[QUOTE="Yaksha_, post: 3678895, member: 41810"] Hi all, Thanks for the replies. It seems by your posts that gamers choose these different options: 1. The maps are erroneously multiplied by 10 (according to Keith). So this would make Khorvaire 500 miles wide, not 5,000. That would make Khorvaire way too small in my opinion; the entire continent the size of France. 2. Others mention halving it. This would make Khorvaire 2,500 miles wide. This seems fairly reasonable. About the same size as the USA or Australia. On a global scale, the original mileage is probably very realistic, and I don’t have a problem with Khorvaire being the size of Asia. Except for the fact that that is not realistically portrayed in the geography and population and as mentioned in your posts, it throws out the story of the war, travel time/expenses etc. I think halving the land masses but keeping the circumference of Eberron the same would be the easiest way out. This means if we were to draw a realistic map of Eberron there would be a lot more ocean – quite plausible going by our Earth. I have the same sentiments as Glyfair, WayneLigon. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
