 The simplest I can come up with would be this:
-Each character has 4 SKILLS: Thievery, Mellee, Missile and Magic. You start with 2 in Thievery, Mellee and Missile and 0 in Magic and add 4 to one of them. You can only play a human. All characters have 7 Body Points. Damage done is a six sided dice - both for mellee and missile hits. This is the extent of your starting character.

-Combat is resolved by each player rolling for attack and defense, your mellee skill pluss a dice versus your opponent's mellee skill pluss a dice. If you score higher on your attack than your opponent's total defense, you score a hit, doing one dice in damage. Then your opponent rolls for attack and you for defense. The attacks happen simultaneously. For missile weapons, you roll just as described for Amar Lite above.
