[QUOTE="Jupp, post: 1872679, member: 20804"] Well I only know of 1e/2e stuff, can't help with 3e things here: -"Lankhmar - City of Adventure" accessory has the whole town mapped out and has several interesting things about its citizens, city districts, politics, etc - "City Of Greyhawk" boxed set has very extensive information about the city and its surroundings. Definitely worth a read. Also the "Falconmaster" series of modules would be interesting as it plays in Greyhawk itself. - "Planescape - In the Cage" has everything you would need to know about Sigil. If you are out for the more bizarre kind of a city that would be a good choice - Gary Gygax "World Builder" book. It might not be the best thing he ever wrote but there is a vast amount, if not too much, of information in there to create a city. If you find pleasure in sifting through thousands of tables to create a world or city thats the book you need :) I think at least the first three products above should be available as PDFs. Not sure about World Builder.... The other way would be to go the local library and look out for books about city architecture in the 14th-18th century so you could get an impression where which district could be placed. Placing the beggars quarter right next to the nobles district would be a bit off perhaps :) [/QUOTE]
