[QUOTE="Dyson Logos, post: 9580686, member: 83678"] [ATTACH type="full" size="2625x1800"]395695[/ATTACH] [B]The Autumn Lands – Map G[/B] The Autumn Lands lie to the south of the Midsummer Lands. This map sits to the south of map F from last month and to the west of next month’s map H. The goal of the Autumn Lands is to produce a series of commercial-use hexmaps that can be used in their entirety, or just one map for a specific adventure. There’s no set scale for these maps, and the items on the maps are not to scale with each other so we can see points of interest like towers, cities, and caves. If you really need a scale for this and don’t want to pick one yourself, go with six miles to the hex. For this series, I’ve been working with the style I started putting together a couple of years ago where the rivers run along the hex borders – this allows for river travel to be great for exploration as you can see the hexes on each side of the river as you go. This encourages exploration-style games to stick to the rivers a lot, much like explorers did in the real world. This map leaves the mountainous coverage of the northern lands, into a series of rolling hills and valleys dominated on the west side by the DrownedWoods. Rivers criss-cross the valleys, as well as small lakes and an area of wetlands to the south. This entire area is a drainage basin for the Autumn River which flows east from here towards the Mulberry Sea. There are few settlements in this region, and many more ruins from an empire long gone to the south of this region (the Serpent Lands – probably an upcoming series of maps once the Autumn Lands are done). The shadow of the Serpent Lands is upon this region, so few of the ‘civilized’ peoples live here and instead, there are small clan-communities of the remnants of that once great empire scattered around in the forests and swamps. Points of interest here include a pair of massive tree villages in the forests, a ziggurat topped with a massive red monolith in the south, and ruins scattered throughout the whole region.
