Contents

Wilderlands of the Fantastic Reaches is a campaign setting that describes the locations on four large wilderness maps (Wilderness Maps 15-18).[2]

The regions of the Isle of Dawn (#15), the Southern Reaches (#16), the Silver Skein Isles (#17), and the Ghinor Highlands (#18)[3] are shown in full detail on the judge's maps and are roughly sketched out on the players' maps. The booklet describes and gives the location of many of the villages, castles, islands, ruins, relics, and monsters.[1]

Publication history

Wilderlands of the Fantastic Reaches features a cover by Paul Jaquays, and was published by Judges Guild in 1980 as two 16-page booklets, four large maps, and a cover sheet.[2]

Reception

William Fawcett reviewed Wilderlands of the Fantastic Reaches in The Dragon #44.[4] Fawcett commented that "This set of maps and their index is one of the most massive efforts of the Judges Guild. These maps when viewed as a whole are a gigantic effort and have to be considered one of the major projects in roleplaying games. When all spread out, these are the only gaming maps that surpass the GDW Europa maps in size."[4]

gollark: > First of all, we need to emphasize that the Pi Node software has not been released yet. So this section is offered more as an architectural design and as a request to solicit comments from the technical community. This software will be fully open source and it will also heavily depend on stellar-core which is also open source software, available here. This means that anyone in the community will be able to read, comment and propose improvements on it. Below are the Pi proposed changes to SCP to enable mining by individual devices. !!!
gollark: > Pioneer. A user of the Pi mobile app who is simply confirming that they are not a “robot” on a daily basis. This user validates their presence every time they sign in to the app. They can also open the app to request transactions (e.g. make a payment in Pi to another Pioneer)Hmm.
gollark: Presumably, if you run 1000000 emulators, they'll just exile you.
gollark: Ah, that makes sense then.
gollark: Oh, it's one of those federated whatevers.
