Now this is THE city supplement to buy.

The streets are named, the map is very well setup for modding or using as-is, and just so much more.

The only thing I didn't care for was in the very center on each district, the GM had to use a geomorph from the book. (The idea was to make each city unique, which was not really needed.)

Having said that, it's still a 5+ item. In the second edition they added the sewer maps which just pushed it over the top for great that much more. (And all the Skaven, err... "Ratkin" scraps.)

(IMO) The best part? Most younger gamers have no experience with the old stuff, so you can just mangle it as you wish without breaking any of their sacred cows.

Lord knows this city had multiple names in multiple systems for me: D&D, RoleMaster, Palladium Fantasy... the game might have changed, but same city remained. The players actually dug it.

When they got tired of it, the old Chaosium Thieves' World Box set city Sanctuary worked well too. (But last time I looked, that was a bit more expensive.)
