They are stomping around the region, which prompted me to make a regional map. Note that it is the most densely populated areas of the Wilderlands hence the extensive amount of cropland. Which is marked as a textured yellow brown fill.
Each small hex is 2.5 miles or 1 league, the distance a person can walk in an hour.
Each large hex is 5 leagues. For comparison a ship with sails can travel 12 of the large hexes in 24 hours or 2 per four hours.

Good to see people using the wilderlands. My players are outside if Tegel.
ReplyDeletethey are great, and it's the first time I have considered a "league" as a hex size. I have been using 6 mile hexes because it's easy to estimate distances. Also a horse can do 4 a day and a people can do 2 a day.
ReplyDeletebut the hour-walk hex, that's interesting and a little faster than my hexes.
Hey how did you make these maps?
@Scott Anderson, I use CorelDraw and a bunch of textures and fills I assembled over the years.
ReplyDelete@Scott Anderson, Inkscape will do the job as well and it is free to download as an open source software. I keep up with it as a backup in case Corel does something stupid.
ReplyDeleteThank you Rob. I love your work. Your website looks nicer than it did a few months ago. It's nice to see you continually working your craft and then showing us lesser mortals how you do it.
ReplyDeleteNice maps!
