I hadn’t really set one it since I usually play systems that abstract hex travel, but I’ve read that 6mile hexes are the standard and best practice for hex crawl design.
Thanks for playing! I recommend Thalassa, it’s a Cairn Hack that’s really well themed to the Ancient Greek era. Cairn based games are low fantasy and pretty deadly as there’s not too many powers and abilities.
If you want a more sword and sorcery epic adventurer feel, go for Barbarians Of Lemuria. BOL has very cool mechanics and really makes you feel like an over the top Conan the Barbarian type adventurer. Both of these work well solo too.
There’s so much crammed into this! Super inspiring. It makes me want to do something like this myself!
Just a heads up, it isn’t a big deal, but on the Settlement Creation section in the blank hex map pocketmod, there aren’t any numbers for the d6 tables. Just wanted to point that out in case it isn’t intentional!
Also, for the Isles of the Sea-King, 10. Ruins of Milera seems to be mislabelled - it should be E06 not I10!
Thanks for the kind words! I really tried to fit as much as I could onto a page. As far as the charts go, I was inspired by the slick charts in Maze Rats so yes they're intended not to have numbers. And thank you for the note on Milera, it's been fixed!

Another question, what is the scale of an hex on your map?

This product is nothing short of amazing because it's exactly what I've been looking for! What system would you recommend to play this with?

Hiya Silver! Just got this and noted that the back page has labels superimposed on the contents, wasn't sure if that was intended? Thank you
labels? Def not, I’ll fix it tonight and let you know
can you provide an example? The file looks okay on my end
Oh I was looking at the wrong file. fixed, thanks!
Thank you!
