Sturm’s Glantri 1012 AC, 8 miles per hex v1
After the Isle of Dawn, Francesco made his first of what would soon become many forays into the heart of the setting, the Known World. The subject he chose was Glantri. And after his highly creative maps of Davania, he didn’t just reprise the official map, but went one step further, adding lots of new details of his own.
The setting for the map is 1012 AC, according to Francesco’s web site. The presence of Aengmor confirms this, although this is a Glantri without the Great Crater; presumably in his campaign the meteor strike on Glantri was avoided.
It doesn’t have much of an effect on most of the labels, and therefore may not be immediately apparent, but parts of the map are in Italian. This may be one of the earliest maps produced in Italian, although it certainly wouldn’t be the last, as the Mystara Italia community has continued to create many wonderful maps ever since.
Francesco would revisit this map a few years later to add even more details.

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.
