Maps
The Magonomia core rulebook has a map that's designed as an orientation, but isn't very detailed. If you're interested in historical detail and accuracy, you'll almost certainly need supplemental maps from the internet.
- UK Historical Maps from the Perry-Castanada Library , University of Texas (public domain)
- The England in the Wars of the Roses map is especially useful if you ignore the battle sites and just look at the major towns, cities, and rivers.
