Custom Cities

Wow. The M2 modding work is going to be HUGE! Good links.

Doing a quick Google search for city layouts has proved unfruitful. Of the limited number of cities that I know will be in the game, I can't find 11th century maps for them. I know they won't be very detailed but I can't find any of them dated before the 16th century.

Does anyone have a good link to Medieval city layouts? I think I'm going to have to go to the library and look at an actual book!

I have layouts for a number of Byz cities ... they are in the book, uh, The Oxford History of Byzantium, the plans there are for a number of cities, though I have a sneaking suspicion that by the beginning of M2 a number would be in other nation's hands.

Although, the book does give a good overview of the basic layout of a generic town, so it might be useful, if CA actually gives us easier-to-edit city layouts.

Thanks. I think I'll have to look to Oxford once again for good maps. I'm really interested in seeing how the cities are constructed.

blue lotus made some decent custom cities

BL has some custom buildings and perhaps some little different settlement plans. But it isn't even near to recreating historical cities.

if your library has atlas of medieval and modern history by william r. shepherd look at page 16 for plan of london circa 1300
