The Gloranthan Cosmos (2008)

Art by Bernard Bittler, text by Greg Stafford
Published 23 Feb 2008

This diagram was originally done by Multisim, the former publisher of Hero Wars and many, many other fine games, in French (and German). I’m not sure who drew it, or where it appeared, but I have always loved it for its visual impact.

Glorantha

Accurate? Of course it is representative, and so VERY accurate. One note: the Red moon is too high. Otherwise, I think this is perfect. I am very pleased to present this work from a great artist and a great publisher.

The picture was originally published in Multisim’s magazine Casus Belli #1.
