[QUOTE="hawkeyefan, post: 7685036, member: 6785785"] The map looks really nice. I'll likely pick one up. As for WotC's decision regarding the map...I certainly don't think it's above criticism. Would I have liked a poster map folded and tucked into the back cover of my SCAG? Sure. But do I "need" it, the way many here are saying it is "needed"? No, not at all. Up to now, I've simply been using the fold out poster from my 3E FR Guide for my Faerun needs. And my campaign is running just fine. I've also found plenty of resources online that are very helpful. I know people want official material and all...and I can certainly understand that to an extent....but in the absence of the official new material, there is still plenty of published material about the Realms and other settings. And if you can't find published material for what you are looking for....then you may just have to suck it up and use the old imagination. Mike's maps are really nice. I'll likely get this one in some format because I'd like to have it. I in no way feel like it is essential and I will struggle to run games without it. So I can understand a level of criticism about WotC's decision to handle the maps this way. But I think that it'd be nice if a thread that seems designed to spotlight a nice piece of art made it more than the second comment before people started complaining. Literally two comments in and the complaints started. [/QUOTE]
