Image:MapLargeLakes2.jpg|Large Lakes #2</gallery>HexPack: Lakes and Rivers contains a double-sided thick cardboard mapsheet with the ''River Valley'' and ''Large Lakes #2'' maps, plus a sheet of punch-out tiles with terrain features to modify the map layout. The enclosed 16-page booklet provides additional rules (expanding on those found in the introductory box set) and two scenarios with accompanying fiction set in the [[War of 3039]] plus an extra track set in [[2859]] for the ''[[Starterbook: Sword and Dragon]]'' scenario pack. (Notably, the scenarios in the subsequent HexPack continue the stories of the two scenarios found here, and there is another track for the same starterbook.)
