Figured you'd like it!!!

Unfortunately though it looks like I might have to change my plans for the world. With the whole "Old World" being re-released by GW, I'm guessing I need to come up with an alternative. I was thinking I might actually base the world off of the original map drawn by Dave Morris. That at least will remove it somewhat from the old world and some of the Warhammer lore.

Dave Morris The Empire.png


I've recreated the map Dave Morris drew when he wrote the first Novel. I note too that this looks similar to the maps in the other 2 books but is slightly different. The other maps don't align with the WH world either - some names are similar but it's essentially different.

I'm going to be using this going forward with my project - just to keep it totally separate from the WH and Hasbro stuff...

At quick glance I noticed Cabiri had too many Rs.

Thanks for pointing that out!!! I'm pretty certain I haven't got all of those names correct so if you see any others, let me know and I'll update the map.

I've also reached out to Dave to see if he would be willing to have a quick look over it to see if he remembers what he wrote and whether he can point out any errors.

OK. So I reached out to Dave Morris (the original author of the map and the HQ novels) and he was kind enough to reply with a number of corrections. So this is the final product.

Dave also mentioned he was keen to feature the map in an upcoming post on his http://fabledlands.blogspot.com/ blog. So hopefully we'll see it up there in the not too distant future. I'll post the link in this thread when it pops up.

Will be looking to create some more detailed maps of each of the regions as well.
