canonical world maps

[Malenfant]

Does anyone know what canonical (including GT) world maps have been published for Traveller over the ages? (and where to find them)

More to the point, are any of these online anywhere?

Isn't there a map of Mithral in Mission to Mithral? I don't have access to my adventure books right now. I remember reading Nomads of the Ocean World several times, but I can't recall if it had a world map.

Didn't Tarsus also get a world map?

There were several maps in various DGP works (oh well . . .).

There's a few maps in various Judges Guild products, which were approved.

I think you can pick up a lot of that in .PDF format at DriveThru RPG. I'd put the link, but I'm not sure exactly what it is. There were also a few world maps in The Traveller Adventure. They were in Aramis SubSector, if I remember right.

Hope that helps,

Scout

How about more recent ones? I know the GT Sword Worlds book has a lot of world maps.

I'm just wondering how hard it would be to convert them into textures for 3D rendering...

Canon or not DGP had loads of maps including but not exhaustive;
Terra
Vland
Regina
Corridor Depot
Kusyu
but for some serious mapping check out Flaming Eye for numerous world maps from the coreward end of Vland.

I'll need to do some digging but I think there were some maps in the original GDW alien modules, I'm especially thinking of Zhdant though it may just have been well described

The GT Traveller's Guide books include world maps of the world in question. (Though for some reason not one of Glisten.

)
Lair and Vland were both in Vlani and Vargr from DGP.

Fulacin/Rhylanor/Spinward Marches is in Twilight's Peak. (Adventure 3)
NewComb/Banasdan/Solomani Rim is in Prison Planet. (Adventure 8)
Bellerophon/Esperance/Solomani Rim is in Nomads of the World Ocean. (Adventure 9)
567-908/District 268/Spinward Marches is in Safari Ship. (Adventure 10)
Zhdant is in Alien Module 4 Zhodani.

750-857(Hansen's World)/Diamond-Prince/Ley is in Gateway to Destiny.


Surprisingly Linkworlds Cluster, Sydymic Outworlds Cluster and EAs 1-5 don't contain any planetary maps. Neither does any of the TAs. (Including Into the Mind.)

I know I have seen Regina/Regina/Spinward Marches somewhere, but I can't seem to find it.

And the Software, Heaven and Earth will generate maps for any system and world you take a liking to.

Not saying it will be Canon, but it does generate a nice map.

There is a map of Eddum/Dagudashaag 0531) in the MT Book COACC

 

[Border Reiver]

Regina was featured in DGP's World Builder's Handbook.

There was another fair selection of maps to be found in;

Knightfall (MT)
Path of Tears (TNE)
Almost any Traveller's Digest or Megatraveller Journal.

Vanejen/Rhylanor is in Research Station Gamma.

Dont forget the TNE supplements which had loads of world maps...

Terra is specifically in Invasion Earth.
There are some really poor resolution maps in the ground combat expansion for Imperium.

Several are in the Traveller Adventure. Most Memorable are Psaydi and the map of the habitation are of Aramis. Aramis is not surface inhabited.

CT's adventures and double adventures often included maps. Nomads of the World Ocean, Marooned and Across the Bright Face come immediately to mind.

Tarsus is, of course, in the Tarsus Adventure.

Shibasilim (Core 1316) is in T4 Psionic Institutes.

Note thhat Kusyu and Sol are in the DGP Solomani and Aslan, and the sol map has subtle differences (like where the NAm SP is) from Invasion Earth (GDW).
