I need a world map...

I need a world map for my new campaign. I don't have any real map making skills and am looking for a map of a continent without any place names. I can fill them in with Gimp. But I don't even know where to start to create my own.

Help!

Thanks,

You can use mine. I can provide it without the texts if you like it.

At the news page, there's a link to RPGlife, that has opended a map gallery. There's tons of unlabeled world maps.

At HERO Games under free stuff, theres an unlabeled world map for the Turakian Age.

More as I think of them....

I have some lying around - this one is unlabelled, though a bit older (and has badly made forests)
Map 1

This one is a re-interpretation of the Eberron map, perhaps you can use it:
Eberron Redux

And this one is the map of my current 4E campaign. It's Nentir Vale + Elsir Vale. I can remove the labelling, if you want to (I should still have the file somewhere)
PoL World


Cheers, LT.

I think I might use your re-interpretation of the Eberron map. It varies just enough that I think it will work well. However, do you have a hire resolution copy that I can get my hands on some how?

By the way I applicate the responses I have gotten. I will be using a great deal of this information.

Thanks

Yeah, I'd appreciate it too. It's absolutely awesome, and if you even flip it 90 degrees, it's totally new continent .

Man, please please provide a high resolution version of that Eberron map! It's awesome!!

Also, I would really love an unlabeled (high res, if possible) version of your PoL map as well. It's awesome too!!

Okay... here are the Eberron Map and the PoL map (totally unlabelled, without names, cities, or any roads/routes).

Click here for the maps

Cheers, LT.

Thanks! That is great!!

I don't suppose you can be bothered to post the high res version ofthe PoL map with roads, cities etc., but just without names

Again, thanks.

Of course I can be bothered. Same link as above, the second version in there, or should be - it's uploading as I type this.

Cheers, LT.

Heh, sorry

I hope I haven't discouraged you from helping other gamers out another time.

I really appreciate you posting the map and will stop pestering now....

Actually, I was serious, not sarcastic - I reckon you don't want to have the "100 Meilen", as it's German. Plus, I can add a title where the original map said "Karte der Westprovinzen", if you want. You just have to tell me, because I wanted to do all of that at once!

And I'm not annoyed by your "pestering", it's great to see my stuff helping other people out, it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside (more seriously: ENWorld stuff has helped me out as well, so it's great to give something back)!

Cheers, LT.

Ah... well, in that case, "miles" will do nicely. As for a title for the map..... Hm, I haven't really decided on where it's supposed to be placed. But since such planning is unnecessary in a PoL world, why not just "Map of the Western Realms"?

And thanks again.

So, you're a German living in the UK?

What did you use to make the maps?

Exactly, studying here.

Photoshop and a lot of time. Thankfully, it's pretty cheap if you're a student, too good to pass up, even as Physics student.
