Thibault’s Mystara, 72 miles per hex 2000
Thibault created this map combining all of his 72 mile per hex maps in 2000. It was the first time he had made such a map; I assembled the combined maps from previous years much later, to show Thibault’s coverage during those years.
The first version appeared in June, and Thibault posted about it on the Mystara Mailing List at the time. He completed Brun at last, and Alphatia with it. Strangely, he left out Vulcania, although he had already mapped it in multiple versions by this time.
An update in November added the missing region, as well as rivers in Davania, and detailed coastlines in various places (notably the Known World, the Thanegioth Archipelago, and northeastern Davania). It also changed the hex grid to black and implemented the new palette, with orange badlands.
With this huge milestone behind him, Thibault was free to turn his full attention to larger scales, with the intent to create a version of this map at the iconic 24 mile per hex scale.
