I understand. All I can say is that I deliberately designed these settings to drop into an existing campaign. I wrote or collaborated on nine of these and they are all designed to do thise. Most referees I know have blanks on the edge of their maps or areas that are lightly detailed. On a greyhawk map this will roughly fit 6 hex across and 3 up and down. It occupies a quarter of a Wilderlands map.
I do plan on trying something similar to the Judges Guild Wilderness scale where each hex is .2 miles. With the locales detailed rather than lightly described. Probably will have that finished that next year. I got other stuff in the queue before that.
I am not trying argue with you but using this as an opportunity to explain why I write these the way I do.
I agree that between Greyhawk, Forgotten Realms, Golarion, Tekemul, Blackmoor, that the broad fantasy setting has been done to death. But I feel aside from the Wilderlands and Keep on the Borderland nobody has done much work with hexcrawls. That it is a useful format to develop.
As general note for everybody reading this, the free PDF is designed to print as a 24 page digest book using Adobe Reader. I know people don't really like reading a lot of text on the screen so made it easy to get into a readable format.
Not an argument. Just saying what, as a customer, would get my money. Good looking product. But when you point to what I am saying and say 'this is what this product is!' I just want to make sure you understand that, no it isn't.
