GAZ7 Soderfjord, 8 miles per hex Overview
As noted in the post for the full overview map, this was an excerpt of that map with added dominion numbers. This third and final map covered the dominions of Soderfjord. As with Ostland and Vestland, the dominions are numbered on the map, corresponding to a list in the text of GAZ7.
This map had one peculiar feature in that some of the numbers for Vestland were also included. While this could have caused some initial confusion, the borders of the countries are clearly marked, so it was a minor issue.
