> I'm now wondering if Shatterzone, Masterbook, or my own personal MB modified system did move willpower to Spirit or not. I forget. It has been so long time (2 kids, 1 move, 7 years, etc) I'm not opposed to moving the skill to Spirit. It kind of makes more sense in a way. 

Masterbook did move the Willpower skill to Confidence, their version of
the Spirit attribute. I don't remember offhand if Shatterzone moved it
too.

I actually liked the move except for one thing - the Willpower card no
longer affects the Willpower skill! That just breaks my brain, a card
named after a skill doesn't apply to said skill.
