It looks like it should work perfectly fine for a campaign like B/X DandD, but without character levels, spell slots, the weird attack roll system, and with skills.
All the rules for wandering monsters, reaction rolls, and morale that make B/X great can just be added to Dragonbane almost as is.
Of course you can always include more detail to get more realism.
But my main goal is to make using hex maps for travel more convenient to use while still maintaining the 6-mile resolution. That means all daily travel distances have to come out as full increments of 6 miles, and the equation to calculate speed has to be easy enough to do by memory without looking up any tables. I don't think it's mathematically possible to produce something like that with more factors going into it.
When I start work on a new setting and have a rough general idea of the cultures that will inhabit it, I pick countries that I think are somewhat culturally comparable and look up lists with common names from those countries.
Then I make myself a big list of names that I think sound like decent names for characters in my setting and copy them all into one big list of NPC names sorted by culture. If I need an NPC name later, I can go to that list. If nothing on the list seems fitting, I at least have a good pool of references for the sounds and letters that are common for that culture and can make up names that sound similar to the actually existing ones.
Dragonbane.

I had to look if this was posted in Science Memes or RPG Memes.
I only recognize things as down as GNS and Fatal, and those are really just level 3 stuff.
"Komm da weg, Idioten!"
Rum Ham!!!
The nastiest thing about lack of oxygen is that the first effect is losing your ability to tell that anything is wrong with you. The perfect killer.
I actually want an undead dungeon filled with toxic fumes now.

Not sure if we would catch anything here that isn't already there.
A Cait Sith Lord?!
It only says "Formula can not be evaluated", nothing else.
True science! Without compassion, decency, and humanity.
Yay...
But how many of the Rollmaster spells are actually useful?

Yes, my post says that they are resin.
These are supposedly 1:72 resin figures. (No clue what printer, though.)

Look a bit rougher than injection mold, but for wargaming purposes this would be absolutely sufficient.
All in a row.
Then the unhelpful gatekeeper on Mastodon was not only extremely rude, but also talking complete nonsense.
Thanks.
1 length unit on the model is 72 length units on the real object. Figures are about 2cm tall.
