Poor Wizard’s Almanac III New Alphatian Region, 72 miles per hex

The third Poor Wizard’s Almanac was also the last. There would be one more almanac, but with a drastically changed format, and no hex maps. In fact, this was to be Mystara’s last published Gazetteer-style hex map. I remember how this felt back in 1994 — a bittersweet feeling, as this map continued the tradition of revealing new areas, and yet it seemed obvious it might be the last to do so.

The new area this time was Skothar: this map provides the only view of the lands east of Faraway, and the best snapshot of Minaea we ever got.
