Take to the Skies Prepare to travel the skies of Barsoom With the John Carter of Mars. Krenkel Al Williamson Robert Stewart The Reader's Guide to Barsoom and Amptor John Carter of Mars RPG: Airships of Barsoom Map Tiles Information. Definitely worth having for the illustrations and a good vision of what Barsoom looks like, but there are plenty of versions of the map of Barsoom available on-line for folks to use for this purpose. This product was available as an Add-On for the Kickstarter, though it was included with certain pledge levels, but I'm not sure that it's available for purchase as a separate product at all. Beautifully rendered, the detail on this map is stunning (and again, I can't do it justice here with my poor picture taking skills). If the Narrator needs a forgotten palace to crash land in, a vast concourse to fight your way through to freedom, or a maze of wrecked streets for a chase scene, it will be there. The ruins of Korad are designed to have lots of detail for any point in an adventure and draw on John Carter's own descriptions. The reverse side of the map of Barsoom presents the ruins of the city of Korad. It is simply marvellous (my lousy photography skills don't do it justice), and has almost every detail about Barsoom's surface and some other features that one could hope for. An A4 solid heavy paper map that folds to A2 size, measuring 16" x 23-1/2" (40.64 cm x 59.7 cm), this has been lovingly rendered by freelance artist and cartographer Francesca Baerald, and was developed closely with the Estate of Edgar Rice Burroughs to ensure the world map matched his original sketches and also drew on the experience of John Carter experts to produce a truly authentic piece of art. The Poster Map of Barsoom is a very nice, solid product. The first image shows the two pieces of cardboard that the map was sandwiched between. Next up are the photos of the Poster Map of Barsoom for the game. The fifth unbox journal entry covered the Landscape Art Location Deck & the Character and Token Card Deck, which you can see by following the link as noted.
