Revised Blackmoor + C&C map

[aldarron]

Interesting.

Any chance of getting a higher resolution of the map? Some labels are a little hard to read.

I'll email you a copy, but some of it is just old poor resolution doodles.

Tangor is a name from the Mystara franchise. If you want to keep this strictly 1970s style/Arnesonian, a more appropriate name would be The Jungle Realm. In my own projects I try to appeal both to regular Blackmoor fans and Mystara fans, so I use "Jungle Realms of Tangor".

Yeah I know. I liked your ideas about Tangor so I left it on the map. That could be removed. I've been assuming the Bolgere Islands can be matched with "The lordship of the isles" from GH, which is also a "Jungle Realm", though the ethnicity seems different, I've been borrowing details from that.

Cirkhosia and Salik is a curious combination. The only thing known about Cirkhosia is that a Circkhosian Merchant once visited Jarl Thorsen of the Skandaharians. It seems a bit far removed from the Skandaharian lands for that, but I suppose real world Vikings did travel farther.

Both appear to be middle-eastern derived names(cirkhosian/circassian and DJiin of Salik) so they seemed a natural fit. That plus I assume traveling merchants are likely from very far away, seeking exotic goods or selling the same. The cirkhosians likely travel by ship and the one in skhandahar was probably seeking amber- not unlike such trade routes between northern europe and the middle east historically.
