Greg Gillespie, author of several OSR mega-dungeons such as Barrowmaze and and Forbidden Caverns of Archaia, has been working on a new OSR system. His dungeons were written for B/X, but he's now decided to put out his own, tailored version of B/X. In the video below, they preview the game and discuss some of the differences, such as a new race and changes to classes.

The new race is the Cyclopsman, based on the character from the 80s movie Krull, which is an interesting idea and actually makes for a nice addition to the standard races. I also dig his change to a more western themed Monk, which really screams Friar Tuck.

“He found himself wondering at times, especially in the autumn, about the wild lands, and strange visions of mountains that he had never seen came into his dreams.” - Fellowship of the Ring, J.R.R. Tolkien
