Urban Adventures: The Great City Campaign Setting (OGL) PDF
0one Games
Based on their acclaimed The Great City Blueprints Series, 0one Games introduces an ambitious and detailed look at the locations behind the maps.
This sourcebook portrays a struggling mercantile colony ruled by the incompetent son of a brutal emperor—a city whose earliest citizens proudly trace their history back for thousands of years, but now struggle against social and political oppression; a city where a brooding underbelly of resistance fighters, and crime syndicates, and a proud but disillusioned military all wait for their lord to fail. It is a city where night cloaks the deviant works of social outcasts, mad alchemists, and corpse robbers.
The Great City is rife with excitement, intrigue and adventure; dare your characters make it their home?
This book contains the detailed description of the six wards of the Great City, including most relevant NPCs, adventure locations, encounters and more.
- A large, gorgeous two-page map of the city is included, with detailed key.
- Within each chapter you'll find a full-page map detailing the ward.
- "The Cost of Freedom," a short introductory adventure by Tim Hitchcock, is provided for a fresh start of your Great City campaign.
- A chapter with unique creatures of the Great City provides you with some foes to throw at your group.
- A separate chapter with 3.5 statblocks for each NPC complete the book.

A beautifully-crafted city. Each and every person, who enjoyed the "Guide to Korvosa" or the CotCT should a least give the setting and "The Road to Revolution" a try - the Arc may well surpass CotCT, depending on the higher-level adventures to come.
There are some minor typos, but that is the only negative thing I can say about this book.
Over the past few years, 0one Games has been regaling us with a series of exceptional city maps, laying out in minute detail The Great City. It's just been crying out for information about who lives there, what's going on and even some adventures to await visiting characters - and here at last is a campaign setting worthy of those map!
You get detailed descriptions of each Ward including notable NPCs, locations and adventure ideas, plus a full-blown adventure for 1st-level characters.
Overall, this product really brings The Great City to life, while providing enough about the layout that it should not pose a problem if you do not have the earlier maps. You'll probably want to get them if you decide to spend much time here - and after reading this, I for one want to do so! Apart from a few niggling mis-spellings that a good proof-read should have caught, presentation is good with clear maps which are an advance visually on those in the previous maps, yet of course fully-compatible with them. Definately recommended to anyone who likes city-based adventures, or whose campaign needs a well-designed city as a base or place to visit.

#1 on RPG now with a bullet. Wow. When I wrote the Great City's Temple Ward I thought maybe five people would see it. I'm so incredibly glad to be so incredibly wrong. :) Go Team!
Writers: Lou Agresta, Rone "The Jade" Barton, Tim Hitchcock, John E. "Zherog" Ling Jr., Greg Oppedisano and Brendan Victorson.

Is there any chance this is going to see a print version? I love the Blueprints you guys do, but I also enjoy having nicely bound books to put on my shelves, particularly those with a campaign setting. it just makse it easier for me to referance and use at the table. If not, I suppose I could always go to a staples and get them to print one out and bind it for me, it would just be nice to have an official version.

Awesome! yet another purchase to make with my next paycheck. At any rate, thanks for the high quality products. and this in particular is great since I was planning to make the Great City the central port of my new Homebrew.
