  • Britannia (Parchment World)

    I added the version of the map without the mist over Hybernia to my gallery, in case anyone wanted to look at it. To me, the mist really adds to the map and Hybernia isn't nearly as interesting without it. In this game, almost nothing is known about Hybernia, so I didn't put anything there other than the major lakes and rivers (w/ my own mishmash of Gaeilge names).

    Both are now linked in the OP.

  • Britannia (Parchment World)

    I made a few changes:

    1. Added Antonine Wall, Hadrian's Wall, and Offa's Dyke
    2. Thinned what would be Sherwood Forest so that it isn't quite so overwhelming
    3. Added the campaign "home base" settlements along the Great Ouse

    I also figured out how to sharpen the image in the OP, and relinked to the updated gallery image. I think this one is all wrapped up now.

    Thank you all for the kind words!

    @Dak - Lancashire? :D

    @JulianDracos - I added the clouds in Affinity Photo. They're the "Fog 4" brush from the Dreamscapes brush pack.

    @Royal Scribe After I did an innocuous Google search about starting an LLC, Rocket Lawyer started bugging the heck outta me about getting going on it. One of their suggestions was a trademark, and that prompted me to make this. I think your forum icon would be a great start on a maker's symbol for you - I've admired it for awhile.

    @Lorelei - I continue to be humbled and gratified every year by the dedication of my friends to our gaming weekend, and amazed at the excitement we all have for it not only during the event but throughout the entire year. This will be year 19!

    We're starting a new campaign for our annual "LakeCon" this year, and the first GM in our round-robin rotation asked me for a map. The setting is an alternate history Britain/Scotland/Ireland, about 150 years after the Romans left. I'm pretty happy with this one. Everything is from the new Fractal Parchment World style, with the exception of the trees - they're from the 2022 Jon Roberts Revisited style. The mist/clouds over the mysterious fae lands of Hibernia were added in post production in Affinity Photo.

    The final map for the group I exported as a layered PDF so that the mist can be turned off if/when we need a clear view of the fae lands.

    Thanks, Sue! Multipoly created big black solid squares around each letter (maybe because of the way the font was defined?), but group worked a treat - exactly what I was looking for!
