I've stumbled on this amazing pic on Deviantart (see the image's description for full credit and links). It helps visualising how the IE / ME / other TW maps have gone through some serious distortions for gameplay reasons: the Old World is much more dense in terms of factions than Lustria for instance, so it'd be a pity to present it as the minor landmass it actually is. Historical fans will remember than Rome 2's main map also featured a downsized Arabic peninsula.

It's a well crafted map, thanks for sharing it and props to the artist.
The distortion is mostly to help provide visualization for the more dense areas, although I do agree the squashing of fantasy-americas and fantasy-africa is sad.

The skaven uses an absurd number of grabbling hooks and pulled it back down to the ocean floor. /s

Nippon island is miss in the game immortal empire map.

Which to be honest is an odd decision since we're able to sail around the world in warhammer 3.

What an amazing map. Not only it must have required so much research work, but it's hand-made - a rare quality in the digital age.

Cartography is an utterly patrician tier profession, thanks for posting.
Beautiful work from this artist.

I don't think there actually is a cartography correct map, since its pretty much a given all maps aren't 100% representative, since their based on the maps of the people in universe and Warhammer Fantasy isn't yet to the accurate scale and fine detail shape/sizes maps.
