Description I set about the impossible task of correlating and reconciling the map of the Koronus Expanse from the Rogue Trader book pages 338-339 and the one found on the inside cover of all the Rogue Trader books. In my personal opinion, it felt to me like the map on page 338 is squished horizontally. Each map has star systems marked that don't appear on the other. The one on the inside cover shows some established warp routes, pictured as lightning bolts.

I used the inside cover map as my base and marked everything that was on it. I then tried to come up with the relative position of the remaining star systems that aren't on it. This only partially works, as there are a couple of major discrepancies between the two of them. For instance the 'Processional of the Damned' and the 'Frozen Sisters' are in opposite locations. Also, the Dolorium system is on the opposite side of Kain's Abyss. These things make it impossible to directly translate their locations.

Full-size map is 36" x 24".

i always thought the maps differed because of what the Rogue Trader rulebook refers to as "The 1000 Charts"?

Awesome map. Only thing I noticed, is that Magoros should be in Winterscale's Realm, probably near the Egarian Dominion.

Adobe illustrator CS5. I did a high-res scan of the inside cover of the RT book and used it as a guide.
