Does Helios traverse at a consistent rise/set position, or does Hyperborea also "twist" as it orbits?

What I like about the Goodman hefty book is the original is there, and there's the 5e version plus critters, so I am likely able to deal with the monsters, etc.  (and I'v been GMing since '76, so on-the-fly stuff is doable).

I'm pondering Hyperborea and The Lost City "reincarnated" from Goodman. Before I dive in and prep, I wondered if anyone else has tried such a thing? Things look straightforward, and I plan d20+FA+mods+AC 20+ for to-hit success--so clean. I might start with 4 core classes to keep things simple for players, but we'll see how "adventurous" they are.

That canvas map might be a must for my table;)

That Runegraver is awewome. 

Glad you like it! It is probably important to design a map like that to actual size; meaning, if you plan to print a map on canvas that is 11 x 17 inches, I would suggest that you not blow it up too much, because you can start to lose quality -- unless it is 600 dpi high resolution in a lossless file format. After that, there are canvas printers probably in  every city!
 

Huh, will search around (Pittsburgh area). My plan is to put together a 22x34 hex map of the campaign world (I have lots of blank hex maps that size).

Hmm, just thought of a question about 2nd edition. Are you going to have margin indicators on the page edges? I find that such is critical for making a text easy to reference.

Thoughts on cover art? My hope if for something with less 'cheese cake' as I monitor rpg stuff and manga, etc., for my teen age boys. Either way, I'll probably back this, as I love the setting and the AD&D "purification" of the rules.
