Map of Elemental

Hammerfell is strangely positioned in just about the same general area where it is in Tamriel.

I've always wondered, were do you come up with the names for the factions, locations, etc? Just random things that pop into your head? Also, is there going to be any significance to the island in the middle of the Bay of Calder? It seems to me like it should.

Nice, simple and pretty. Me likes.

Tidal land bridge?

What about the island in the bay in the top left?  What's it called?

Did anyone else get a sudden urge to use supply depots to block off and siege tank up the Henge?

Where are volcanoes?

This map needs more love volcanoes.

I might be over analyzing this but Lake Gandru doesn't seem that realistic. It has two rivers leaving it both of which go to the sea and on opposite sides of the continent. Water flows down hill and takes the first available opening so which ever river exit was lower would take precedent except maybe in times of heavy rains when the lake rises enough to poor into the 2nd river.

I'm not that familiar with every lake/river in the world but I don't know of any cases of this happening naturally. I say naturally because humans have dug canals to link of several lakes and rivers to create shipping lanes, and those don't really count.

Other wise it's a nice map though.

I call dibs on the big island in the middle!!!

How do you know that it isn't one of the rivers flowing in becuase the ocean is higher on that side?   

The map looks nice, but I'm a bit disappointed that there aren't any important cities on islands. This means that there probably won't be island maps in the campaigns.

Centuries ago Lake Gandru was a vast inland sea, covering much of the east. The cracking of the world broke the sealine, and now the lifeblood of that ocean pours out across a shattered and torn landscape, with multiple rivers drawing upon the once magnificient body of water.

Apocalypse explains all.

Looking closely at it, I would say that one is flowing into the lake (the one on the left) and the other is flowing out (the one on the right). The one on the left goes into the mountains, so my guess is that there is a spring up there, and for some reason the water from that spring diverges in two different directions, one to the lake and one to the ocean. I can totally see how that would be confusing though.

How the hell can it be? O_o What do you mean "higher"?

Though in magic worlds there is universal explanation to everything: "It's because of some magical effect!"

Me thinks that it would be rather pointless battles for those who don't bother for soldiers, just a pointless bloodbath

That's good stuff

You have heard of places that are both "Above Sea Level", and "Below Sea Level"?

How large of a landmass is this representing? It looks fairly big, but then you're calling what looks to be an ocean a bay...

Ah yes. But I never heard of rivers from the oceans. Even if there can be such it's still not very likely for that river to pass through the mountains and the ocean can even flood that lowland. Or I just can't imagine that) If there are such rivers then I'm just wrong)

I assume the campaign take place on this particular map? It looks really good.

Edit: Where are do the Tarth reside? And where is the border between the altar and pariden?

I think it would be safe to assume that the river that originates in the mountains is actually two separate bodies of water that flow to the ocean on either side from collected snowmelt. However, nothing says that the lake can't be an inland sea filled with saltwater at sea level that occasionally gets some runoff from the mountains. 

Or, the whole thing could be a giant chasm filled with saltwater that splits the continent. Your choice.

I'm curious who or what Gandru is or was.  With Lake Gandru in the east and the Gandru River in the west, it must be/have been someone/something important.  Should be an interesting story.

i think i see my house on that map

A quick screen based measurement would indicate roughly 1300 miles across West to East.

Very nice, the only thing that seems to be missing, is the ability to see beaches/cliffs on the paper style maps (which are awesome by the way). The Henge looks vitally important, but that's only if the inner coasts of each continent aren't beached up much, I guess.

I really, really love how you can zoom and get a paper style map in-game, this is going to have me make a Faerun/Forgotten Realms map for definite and is an awesome feature.
