Map-a-Week01/30/2003


January 2003



These six landscape maps (five plus a bonus) fit together side-by-side to create a panoramic overview of a frontier countryside whose inhabitants rely on logging, mining, and sea trade. You can use the locations and outlines of its plentiful distinctive structures to draw up your own interior building maps, and be inspired by its curious locales in planning your next rough-and-ready adventure scenario.

We've provided a small one-page composite of the area suitable for the Dungeon Master, and when we conclude the series, we'll post a slightly larger two-page composite suitable for keying for your campaign or a larger handout to players.

01/30 Water-Filled Open-Pit Mine: This final map attaches to the right side of the Small City, Lake, and Stream map. A rather large hamlet lies in its southeast quadrant, while open countryside and a large open pit mine filled with water hold the center of attention.
