Baalgor Wastelands Questions

Unread post by Okey-Dokey »

So im running a campaign that begins in the Baalgor Wastelands, drawing heavily on inspiration from one of the Hook, line, and Sinkers in the back of the BW book. But the maps in the book do not offer any kind of scale. Can anyone offer up some insight on this for me? Thank you!

PS: if there is indeed a scale given, i have certainly overlooked it, and a page number for reference would be appreciated!

Northwest to southeast the baalgor wastelands is about 600 miles
East to west through the centre is about 400 miles.
Same with north to south
and probably 300 mile south west to north east.
Just look in the main palladium book p. 287 for baalgors size. the rest should be workoutable
Or do it the easy way, get hotrod to do a map ;)

Your best bet for a scale would be the main book map of the world. Figure the dimensions and then create a scale to use for the maps. Or wait until Hotrod gets around to properly mapping the region, :)

It's on the to-do list, though I could come up with something. Scale changes with latitude.

I would love to see what you come up with, the work you've done so far has been phenomenal!
