Ramelin’s Sindh Desert, 8 miles per hex v3

I hesitate to call this version 3, as the only differences between this and the previous version were the title, the legend, and a slightly tighter crop. In all other respects, the two versions were identical. However, this was the version Jose shared to DeviantArt, so for the sake of completeness, here it is.

At this time, Jose had been creating a lot of more tightly focused maps, and this one fit right in. While version 2 contained all of Kavkaz and the north of the Adri Varma Plateau, this one was cropped precisely at the narrowest point between the northeastern spur of the Black Mountains and the Adri Varma — in other words, it concentrated wholly on the Great Waste region.
