City creation: New York City part 2

Aug 04, 2008 09:01

This is part 2 of the City creation for NYC. It has the locations and Npc's for each. This is about 95% done and will be tweaked a bit over the next few days.

Here is part 1 if you missed it.

Looks good to me. I like that Yankee Stadium is neutral ground - nice touch.

I wonder, you mention the Black Court has interests here; what are their interests?

Yeah that was my friend Dawn's thought. I really liked it. I haven't thought about how it is going to work yet though.
One of the things that I keep wondering is that I don't know if everything should be defined. Some of it can come up later when we are playing. I know the Black Court is in the city, but not what their interests are. They are the smallest court (except maybe the Jade which we don't know much of anything about)and for the most part seem to focus on feeding and the war. So, that coulc be it. I have the same thought about the Denarians. I know they are in NYC, but we did not really talk about them.

Looks very interesting. Have not yet seen the rules for city creation, but was wondering if some of the areas were going to be further detailed and expanded. Cleopatra's Needle in Central Park could be more than just an obelisk...

Well, the thing I really like about this is that it is really just a launching point for the game. You can still go through parts of the city and do more with them on your own. Or expand them while you are playing. There is so much you can do with NYC it isn't funny.

Doesn't the Guggenheim essential have one long ramp from top to the bottom? What a neat place to put the Traveling Art Exhibit of Doom. Almost as cool as the Egyptian Temple in the Met.

If the PC's can't be chased down the ramp by an ferocious Objet d'Art...

(okay..so that's more than a little cheesy)

Cheesy is ok. :) There is so much you can do in NYC. Once I start running the game, I will defintely start thinking about the more odd places.
