Introducing Blackmarsh

[robertsconley]

When I did my review of First Fantasy Campaign, I intended on finding an old Dutch Map and drawing it up as a fantasy map as the final post. But alas I couldn't quite figure out which old dutch map to use or how it looked anything like Blackmoor.


But now thanks to James Mishler of Adventures in Gaming, I get how it was used.

The map James shows it a bit too low res. So after some searching I find this map.

After clipping and flipping I got my proto blackmoor area. Following James' ideas leads to the following map.
