The DM: I've tried everything I can think of or understand in my reading to fix a certain table I'm trying to add to my map files.

Vafrandir: Which page are you on and what is the goal?


The DM: With this, I'd like the blocks with Map B1 and Map B3 to overlap with East Spitsbergen, so that Lapland is snuggled in the middle.

A1: Greenland Sea A2: East Spitsbergen A3: Jotunheim
B1: Lofoten B2: Lapland B3: Yak'Margug

I can't seem to make it happen, however.

The DM: By inventing a fake heading, I was able to make this table look like I wanted:

A1: Greenland Sea A2: East Spitsbergen
B18: Iceland B1: Lofoten B2: Lapland
C1: North Sea A2: Baltic

The DM: However, this is a disaster.

A1: Greenland Sea A2: East
Spitsbergen
A3: Jotunheim
B1: Lofoten B2: Lapland B3: Yak'Margug
C1: North Sea C2: Baltic C3: Lithuania-
Poland
C4: Upper Volga

The DM: I can’t figure out what the column widths have to be to make these work. And if there was a better way to do it ...

Vafrandir: I'll take a look and see what I can figure out. Will each case be different or is there a pattern of overlap for each set of maps?

The DM: I’d like these to be consistent on some level. These are the three different forms of the table that will occur. The Lapland table (3rd shown) is goofy because the Lapland map sits at the point where the projection turns 60 degrees. The Lofoten map (2nd shown) will be far more common, as there is no projection turn. The East Spitsbergen map (top shown) only has two levels because there are no maps to the north (unreachable Arctic Ocean).
