Still not clear:
Where exactly is the Blacktooth Ridge? I can't quite place any of the A1 map on the old world map. Is it just north of the Outremere map that is online?

Excellent yell0w_lantern. This has been the question of the century for myself and others. My understanding is that BtR is at the eastern most part of Erde ~ sort of . . . off the map. Peter is working on an updated version, so we're all looking forward to seeing it, for sure!!
[Edit: Thanks to Tree for pointing out my direction error!! ]

I have a sneaking suspicion that we'll all find out around this August for sure.

Yeah, I think the setting is about to be reborn a bit. Inconsistances might be fixed up, especially over time.

In the beginning, they reference Outremere as being in the East. Aufstrag is in the North according to one part. Another phrase states that the civilized lands of the South know how to treat royalty but that's in relation to amember of the Botkin family who are from Outremere.
Augstrag in NW of Outremere, but still within the SW region of Aihrde. And being, perhaps the center of Unklar's former reign and still very prominent in the "A" series, another good reason for a well rendered/detailed map of the area. Hope to see it soon!

Actually, I think Rhu used the wrong compas direction. ITs off the East edge of the map, not west. East part of Outremere. With Aufstrag being more West by North West from the Ridge. Rather than North by Northwest from the heart of Outremere.

Since its 20,000 I suggest "Captain Nemo" as his title. Beyond the obvious connection, he is one who sails on his own terms and ignores those he doesn't agree with...confident in his journey and goals.

Heh, I just used the map out of the Codex, page 164. Aufstrag is NW of Outremere. And again, both areas are in the SW of Erde, as it indicates right on the map page.
As for Botkinburg and the Blacktooth Ridge, we only know that it's in east Outremere, nothing more.

Sorry Tree, I though you were refering to my just above when in fact, you were referring to one right after the OP. You are correct, I did mean that I thought Botkinburg/BtR were at the EASTERN end of Outremere.
Sheesh, and I had Peter on the ropes at one point at the CON, I should have had him draw a quick map to show exact location!!
'Course, I would have had to pay him, but it would have been worth it!!

You don't suppose it's in the wilderness between Aufstrag and Outremere so that Aufstrag really is just to the North of Botkinburg et al?
That is where I have it for my Erde game.
Your welcome Rhu. Us senile old guys got to keep each other from getting confused.
