“We leave at dawn and travel on the road from Boldhome to Clearwine!”, a simple statement but one loaded with questions and the possibility of adventure.
What time is dawn?
How long will the journey take?
Is there even a road to take or will the party have to travel overland?
Inspired by the cartography of the RuneQuest Starter Set by Jeff Richards and Matt Ryan, Highways and Byways tackles the dilemma of every adventurer; how to get from point A to point B.
Illustrated throughout with images evocative of the diverse regional geography Highways and Byways contains:
Notes on travel, movement and mounts
An expanded calendar with both Theylian and Lunar naming conventions
Times for sunrise, sunset and available daylight hours for travel each day
Distance tables for all major road and waterways
Descriptions of 48 regions covered by the Starter Set map
Clean maps showing borders and routes for each region
Suggested names for unassigned locations
Indexed trade destinations
Distances in both metric and imperial units
Separate large scale route map of the expanded region
Whether you are planning logistics for a military campaign, devising the most optimal trade route or simply just trying to work out a better way to grandma’s house avoiding the wolf haunted woods,
