Ramelin’s Ethengar, 8 miles per hex v1
November 2015 was a momentous month for Jose’s project, as he finalised more than thirty individual maps over a couple of days. The first set covered most of the Known World, while the second finished that off and then moved west to cover the Serpent Peninsula and the Savage Coast.
This map from the second set continued to deal with the western borders of the Known World. As far as I can see, Jose never produced a stand-alone version of his original Ethengar map, although parts of it are visible on maps of surrounding nations. This was therefore his first full Ethengar map, but it depicts his alternate view of an Ethengar shifted up onto the Adri Varma Plateau rather than the original Ethengar. In doing this, he expanded the nation, giving the horse lords more space, as well as an area of natural expansion to the northwest.
