Which is why some of us have spent some time and effort trying to find out what the problem is. Complaining that the books (one of which he hasn't even seen) don't have the information he wants, when he won't tell us what the information actually is doesn't help. Banging on that myths are useless in a game that is heavily mythical is, at the least, somewhat perverse.

His major complaint seems now to be a lack of decent, official maps for Sartar (or indeed most other places). There, at least, I agree with him. Although I believe, Issaries does intend to correct this, in the fullness of time... Hopefully they will take the hint, and more useful maps will appear in Orlanth is Dead, even if we have to wait until later for the definitive map of Dragon Pass itself.

Cheers,
Graham
