@Ricko Hasche I wasn't able to include the dragon map, as it contains unknown symbols. You'll need to edit it and replace these before I can use it in the atlas.
Also, please make sure to check the scaling on your maps. A couple of them was badly scaled. For example, the scale bar in the Burned Emptiness was off, showing 200 while it should have been 100, while the actual map was correctly scaled (determined by looking at how it fit in on the overview map of the region). Some other maps had the opposite, where the scale bar values was logical, but the map itself was wrongly scaled.
You can easily check that the map and the scale bar matches up by using Info ->Distance and just measuring along the length of the scale bar. CC3+ should return a value equal to the length of your scalebar, if not, one of them is scaled wrong. You then need to determine if it is the scale bar (if so, you can just relabel the length on it) or the map itself, in which case you need to re-scale it.
I also believe that some of the maps have both a wrong scale bar and incorrectly scaled, as the length of the scale bar is correct when measured, but they don't seem to fit correctly in on the main regional map when plotted in at the correct size. This applies to the Hafr and Laugar maps.
Note that if you need to make changes to the maps I have already included in the atlas, it is important that you edit the files from the atlas, and not your own originals as that would delete the work I have already done in integrating them.
Re-scaling the entire map can be done simply by using non-visual scale and just selecting all the entities. Unfortunately, this doesn't change the scaling of the effects or the fills, which needs to be done through the respective dialogs.
I did write my own command that just does all of that for me.
There's more information in this blog article, especially in the "Rescaling Things" and "Rescaling the Entire Map" chapters near the bottom of the page.
I felt rather chuffed for a minute as I saw some familiar names; Quentin’s and my surname, Abbott but then I realised it wasn’t named for me but the profession…

mr. @Monsen ive finished my second zone, ready to upload when you wish.
Arthen maps 01 - 09
One more to the collection Mr. @Monsen
Cheers
Another batch of maps from @Ricko Hasche ready in the atlas. Thanks for the contribution.

mr @Monsen , thanks for the tips. Is there any command where you can adjust the scale to the original map?
Here is the corrected file, sorry I accidentally added some images from the image pack that mike schley sells on his private page.
Thank you

Dragon's lair now added to the atlas.
Excellent work Ricko and so prolific!

Any similarity is purely coincidental 🤣
