Karameikos, 6 miles per hex (1981)
The first large scale map of Karameikos in 1981’s Expert Rulebook has been enhanced to include details from the text, as well as X1’s smaller scale Known World map. There wasn’t anything major to add — just a single trail along with some country and terrain names.
This is the resulting updated map of Karameikos, as it would have appeared to a cartographer with access to all the sources back in 1981.
Chronological Map (May 2021)
This map is part of the Mystara 1981 series of chronological maps. It is an updated map, incorporating all available sources and made internally consistent with other maps in its series. But it only uses sources published in or before 1981.
For more information, see Appendix C: Cartographic Chronology.
