Wow, for one, I am certainly impressed by this, but it's quite funny how you label one area: 'Snowy Land'

Demo pathway is wrong. As are quite a few other things. Not really a very reliable fanmap at all, not that many fanmaps are. Anyway, other problems with the map: Town names are wrong, towns on there that don't exist in game, some towns/cities missing, that picture is not of the throat of the world, not all holds correctly identified, seperated by lines, some regions colour-coded incorrectly, outline slightly off, etc.

Ummm,
I think the picture for the throat of the world is actually Bleak Falls Barrow which is between Riverwood and Todd's dragon fight. It's across the river and up the mountain from Riverwood and the Throat. Todd actually turns around and looks up at the Throat across the valley on his way to Bleak Falls Barrow. Also, I guess we could call the demo start 'Helgen' if that isn't too spoilerish.

You could add additional info, such as having the Thieves Guild HQ in Riften, the Companions guild HQ in Whiterun, and the College of Winterhold (mages guild) in Winterhold, since those are the likeliest places to begin the quest chains for those factions.

I've also heard that a Dark Brotherhood door was seen by quite a few in the hands-on play, even on limited time, so there's at least one DB location near the starting area.

That's why I need your help to create a very good speculation map ;) But I think the demo pathway is fairly right. Todd obviously skipped the exit from the throat of the world to the mammoth bit.

Also, I guess we could call the demo start 'Helgen' if that isn't too spoilerish.


Note the arrow. It isn't actually pointing to the highest peak, Bleak Falls Barrow stands on one of the 'lesser' peaks of The Throat of The World ;)

Thank you for your help :) Will try to get at it right away :D

This looks awesome, Does it seem to you guys that the locations of cities seem very far away from each other and may take a long time to commute, this is going to be awesome if they are :)

Whiterun and Windhelm are the closest. I like how all the cities are pretty far apart too.

dunstead grove = http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/155/marthalp.jpg/ as seen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xwboyafbwc#t=04m52s it is one of the 9 main citys but not one of the major 5 ,it is believed to possibly be linked with argonian forces from morrowind and/or alied settlement to solitude who rivals the colledge of winterhold

Falkreat is not a major city, and I think that Markarth is a major city, but in the world cell, but I really don`t know this.

Nice map, I like the photos pointing to various areas.
According to the demo, The Throat of the World is just East-SE of Riverwood.
But I have seen maps where it is shown to be more North of Riverwood.

Speculate with the official map, instead.

its wrong for us to do this ...
we are setting ourselves up for let downs, just like was felt @ Oblivions release, we had preset ideas of what to expect ... mainly from news articles (gameinformer and such) then @ time of release it was NOTHING like what we had immagined ... even things we were SURE of and had confirmation on simply were different then the actual reality of what we took home.

But Todd crosses the river to get to it, so shouldn't it be north of Riverwood across the river? Riverwood being on the south bank with the Throat of the World and Bleak Falls Barrow being opposite that to the North. rf: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imH4Ncoe9Gs at 4:50
