    Question Map from Romulan Boxed Set

    I didn't know exactly where to ask this, but since it is a LUG product and a question of soughts, well...

    Moderators: Owen/Dan feel free to move this if it isn't in the right spot.

    Who actually did the map and what information did they base it off?

    Because on a spur of the moment idea, I contrasted the map with the real galaxy maps/pics from 'The Guide To The Galaxy' (email if ya want the link: not to hand)
    And the funny thing is that they match up really quite well. And thus a rather impressive insight into the size of the Trek universe and the Feds,Klings and Roms in particular.
    (I've done some drawings to, email if want as well; well modified the real maps anyway)

    Definately comments please!

    Unfortunely the only scan of 250ly scale map is in german for stdimension.

    THe links I sent have the 25 and 50 ly scale maps in english and high res compared to the same scale that stdimension has.

    Of course I had to redraw some borders a few times and thus did a very rough job of it as a whole.

    Thanks!

    And a couple of Rommie stars you can probably associate with the maps as well fairly freely.

    Could you please send it to me, too?

    I´m sure that the language won´t be a problem.

    I asked for the map not even 24 hours ago, so you were really fast. But I´ll mail any further requests directly to you.

    Thank you!

    All I meant is that I may not of seen the request on the boards for some time, while email I check frequently.

    No matter, everyone is getting them quick

    Certainly a cleaner revision will be in order down the track, especially if someone has an english version of 'The Guide To The Galaxy' by Nigel Henbest and Heather Couper. And if they could scan the pics too would be brill!
