So not a physical foldout map, then.It's the Atlas of Faerun, a D&D Beyond product which will be bundled with either of the two new books.
Maybe, or maybe it's just reflective of the fact that the Dales have been exhaustively covered in lore and other setting products (the 3e FRCS for example) in the past, so are more filled out than further-flung lands.Interesting that the map becomes significantly denser with locations around the Dalelands, I wonder if this combines the poster map with the more focused regional maps we will likely see in the Adventjres Guide?
There is a holdout map, Virginia rgw physical book.So not a physical foldout map, then.Booooooo!
I would wager it will be either about tge same area as tge 1E OG map, or maybe as much as the 2E map. Nothing beyond Faerûn seems likely given that it is called "The Atlas of Daerûn".Maybe, or maybe it's just reflective of the fact that the Dales have been exhaustively covered in lore and other setting products (the 3e FRCS for example) in the past, so are more filled out than further-flung lands.
Very happy to see the Shaar back, it was a travesty what happened to that place in 4th edition. I wonder how far the map will stretch? Kara-Tur? Maztica? Zakhara? Osse?
Good observations. I can't imagine he started from scratch, though. He'll have many layers on his working file, one of which is probably an outline of the land masses and islands. (I bet that working file is ginormous!)

Yeah, ‘Hordelands’ is pretty easily interpreted as a term used for the steppe by outsiders. Presumably the Tuigan and other nomads have their own name for it, although it’s probably been 35 years since I read those novels so I don’t remember what that might be.If they are feeling generous they may include some of the boundary space such as the Hoardlands (probably won't call it that), the Utter East, etc...

(Damn they did Yamun Khahan dirty in the last book though. Such a weak ending!)
