Here is another Island in the detailed map of Hardin I am doing.

The title is correct - all knights and other nobles have the so-called 'male' titles, regardless of sex, to indicate that this is a FEMALE dominated world. (as the females are SO much stronger in use of innate 'magic' powers, called etherics).

Further work done on this map - added some extra islands - the ones I have been doing for the Community Atlas. renaming not yet done, but the symbols all reorganized. I had to scale them up since the atlas maps were in miles, and the Hardin map is in Km, and I wanted to keep the islands the same size. It also means I will keep the write-up of the islands.

A larger version will be in the Gallery.

Update on the Island Of Kalihirin - it is complete. Now for the write up, then mapping each site.

The island has an area of about 255 sq km, a bit smaller than the Caribbean nation of St Kitts and Nevis, which has a population of about 50,000. So plenty of room for lots of adventure. I always worry about putting too much on a small island, but I am reassured by real world examples. I guess living in the massively big and massively underpopulated country of Australia, where a 100 km drive is considered nothing, makes me leery of putting too much on a small island, like UK or St Kitts and Nevis.

I have decided on another map for the annual sample. I am now able to include alleys and trees in the conversion process, so feel free to add trees and alleys to your generated maps from Watabou.

This is the map I generated from Watabou, including emblem, trees and alleys. It was called Low Rock, which translates to Craig Isel in Welsh, so I am intending to go for a Welsh feel with the names. And the industry will be some sort of iron-working industry, as per the coat of arms.

I have outlined the roads to show them, but in the SVG export, I have unchecked outlines for all except BUILDINGS. I haven't got any fields, so will use Drawtools to add my own.

Here is the result after complete conversion, all using Drawtools, except for the emblem (which I also exported from the generated map).

Here is the sample map so far, using Drawtools only, apart from text.

The final map of the series is now complete. Now for the Map Notes!
