Of Maps And Scale

By Darth Fanboy, in Rogue Trader

The scale on 2D maps of 3D space is going to be all over the place inherently, but the likes of the Calixis map at least gives a general idea of scale by being a sector. Is there any indication anywhere of whether the Koronus expanse map is roughly in scale with it, or whether it covers a larger (or possibly smaller) area?

Hard to say, exactly. The map in the Rogue Trader book (from memory, I don't have it on me) shows the Koronus expanse as a relatively adjacent cube of space of similar size to the Calixis Sector. So yes, I'd say they're of similar size - though the majority of the Koronus expanse is unmapped and unknown.

That said, I think there's enough leeway within the background to make it much larger or smaller, if you wish, for the sake of an ongoing campaign.
