port augusta uber alles

[adelaidesean]

It's easy to accuse Sydney and Melbourne of thinking Australia revolves around them.

They have nothing on Port Augusta.



Capital of "Adelaide"! Now that's forward thinking.

(Scanned from a tourist map I picked up over the weekend. Had a great time there, by the way. Thanks to everyone for dropping in to say hi.)

lol ... though with port agutta the only place actually marked on the map, it's a very special map indeed =)

if only i could write dialogue. there's bound to be a book in there somewhere.

certainly, many a novel has begun with less ...

There was a not dissimilar map of Australia in a Call of Cthulhu supplement, Terror Australis. From memory, Perth had been relocated either to Geraldton or Bunbury, and Sydney was missing completely.

I'm told the authors were Melbournian.

lol. i remember that supplement.

t'was not the craziest 'official' rpg publication to rewrite australian geography.
