D&D 5E Check out this beautiful Sword Coast print!

This is the only high-res map of Khorvaire I could find.

That would probably work OK - but I'd put a nice map border around it and give a 1" bleed margin to finish it off so nothing got cut.

I got a full set of the LMoP maps from Mike Schley done on vinyl from ViVYX. They turned out great and are practically indestructible.

Additionally, if you have a bit of spare cash, Mike Schley has his own version of the Sword Coast map on his zenfolio page. It has some extra town markers for places named but not marked on the map. You can also get a *huge* pdf of it and a blank version is in that pdf.

The nice part about a vinyl one is that you should be able to use wet erase markers. Not that you would necessarily want to do so on your main map. Test a tiny, hard to see area first.

I opted for the Storm King's Thunder map (16"x24"). Here's a picture with the Player's Handbook for scale:

Nice! What options did you choose?

Just plain ol' vinyl, no grommets or hemmed edges. It was about $18 altogether, including shipping. Folds up and lays flat easily, feels heavy-duty. Good deal, IMO, so thanks for the tip.

EDIT: Also, for those wondering, I used the SKT map that was released as one of the Extra Life rewards. The resolution isn't the best, but all the text, including the smallest road and river names, are clearly legible.

I wanted to do something similar but the cost here would be in the realm of $70

Are you sure about that?

Check out Vistaprint - http://www.vistaprint.com.au/banners.aspx?pfid=017&xnav=Breadcrumbs

You can get a 90cm x 50cm (roughly 35in x 20in) vinyl banner for $20 + $8 postage within Australia. A 122cm x 76cm vinyl banner would cost $30 + $8 postage.

They often send out emails with discount offers as well, so if you wait for the right time you can potentially get it for even less.

We're currently playing through Princes of the Apocalypse. Would Mike's version of the Sword Coast be the best map to get for that campaign?

Edit: I should say that my plan is to get a copy printed out to put up on the wall next to the game table on game night.
