Wow...that was my first reaction when I saw these maps. I always wondered when the "real" distances and topography of the world was, and this really brings Azeroth to life for me. Thank you for your work on this! Looking forward to seeing it change over time.
Anyone besides me see the Horde symbol above Orgrimmar to the left of the Whispering Reef?
Bogpaddle is spelled "Bograddle" on the first map.
Yes, it's been specifically designed this way by the goblins, probably to placate the Horde leadership.
