    Post Help request for article about RPG medieval maps

    Hello, friends:

    I have been working for the past few days on an "article" detailing the basic composition of medieval cartography, for use by RPG mapmakers who wish to create authentic feeling maps.

    I began a similar list some time ago in order to improve my own maps, but then I decided to expand and systematize it for others' eyes as well. At first I foolishly thought this would be simple to write, but as always it turned into a tangled forest of no return, through which I hacked my way for some time until I created the draft I have attached to this thread.

    If you have any interest and free time, I could really use some feedback on it. Ideas, suggestions, additions, critiques... and (especially) point out any mistakes. Anything at all will help.

    I'm not sure what I will ultimately do with this article; I may submit it somewhere or (more likely) I'll post the finished copy here in the Guild in a new thread.

    Thanks a million,
