Solmyr’s Glantri 1013 AC, 8 miles per hex
For an introduction to Aleksei Andrievski’s maps, see the article for Solmyr’s Alphatian Region. This is another of his CC-DOS maps, made by Aleksei in January 1998, then shared on his web site (with an announcement on the MML) in March 1998. Once again, thanks to Remy Monsen for the conversion from CC-DOS to PNG format.
In late 1997, Aleksei made two pairs of hex and non-hex maps, for Karameikos and Minrothad. In both cases the hex map seemed to be a preparation for a final, slightly expanded non-hex map. He returned to the Known World to make another such map in early 1998, choosing the Principalities of Glantri. However, for whatever reason he stopped at the hex map stage, and never completed a non-hex variant. Perhaps the increased complexity of the map put him off, but we’ll probably never know.
It would have been wonderful if we had a complete set of these Known World maps from Aleksei, but unfortunately this was the last he made at this scale. There would be just one more CC-DOS map before he stopped.
Fan-made Map by Aleksei Andrievski (January 1998)
This is an original map created by one of Mystara’s excellent fan cartographers. For more information on the cartographer, including a gallery of all their maps, see also Appendix M: Mappers of Mystara.
The Atlas has been unable to contact the original cartographer. This map therefore appears here without explicit permission from its creator. Any information on how to get in touch with them would be most welcome.

Chronological Analysis
This is a fan-made map. It was published in January 1998 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 1998. (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.
