Hi folks,
I am very sorry, that my life kept me from doing any updates for this blog.
I did some experimenting on zooming in and out of WFRP maps and found a cool’n'easy (!) way for everybody to use this.
You can find out what I did within a few minutes if you visit this web page:

I would love to hear your comments on this blog and I would even more love to inspire you to use it in your own way.
Welly well. I hadn’t visited this site in a long time, but as soon as I did, there was an update
Nice little tool you found there. Yes, zooming and scrolling are easy, and the scolling “after movement” is a nice touch.
BTW, I used Firefox and it worked perfectly for me. Even the full screen button in the image.
For my personal use, I created an offline version of The Empire with the web-published maps of the following cities:
Erendgrad, Praag, Kislev, Middenheim, Dotternbach, Talabheim, Salzenmund, Wurtbad
If you deep-zoom onto one of those cities, you can further deep-zoom into the city map.
Note: No, this is not a feature of the online version of the map. All of those maps are copyright material and I do not have the permission to do this. So, I do not publish that version nor do I forward this to other people. But, you can download those maps from the web and easily do it by yourself. This is VERY EASY stuff with excellent results.
