Britannia 400 AD, in six-mile hexes

Thanks, Barefootgaijin.

I am mulling over doing a gazetteer and/or setting book of sorts, but a) it's a lot of work and b) I haven't decided on the period for my own game yet.

I'll circle the topic in a few posts over on the site's blog over Golden Week; feel free to take a peek.

If you could come up with a Gazetteer in a neutral, TSR-era-compatible system, you could probably bundle the two and sell them on DTRPG pretty easily.

EDIT: You, too, can make dozens of dollars in the lucrative world of RPG publishing!

EDIT2: Or, better yet, run a Kickstarter before you begin (to make it worth your while, mind) creating the book, but make sure you have a reasonable target, like, saaay...$1,000,000!

Too bad its not 1456 England, or we could synch it up to the Dark Albion setting.

Well, the terrain didn't change all that much; just fewer swamps and forests.

The major cities should all still be in place, too, with a few more added, especially in Scotland. Forts and castles would take the most work, plus roads.

I am currently doing research on which cities fell into ruin when, and what their names changed into; will publish a list and an aged version of the map one of these days.

Awesome! I look forward to seeing it!

Great map. Mythic Britian for Runequest 6 may be out by Gen Con. Not sure if the years synch up, but the map may still be useful.
