[QUOTE="hawkeyefan, post: 7685400, member: 6785785"] I think the DMG provides travel times for certain distances, if I recall correctly; I don't have my books handy at the moment, so I could be thinking of some other resource. But either way, applying a scale is pretty easy. Take two points...let's use your example of Waterdeep and Baldur's Gate...decide how much time you'd like for it to take travelers in your game to get from one location to the other and then record how much distance it would take for people to travel that length of time. Take a piece of paper, mark the distance between the two cities on the edge, and then use that to create a scale. Yes that may require a little more time on your part...but it is an alternative to buying a map, which is what you asked for. And what Campaign or Player's Guide didn't require a little work on our part? I'm not saying this to try to upset you, just to let you know that a poster map isn't as absolutely necessary as you seem to view it. [/QUOTE]
