Cthulhudrew’s Atruaghin, 8 miles per hex
Andrew’s second map in 2004 was his biggest yet, and one with great significance. It presented for the first time a revised version of the Atruaghin Clans, fixing the plateau, which for some reason was shrunk rather drastically in GAZ14’s original map.
The new plateau was based on 24 mile per hex maps, which showed a significantly larger plateau than GAZ14’s 8 mile per hex map had provided. This in turn led to revisions to the areas around the plateau, and especially the coastal plain south of the plateau, the lands of the Children of the Turtle and the Children of the Tiger.
The Atlas version of this map, which first appeared the following year in 2005, referenced Andrew’s revised Atruaghin, and this map remains an important one in Mystara’s cartographic chronology.

This is a fan-made map. It was published in 2004. The updated Atlas version of this map is not yet available. See also Appendix C for annual chronological snapshots of the area. For the full context of this map in Mystara’s publication history, see the upcoming Let’s Map Mystara 2004. (Please note that it may be some time before the project reaches this point.)
The following lists are from the Let’s Map Mystara project. Additions are new features, introduced in this map; Revisions are changes to previously-introduced features; Hex Art & Fonts track design elements; and finally Textual Additions are potential features found in the related text. In most cases, the Atlas adopts these textual additions into updated and chronological maps.
