Is there a political map of all of Kulthea somewhere?
« on: December 04, 2019, 05:53:54 AM »
The Shadow World Master Atlas (4th edition) contains information on all continents of Kulthea, not just Emer and Jaiman. Sure, much of that is intentionally vague, but certain things are given with which to flesh out an area further.

However, there is no map of all of Kulthea that does more than denominate the continents and their base geography in the book. However, for selecting your campaign area to flesh out on your own, that would be quite helpful. Is there any document or publication that has this? Or is one planned?

I think only Jaiman ever had a political map. The situation in Emer is massively fragmented, and no "borders" were given, even in the Emer atlases.
I made some things! Azukail Games

I do have a political map of Emer. It is in a pdf, called 'Realms of Emer'. It is based on the larger Emer map that had little inset pictures in it, some of them computer generated graphic. There are then companion political maps of each of the four regions of Emer. I'm not sure where I got them, but they are pretty well made; I imagine I got them together with the Emer download, or perhaps a version of the Master Atlas?

Of course, there are the individual continent maps from the respective regional books, but I am specifically looking for a world map, so that I can see at one glance how the political situation and the species populations are across the Western Hemisphere.

Just glancing through the master Atlas it looks there is enough information to create a global political map. Maybe it's a project ICE could look at undertaking.

Yes, there is no global political map that I know of; I was just pointing out that there are political maps of Emer.
