Cthulhudrew’s Limn, 8 miles per hex
Andrew sent me his work-in-progress map of Limn in May 2012. Bruce Heard had just kicked off his series of blog posts detailing Alphatia, and I had just started remaking his maps.
I believe Andrew made his map somewhat earlier, but I have been unable to track down our conversation leading up to him sending me the files.
In any case, this map is an attempt to normalise Sverre Midthjell’s 2001 Limn map with the Dawn of the Emperors Alphatia map. Sverre’s map was an amazing early map of Alphatia — likely the first at this scale — but he changed the coastlines quite a bit. Andrew’s map was meant to merge the two maps, making them more compatible.
There has been talk since of merging Sverre’s vision of Limn into Bruce’s, but I don’t think anyone has done this yet.

Work in progress map: This map is incomplete. It appears here in the most recent state available, but it may be missing certain elements.
