Converting Red’s White Box to Fantastic Medieval Campaigns (FMC)
Sandbox and Dungeon Set up for FMC
You will need an Outdoor Map – Good Place to get one https://www.reddit.com/r/osr/comments/14b22oj/outdoor_survival_map_for_hexcrawl/

Part One – Char Creation
This is a game of Adventure, Hacking, Slashing, and Casting Spells in a Dungeon that is actively trying to kill you. It is alive and does not like you. Get rich and Retire in Wealth if you survive that is. Recommended for Levels 1-14.
I suggest using 4d4+2 instead of 3d6 down the line - feel free to experiment.
