Check out “The Compleat Chainmail”.
I don’t know if it’s what you’re looking for, but it is Old School.
Using Chainmail rules for D&D means there are three types of combat: mass combat, person-to-person combat, and fantastic combat, and all three resolve fights differently.
Mass combat pits troop types against troop types (light infantry versus heavy cavalry, for example).
Person-to-person has a chart for attacking with weapon types against armor types—a dagger against an opponent wearing chainmail, for example.
Fantastic combat involves fights against monsters with a lot of hit dice. PCs need to be high level to even try.
