Colour Glorantha maps?

[Akrasia]

Regarding the grey maps included in the Glorantha core rulebook: are there colour versions of them available anywhere (as PDFs, or otherwise)?

Or even cleaner (i.e., non-grey) versions of those maps?

Thanks.

Never ask about maps... you will only be disappointed.

There are some on the Gloranthan Wiki: http://glorantha.wikia.com/wiki/Special:NewFiles

I noticed that there is a colour PDF entitled 'Ralios' that is rather inexpensive at RPG.now. Does anyone know if this PDF includes *colour* versions of the maps in the RQII Glorantha core book (at least those concerning the Ralios campaign area)?

I can't believe that Mongoose considers the murky grey maps in the corebook useable!

Yes, they are the colour versions of the "murky grey ones" — but that makes them sadly merely "murky colour ones".

That said, they are the best you are going to get for 2nd Age Glorantha.

I note that my PDF version of the Glorantha book has been updated with a colour map. Maybe the later printings will also? That said, there surely must be loads of them online?

There is a large-scale colour Glorantha map on the inside of the main cover to the book.

I was looking for colour versions of the more detailed maps within the book.

As for online maps, most of them seem to be for the 3rd Age, not the 2nd (although I have to confess that I haven't looked too carefully).

Thanks for letting me know!

You always have to remember that maps are a Mongoose "blind-spot".

This isn't just a specifically RuneQuest issue, but affects all product ranges to a greater-or-lesser extent (usually greater).

I wish it wasn't so... but that's how it is.

The RQ1 Glorantha: the Second Age was in color, and when it had it's own section for downloads there was a pack of all the maps, in color, you could download. They weren't the greatest resolution but they worked.

LHM is not too far off though, they are not much better than the B&W versions, though they somewhat easier to use.

Maybe mongoose can post them again as a download for the RQ2 Glorantha book.

I'll see if I have them around somewhere.

What does 'LHM' stand for? :?:
