Geoff’s Vassek, 8 miles per hex
Geoff designed the Realm of Vassek, a small underground area beneath the Adakkian Mounts, in mid 2011. This was his first underground map. It marked the end of an extended period of mapping development that began more than two years earlier. After Vassek, Geoff’s design work shifted away from hex maps once more, instead focusing on collaborative projects, town and city maps, and from 2013 material for Threshold Magazine.
Sean Meaney produced an extended version of Vassek shortly after Geoff’s, but I have been unable to obtain a copy at this time.

Chronological Analysis
This is a fan-made map. It was published in June 2011. 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 2011. (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.
