Christian’s Hule, 24 miles per hex

Christian Constantin’s expanded Hule is surely one of the most respected fan-developed areas of Mystara. It began when he posted four maps to the Mystara Mailing List in early May 1999. For months afterwards, he continued to post articles as well as new maps adding much-longed for detail to the mysterious nation of Hule and its neighbours.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, he chose 24 miles per hex as the scale for this map, matching the iconic Known World map. As with that map, everything is essentially already present here, despite the relatively small scale. You can clearly see just from this map that Christian had brought together all existing data on Hule, such as it was, and expanded it greatly.

This map remained a highly influential and indeed central part of the setting until Christian revisited it in 2014, producing an updated version.
