6 Mile Hex Map - Baltic Region - Worldographer (WIP)



I'm making this map for pre-Modern scenarios, roughly from 500 to 1500 AD using Worldographer.

You can download the latest Worldographer files here (I will update this post with the latest versions):

6 Mile Hex Map - Baltic Region - Worldographer v0.2

6 Mile Hex Map - Baltic Region - Cities v0.3

Let me know if you have any suggestions or resources for the placement of forests, swamps, grasslands and other terrain features.

The map is based on the one found in the article below (scroll down) and covers the area from Stockholm in the North-West to Novgorod in the North-East and down to Minsk and Smolensk in the East.

Inherently evil species? My solution

It used to be the case that everyone knew that orcs were bad and that you should have no problem dispatching them in your game.

I'll aim for a low to medium level of magic and the fantastical, perhaps some magi-tech. More fantastical than what I play with in my Sword & Sorcery Sundaland game  with the IronSworn system  but less so than the standard D&D fantasy world.  I'm considering a couple of different systems. Some of the things I'd like to have in the system. 1. Less 'narrative' than IronSworn but not too crunchy.  2. Characters are not (too) constricted by class.  3. Interesting character progression and customisation, not just +1s 4. Ability to adjust the level of magic easily. 3. Lots of content and adventures for me to use or borrow from. The systems I'm considering are: Adventurer Conquerer King II : This is a D&D variant that has a lot of rules for creati
