your objective might be to just have
the PCs survive, or succeed in one
Greenjacking Mission. If so, if the PCs die or
the Mission is a failure, GAME OVER.
If instead you want to take your Characters
on a longer campaign, perhaps you won’t
stop until the entire City has been Greened,
and the Greenjacker revolution can begin.
You might decide not to stop there either,
and play out the revolution as well!
After playing one or two sessions, talk it
over as a Player group and decide what feels
like it could be the most fun for you!
Playing with a Mod
The MOD (Moderator) is a Player who fulfils
the role of narrator and referee during the
game. They provide the set-up for the
Mission, take on the role of all NPCs (Non
Player Characters), and help the other
Players in fleshing out the world of the
game. The Mod should always remember
that they are not the god of the game, but a
facilitator of fun, guiding the other Players
but always letting them lead.
Throughout play they should ask the Players
questions, and build on their input.
What does the PCs’ base of operations look
like? How do they feel when entering the
nightclub? Who does the black market
merchant remind them of?
If your game has a Mod, they don’t need to
roll for Complications and Threat Turns, and
can make a selection themselves. Of course,
they can still roll if they want.
10
No Mods No Masters
In this mode of play, the Mod’s
responsibilities are shared equally between
all Players. That means they build their
game’s world together, even taking on the
roles of NPCs if they choose. They’ll use the
Complication and Threat Turn roll tables, as
well as those in the MOD GUIDE, which
include tables for generating Missions, NPCs,
and the City itself.
When playing without a Mod, it helps to
break the Mission up into Stages, and play
through each one like story chapters or
scenes in a play. Stages could include:
1. Receiving/Deciding on a Mission.
2. Making a Plan.
3. Putting the Plan into Action.
4. Resolution.
If the Guide/Players wish, they can add
DIFFICULTY levels to their game. A Mission‘s
Difficulty level is equal to the minimum
number of Complications the PCs must
encounter during the adventure. The Mod/
Players can choose a Difficulty level or roll
1d6. Any Tight Spots, as with Complications,
occur throughout the game at the Guide
and/or Players’ discretion.
Playing Safely
Before even starting the game, all the
Players should discuss what kind of tone
they want for the game, and make note of
any topics or themes they want to exclude.
Here is a link to a curated list of safety
tools:

and curated by Kienna Shaw (@/KiennaS)

City Grid Generator
The City is structured like a square grid,
made up of Sectors, each containing 9
Blocks.
To generate a Sector, roll 9 times on the 2d6
table below, to determine the contents of
each Block, arranged as a 3 by 3 grid square.
Next, roll on the 1d6 table for each Block to
determine who or what has established a
presence there.
To create a City you can generate as many
Sectors as you want, providing the structure
as a whole is square.
Block Contents
2. Abandoned.
3. Entertainment Industries.
4. Factories.
5. Power plant.
6. Offices.
7. High Density Residential.
8. Retail/Shops.
9. Building Site.
10. Low Density Residential.
11. Abandoned & Hazardous.
12. Glom Offices.
Block Presence
 1 or 2: Police.
 3: None.
 4: Doomers.
 5: Gangers.
 6: Black Market.
Whatever Sector the Players start in is their
Characters’ neighbourhood. They then
decide as a group in which Block their
Characters’ live and/or work.
Consider the following questions:
 Do the PCs all live together?
 Are they living in rented
accommodation, or somewhere else,
perhaps illegally?
 What does their home look and feel like?
 Is their home also their base of
Greenjacker operations?
If not, where is it?
 If a PC has a GIG, where do they work
and what do they do? Do they have to
travel to another Block or even another
Sector?
Travel
Travelling from one Block/Sector to another
can be done vertically, horizontally or
diagonally. Traversing a Block takes as much
time in game as the Mod and Players think is
appropriate. As an option, they can roll 1d6:
if they roll a 4 or less the Block contains a
lot of traffic or obstacles, and will take
longer to traverse (e.g. 1 hour instead of 30
minutes).
Black Markets
If a Block contains a BLACK MARKET, the
Players/Mod can roll twice on the table
below to see what types of goods are
available.
20
1. Weapons, armour, batteries, machine
parts.
2. Stims, medical supplies, surgical tools.
3. Tech, computers, cybernetics, devices.
4. Construction tools, building materials.
5. Clothing, fabric, furniture, books, toys.
6. Seeds, soil, gardening tools, food.
Block Presences
Any Complications or Tight Spots arising
during play will more likely involve whoever
has an established presence in a Block.
In Blocks with a POLICE presence, there will
be a detainment center and police station.
Cop goals include helping maintain the
status quo through force or threat of force,
as well as capturing and/or neutralising
criminals (Greenjackers, Doomers and
Gangers).
In Blocks with a GANGER presence, there
might be several organised crime gangs
active, but only one with claim to the Block.
Gangers are sometimes willing to help
Greenjackers (seeing as they share an
enemy in the cops) but never for free.
Gangers are territorial, their primary goal
being defending what they consider to be
their turf from rival gangs and the police, by
any means (even working for the Gloms).
In Blocks with a DOOMER presence, the PCs
should be constantly on their guard.
Doomers are violent and nihilistic, having
long given up on any hope for a better
future. They are always eager to start a
fight, destroying and killing indiscriminately.
