Well met, all!

Just checking on a few distance measures. Specifically, how far between . . .

1) Waterdeep x Luskan (both overland and sea)?
2) Luskan x Westgate
3) Waterdeep x Westgate
4) Luskan x Silverymoon
5) Waterdeep x Silverymoon

Approximations are fine (rounded to the nearest 5-10 miles)--I just want to get a good sense of how long travel would take between those points.

And I am asking about the 4e Realms, if that makes a difference. I know the continent's shifted a little.

Drat, I was more hoping someone would just float me an answer. Oh well!

Either The North or Volo's Guide to the North has a table with days to travel for this one at least. AFAIR, the Sword Coast North and the North were not much changed geographically by the Spellplague. I would therefore go with the 3E (high-res) map from WotC's site (if it's still there), print that part out and use the old string-and-scale-method we got taught in Geography along the major routes for the other distances you require. For travel times you just need to use the appropriate method of transport, but more accurately should probably also bring terrain into it.

What he said. I operate under the assumption that the map is only as accurate as you'd expect an early/mid medieval map of Europe to be, so use whatever rough measure you feel like.

you might also take it into consideration that even with that,it may be off a bit on the scale
