GAZ6 Rockhome, 24 miles per hex
Rockhome’s overview map in GAZ6 had a single adjustment, shifting Dengar one hex to the north. However, this is not in line with the 8 mile per hex map, which kept it in the same place it had been since its debut in X10.

It’s a colour map. Thus, the lakes should have a lake colour. Remember that they are some 25 miles across; that’s the width of the Amazon in the wet season. It’s not like some small insignificant streamlet.

I couldn’t agree more. It was likely an oversight — and indeed one that was made multiple times in Mystara’s history.
However, I won’t be correcting it. This map is a replica of the official one, and as such it faithfully reproduces whatever mistakes and weirdness were inherent in the original. For an updated/corrected version, see the Chronological maps or the Updated maps series. (As of this writing, Known World, 24 miles per hex (1986) is the most recent version available.)
