Troll Lord Games

I know that the Trolls are probably just now leaving the Convention Center in Indy, so this may not be something they'll be able to answer right away, but this evening was the first chance I had to look over my Gen Con haul, and among the other things I got from the TLG booth was the softcover Bluffside city book.

After gandering through it for a while I noticed an oddity. Is there not actually a map of the city of Bluffside in there? Credits are listed for cartographers and for a pullout map, but I'm not finding either an actual pullout map or an obvious place where one was attached and perhaps lost before I picked up the book. In fact, I'm not actually finding any maps at all on the interior. Was that a printing gaffe? Did I just get the lucky (erm, unlucky) pick of the litter? Or was this kind of the "beta run" that will be patched up later?

And that said, what would be the chance I could either get a copy of the map to the Bluffside book sent my way, or return my copy of Bluffside to y'all in exchange for a copy that has a map of the city?

You apparently got an unofficial Gen Con only early release. The official full release is yet to happen.

When they do produce the final version I hope they'll send me a copy. But in the meantime, a question for ArgoForg. Please check the timeline and let me know what year the Goblinoid war occurred in following the disappearance of Jarman the Wise?

Jarman the Wise disappears in 1158; the Goblinoid War begins and ends the next year, 1159, according to the timeline in my copy.

Ahhhh, see, that's what I was afraid of. That's what I get for not keeping up here during my computer issues. I thought maybe I'd just missed the full release.

Thanks for replying. That tells me what I needed to know.

Here is the old Regional Map.

And if I have anything to say about all early release GenCon purchasers will get a pdf of all missing info.

That would be awesome, if that is the case!

That's campaign cartographer, isn't it?

Yea back from 2001 or so.

that takes me back!
I did some mapping with the free version back in teh day... I hope i can still open the files with something. eek!

Got Campaign Cartographer and Fractal Mapper both. Fractal is better IMO, but I'm a control freak and decided I still do better mapping by hand than the computer can so went back to 'old school' dwg. Of course, it helps I'm a drafter/engr. tech too. lol

Peter B reworked them all so I it should not be an issue. The maps we still have seem to open as jpg's.

I meant my own personal files. I like to think there's a CC reader DL somewhere.
