Only a little progress the last couple of days, work has been busy.
I have very modest picture editing skills, and an even more modest free software tool, but I have managed to add a little detail to the War of the Ring map that will be useful to the campaign. More will be added as time goes by.
Tolkien enjoyed his geography, but tended only to fill in the map as his story developed. That means many places, like Anfalas, seem empty, probably because there are no significant settlements and is sparsely populated anyway. But there will be some modest settlements placed and named as the campaign develops.
The East Gondor map has the stream of Morgulduin added (the true boundary between North and South Ithilien), Osgiliath and Cair Andros, and some labels for places like Lossarnach.
The South Gondor Map similatly has Edelhond, Blackroot Vale and Ronglo Vale added, amongst others.
As I complete the description of Gondor as a faction, I will add more settlements and forts, as each province should have a capital and a principal fortification on the map, not just Belfalas.
Next task is still to finalise the military forces available to Gondor at the beginning of the campaign.
