There's an Atlas of Middle Earth, which isn't gamer oriented, but can easily be used for gaming.As someone who likes to homebrew but who doesn’t make maps, I would love a collection of connected maps all belonging to the same world. Maps that include a world or at least a continental map, regional maps, maps of towns and cities, and adventuring locations. I don’t want a detailed setting, just the maps. I’ll fill in the rest.
I l would think many homebrewers would like collections like this, but they are surprisingly hard to come by. The closest I’ve seen are the old Forgotten Realms Atlas and Atlas of the Dragonlance World books. But those are such well-known, detailed, and trodden worlds, I don’t think I want to use those.
Does anybody know of such collections? I prefer books, but online resources are welcome.
There's also an Atlas of Pern. I don't have it... but I've seen it, and it's comparable to the Atlas of Middle Earth in scope and details
Thorsten Renk has a bit of an atlas of Darkover going. https://webhome.phy.duke.edu/~trenk/darkover/darkover_map.html
Mystara has a large map collection - and Thorfinn Tate has collated fan redraws. Atlas of Mystara
There are also overworld maps of any number of CRPGs and Computer Strategy games. I've generated and printed maps for friends using the map editor in Civ 2 Gold a few times.
Then, there's Worldographer... it can random generate maps at a desired scale, and extrapolate them to larger or smaller scale layers, given enough ram. It's the current versions of what started as Hexographer. Hexographer 1 was still up for in-browser use... and it can generate you worlds.
Sim Earth was used by a couple friends for generating their campaign worlds.
