Glantri 2E Glantri, 8 miles per hex

The second (and unfortunately last) major boxed set for AD&D 2nd Edition Mystara focused on the Principalities of Glantri, updating the nation to 1013 AC to reflect all the changes that occurred during Wrath of the Immortals and the Poor Wizard’s Almanac series.

The main drastic change is the effect of Alphaks’ meteor strike: the Great Crater, and the ruined principalities around it. Otherwise, the map is a straight redo of GAZ3’s map, right up to the featureless terrain used in neighbouring lands.

Additions

• Dominions — Morlay-Malinbois makes its first appearance here, although it was previously referenced in PC4 (1992). New Kolland is a new principality appearing here for the first time.
• Settlements — Blackstone is a new tower on the site of the previous tower of Redstone.

Revisions

• Rivers — Many of the rivers (all except Arnus River and Red River) appear as bare names without “River” appended. This is a cosmetic change, of little consequence.
• Settlements — Camp Huledain has had its label inverted; up until now it was always Huledain Camp on maps. However, note that GAZ3’s text has always had Camp Huledain, so this revision actually puts the map in line with the original text. Skullhorn is a new shortened name for the previous Skullhorn Pass tower.
• Spelling — Errors: Huladain for Huledain; Kutcheviski for Kutchevski; Les Hibou for Les Hiboux.
• Terrain — The Northern Wastelands, noted to be claimed by Hule, is the latest name for the plateau known as the Wastelands (GAZ3), the Great Northern Wildlands (Wrath), and the Adri Varma Plateau (Champions).

Hex Art & Fonts

• Symbols — AD&D Mystara series standard. Symbols extend past the edges of hexes, and the palette is much higher contrast than the Gazetteer series maps, more closely resembling 1st Edition AD&D maps.
• Fonts — Feinen throughout.
