The overland map is the aerial view of the whole game territory. In the first two games of the series, this is the land of Calradia, in With Fire & Sword, it is Eastern Europe. On the overland map, you can see your party represented as a small walking man if you do not have a horse, or a mounted man if you are riding a horse. If you are a noble or vassal, your figure will also be carrying your banner. You may also see the representation of any other party within your line of sight as governed by your Spotting skill.
