Syntopicon:
Gotta tell ya, that almost looks like France...
Mind the almost there.

I could be wrong here but wouldnt garados(sp) and the pine barren's be west of bernarholdt? since the marat didnt come through the sea of ice to get to the pine barrens? maybe I need a reread but jus looking at the maps I dont see the why the pine barrens would be important for a marat invasion at the current position you have on your map tell me if im wrong here :)

I haven't been paying much attention to this thread, so when I just dropped in and saw how much work had been done since I last saw the "original"... I'm blown away! With no disrespect to the original, I'm so impressed at how it's actually looking like a real map now. The geek in me (okay, what part of me *isn't* the geek?) is feeling particular glee at how the coast of the Canim bloodlands fits suspiciously well into the Carna's coast bordering the Sea of Ice. It makes me think of how well South America fits into Africa, and the science of plate tectonics.
Everyone involved in this project deserves a pat on the back! I'm stickying this topic. Belgarion, you might want to keep the first post in this thread updated with links to the latest version of the maps for easy access, like we do for the Timeline threads.

I've been putting the links in each of my posts. How do I keep the first post updated with the links? I'll be glad to do it, no problem.

And to answer this you're not wrong, I have been thinking of moving the memorium south and more east below the causeway. It would make more sense for Septimus to have made a stand there. But the pines were definitely north of Bernardholt. The Marat were out scouting the valley. I think the pine forest was just in the way.
I've been waiting for more suggestions before I update the maps. :) Keep questioning, it will help us make the maps more accurate.
