I think if everytime a book is published about DW, doing what was done with the power of darkness and Glissom would help a lot the Wiki and for promoting the game :
give Maps (beautiful and complete) and background of an area (after the north of Albony, and Glissom, we could have the north of Chaubrette, South of Mercania etc.

A bit as discovering legends step by step, this was one reason of the success of "Fabled lands", I guess.

Btw, good job with Breylak, :)

Being a fan of Scandanavian folk lore and Norse myth, I think Mercania, Wyrd, Yggdras (and, to a lesser extent, Krarth) would be nice to flesh out.

Great.
Is it only background, or will you draw maps (with towns, villages, etc...) which are time-eating as said cobwebbed forest?

thank you

If you sketch something, I'll happily whip it up in Campaign Cartographer. I did turn this (http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_edfdVc9_vCE/TFaLO3AicEI/AAAAAAAABVQ/zyuzphSHXts/s1600/Brymstone_in_DW_Book_7-location.jpg) into this (http://cobwebbedforest.co.uk/images/Brymstone_fs.JPG), and I have another example of working from one of Dave M's sketches here (http://fabledlands.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/here-be-dragons.html). My piece de resistance (anyone know how to do accents?) is my transformation of the Yamato maps from the original hand-drawn sketches, but sadly the original sketches aren't public domain (nor my copyright to share here). You'll just have to take my word for it ;)

I'm always happy to service our community and mapping is something I want to practise, so any opportunity would be welcome!

Well I'm happy to be serviced by you. *snerk*

I'll forward some stuff along once I get actual days off.

Brymstone is a more a local area, than a regional, but your creation is amazing (as did dreadnought for Breylak).
Do you have a background for Brymstone and all the landmarks (villages...) we see on it?

A cool regional map would be the size of North Albony everyone knows (Half of Chaubrette, mercania, Thulan, Algandy etc...)

you re great guys, :)

Sadly, no. Dave Morris has hinted on his blog that a Dragon Warriors Book 7 might have focused on a Brymstone campaign, but has not released any of the details or original notes (although I can't remember whether this is because he's lost them...). All that he's made available on his blog is the sketch of the area and another sketch of the city of Brymstone itself (http://fabledlands.blogspot.co.uk/2010/08/town-of-brymstone.html).

A Thuland sourcebook, complete with a full detailed map of Thuland and a Brymstone campaign would make a fantastic supplement, and one I'd part with a few pennies to own :).
