question about map distance


Lost Omens Campaign Setting General Discussion


I know nothing about cartography. Google just tells me distances, so I feel like a moron.

Is this map scale 120 miles for each segment, or is the entire bar 120 miles?

I'm building a hexcrawl for my group, which should be fun.


It's unclear, but I suspect it's 120 miles for the entire bar. I used the more recent map from the Varisia player companion book to plot out distances and travel times for my RotRL character's trip to Sandpoint and I have notes like: Crying Leaf to Riddleport 78 miles, Riddleport to Roderic's Cove 62 miles, yadda, yadda, Wolf's Ear to Galduria 33 miles, etc.

I've seen worse. One map (I forget where) simply had the scale printed with no actual number anywhere, just "Miles".

When a bar is shown with a distance beneath it, that distance refers to the length of the entire rule.
