Great!

I'm in! Do I have to use the maps you linked to in the original post? I do have some Dyson Logos favorites, as well as the possibility of using DungeonDraft to craft something myself.

Interesting question! Part of the hook is immersing yourself in a dying planet & sorcery* world where the past is deep and the future is grim. A mélange of planetary romance, sci-fantasy, and sword & sorcery. Elric on Barsoom. If I'll write this for OSE, part of the selling point would be...
