Blackmoor map scale fun

[Havard]

Thanks for that Havard - was that the 3e players handbook?

No, this was the 3E Softcover version of the Core Book. It also included some revisions expansions to the 3E Hard Cover such as the Monk of the Fallen Stars Class which I first found out about from Big Mac at The Piazza.

There was a separate Player's Guide to Blackmoor, but there was no map in that one.

Anyway, it sounds like the scale was 0-80 and then was "corrected" to 0-40 and then was either re-corrected back to 0 -80 or else the correction silipped through the cracks when the 4e book was prepared.

Does that sound right?

I think that is correct, although for some reason I always imagined that Dustin wanted to change it the other way around to make the setting bigger. Their lisence from WotC prevented them from developing the world outside the map, so I thought they wanted the world to be as big as possible.
