A good small town map

[elmuthalleth]

Where I can found a good map of a town of approx. 3000 people ?
The town is placed in low hills in a temperate area

Southwestern Veluna , 80 km S of Devarnish

Use maps.google.

Zoom into any small community, and use the satellite image. Screen capture, and add in details as needed using MSPaint.


Works great.

I will LEARN French just to read this.

So far, Ptolus is the only city product for RPG's produced that I have not yet seen so I cannot comment on it; from the previews I've seen, it outstrips anything done to date in terms of art. So I won't include it in the next bit.

Frankly, I want an explanation as to why no American RPG city product has ever produced anything half as beautiful or well-realized as those pictures. And you know what? Any explanation you give ain't good enough.

My own City of Melkot would fit the approximate range of 3000 to 4000 depending on how many people you say are living in each building.

Actually, I have the feeling that most Amercian city product authors never made the effort to look at a RL medieval or early Renaissance city map. The maps are most of the time that far off anything resembling reality that it's ridiculous. Yes, it's fantasy, but it looks like most authors just take other fantasy publications as inspiration; which is a pity.

They work nicely for me. If the links within the pictures don't work for you (they do for me), the one at the bottom of the post certainly does.
