Each hex displays one point of interest. Placing another marker on that hex replaces the existing marker.

A marker on an empty hex cannot be placed. The editor asks you to place a tile first.

Available markers

The palette includes Village, Town, City/Metropolis, Natural Landmark, Hermit's Abode, Temple, Holy Shrine, Ancient Dolmens, Barrow Mounds, Fortified Keep, Small Tower, Cave Formation, Monster Nest, Barbarian Camp, and Ravine.

Name a marker

Select Toponyms, choose Point, then click the marked hex. Select the POI when the item chooser appears.

Edit its existing name and appearance in the label panel. Changes preview immediately and save after two seconds.

Delete name keeps the marker. See Point label controls.

Remove a marker

  1. Select POI Tool.
  2. Choose Remove POI in the palette.
  3. Click the marked hex.

Remove POI keeps the terrain. Eraser removes both the terrain and its marker.
