Mike Schley's MASSIVE Forgotten Realms Map From SCAG!

Cartographer Mike Schley has posted the enormous map of Northwest Faerûn from the Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide. It's poster sized (10,200 x 6,600 pixels, or a 34-page PDF) or you can get the Artists Print version shipped to you in the form of a poster map. "This new absolutely massive map of D&D's Sword Coast and Northwestern Faerûn was commissioned by Wizards of the Coast to accompany their 5th Edition D&D game supplement Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide. lead your adventures through his exhaustive map of The Forgotten Realms' most Iconic lands and make sure to let it inspire some truly fantastic storytelling."
The print version ($10-$54, depending on size) is here, and the digital version ($10) is here.

These maps are awesome. Very good value. Thank you!

What I want to know is why a pull-out map wasn't included in the book. For $40 we should've gotten one. At the very least, the map inside the book should have a scale in it. How am I supposed to plan an adventure when I can't figure out how far it is from point A to point B?! Paying $136 for a poster-sized map is NOT an option. I shouldn't have to find a map of my own online to print out either.

Oh, and before anyone says to "speak with my wallet" or "don't buy it if you don't like it", my FLGS shrink-wraps all their books. I had no way of knowing there wasn't a map included. They also have a no return policy. Had I known, I wouldn't have bought this product. I indeed would've spoken with my wallet, although I doubt it would make a difference.

Shrunk wrap and no return policy really isn't a WotC issue. That store is horrid.

Well... you could have waited a day or do and then done a google search on it. But I guess you were like... already there at the store. So yeah... you had to get it then. I can see your point.

Having a sweet pull out map with the book would have been cool.

Why would I wait a day or two? I guess it's my fault for assuming that WotC would do right by ut's players and provide a pull-out map. Especially since most newer gamers don't have access to older Realms materials and the younger ones don't have $136 to shell out for a poster-sized map. Yep it's all my fault.

I didn't say it was a WoTC issue. What I said was that I wouldn't have bought the product had I known there was no pull-out map, and I couldn't tell because it was shrink-wrapped. And yes, it's a horrid place, but that's what I get for trying to support my local gaming store.
