Hi all,
I am working on a City Template that will hopefully allow me to populate my home made world with a wide array of cities. It also has spaces for relevant information that can help in building said city. What do you all think? How would you modify it?
To give credit where credit is due, I used CityWorks, by Fantasy Flight Games, heavily as a research tool when getting this together.
Here it is:
