Distance Table for Golarion


Lost Omens Campaign Setting General Discussion

I was beginning to work on something I remember from the road map Atlas (Back before we had a newfangled device that could pinpoint our location by satellite and store detailed roadmaps for an entire country in a box no bigger than a calculator!)
I'm talking about a Distance Table, showing the mileages between major Golarion Cities.

I started pulling a list of settlements out of the ISWG, when I realized I might not be able to share my work with fellow gamers, due to the Community Use Policy.

Would something so innocuous as a list of settlements, their populations, and the approximate distances between them along trade routes be prohibited?

I would love to see something like this. I created one for my old 2nd edition FR campaign and it amazed me how much trouble and time is saved in my game.

As for whether its covered by whatever, that's a question for the good folks at Paizo.

I don't think Paizo would mind as long as you gave it away for free. They don't seem to mind when people post varies stuff up in the AP forums to tweak the AP's or add side treks and such.

This is also something you could most likly post up on The Wiki But you would need to know what page numbers the maps you used were on.

Yeah something like this would be fantastic, it is something I wished was in the world guide a list of travel distance by land and then by water(either sea or river). I would just add so much to be able to look at that at a glance and say. Ok it will take you guys 5 days by horse along the southern trade road to reach Westcrown, for example.

Names of cities are available under the Community Use Policy.

Thanks Vic!
Populations, however, are not?

Populations are fine too.

You want to check the stuff under Permissions in the Community Use Policy.

A table would be quite nice to have access to. I use the somewhat-reliable old school method of a knotted string in conjunction with my Golarion poster map, so more accurate distance would be peachy.
Believe you me, converting the distances was not fun. According to the scale given on the bottom, 7.5 inches [or 19cm] equals 420 miles.
