OK, jim, my first question, if you know it, is how is it set up? If I remember the original writeup sent to writers, each assignment was a different neighborhood of a big city with a dock, and each business, house, or whatever needed at least one adventure hook, the more you linked together the better. Do you know if they kept this concept or changed it somehow?

How about stats and open game content? Originally I remember we weren't to actually DO any stat blocks, how was that handled? I know your review copy didn't come in yet, but if you recall if this is the way they went I'd like to know!

i have no idea how doug handled the "finishes"

i know what the original plan was, but i have yet to see an open copy

the story set up of the city was very smart, and explained why there were NUMEROUS races in the city, but we didn't got the 'all monster from the SRD route"

let me see if mike won't send me a copy and i'll do my best to break it down

although doug sun should really be here talking about the book himself

I wish they would post some kind of preview or something. At least with Warlords, they put up the website.

I'd love to see some free content to get me motivated to buy it.

Got It!

Yes, it exists. I received my copy of WLC from Noble Knight Games (great seller, by the way). On first glance, it looks very cool. If you like WLD, you will probably like this.

What kind of tone/theme does it have?

How does the city feel like?

WARNING: Travel Advisory from the Wizard Council of Alderac! At this time the World's Largest City has been declared unsafe for standard tourism! Following in the rather large footsteps of the World's Largest Dungeon, this d20 supplement presents a vast cityscape covering16 full-color maps with plenty of adventure hooks to keep your players occupied for a whole campaign!

Enter a city of diversity, a city of depth, a city of intrigue…a city of danger!

Leaving the dungeon to take a well-earned rest in the city has never felt like this before…you thought you had it hard dealing with nasty creatures living in the dark? Wait until you encounter their ‘civilized’ counterparts in these busy streets!

It’s the city your players might never want to leave – or maybe they’ll just be lost forever in its labyrinthine web of alleyways, shops and sewers.

In The World’s Largest City, you’ll find:

Ø Hundreds of NPCs inhabiting detailed locations across a dozen massive districts!

Ø Encounters, conflicts and adventure hooks that can lead to thousands of hours of game play!

Ø Over 700 pages of fantasy setting and source material!

Ø 16 poster-sized maps – 80” x 64” when fully assembled!

P.S. Can a moderator combine these threads or something? EDIT: THANK YOU
