- In which I cover 4 (10?) different adventure locations and adventures that you can add in to a hexcrawl, urban campaign, or run as one-shots! They're all great and PWYW - throw them a couple dollars, as these definitely deserve it!

Music from a bunch of great video games (A, LotR2, 7K2:TFW, LoM, G:DL, FFV, WoW, and KK6:THIH)
If you haven't shown it off before, you should show Four Tower Bridge on one of these videos. It's a starter town. I've seen it on reddit, not sure if it's available elsewhere.
I'll have to check it out! Thanks for the suggestion!
Many moons ago--back the day, 1984 to 1986--I ran a city based campaign. I was using Fantasy Hero as the system, and a small city that was part of an early setting for DnD called Midkemia. I ignored the rest of the setting, but the city was useful. Originally intended to just fill out the life of the city, I used a couple books that were basically small urban fantasy locations and/or just NPCs. Usually, the NPC and their place of business, if any. The book reminds me of several of the things in that last publication you reviewed here (which i WILL be purchasing), complete with several business on a bridge. The books were rpg aids called Citybooks. The idea was, the PCs have to go to (say, for example) a weapon smith for a new axe, why not make the weaponsmith himself a locus of interesting happenings. The NPCs from city book were scattered throughout the small walled city, and the PCs started to get to know them right away. I had grand plans for the primary plot lines of the campaign itself, such as royal betrayal, murder most foul, etc. That stuff was cool, but the NPCs and "innocuous" city locations of the Citybook soon stole the players' attention. I have always wanted to return to that feeling: the world itself holds the attention of the players much better than any of my grand plans. Each NPC in the Citybook includes plot hooks unique to them, and each book had overriding plot seeds that involved several or most of the NPCs. You would love it, and you owe it to yourself to look these up. There are several such books, although back then I only had a couple. I bet you can still find them online. Citybooks, check em out.
That sounds amazing!! Thank you for the heads-up; I will definitely be checking that out!
Another great video. There is a typo in the description. You put 'cove' not 'cover'.
Oh thanks! I'll fix that up!
Who is the artist of Met in the City? I LOVE isometric maps
I think it's Simon Carryer - at least Simon Carryer Games is the publisher on DTRPG.

This is great. Thanks
You're welcome!
I absolutely need Ill Met in the City. Also, a lot of the things in it are homages to the Fafhrd & the Grey Mouser series. The title is taken from the story Ill Met in Lahnkmar, I believe That Bastard Chromas is from a line in the same story (with the name Krovas instead) as well.
Lot of good stuff to grab and go. I like the locations always helpful to have those resources
Agreed - I prefer those small, bite-sized locations to big modules and campaigns. So much easier to adapt and use.
Like and subscribed. We have a very long-running campaign, so it's always nice to see someone creating content. Good luck!
Thank you!
That lords of magic ost man it's so good, great video too 😀 👌
Yeah, LoM had that killer soundtrack - especially Order! Thanks!
Cool stuff. That Ill Met in the City looks especially good.
Yeah, it's great! And the creator has some other awesome things on DTRPG - I'll be highlighting those in the next few days.
Thanks for the resources
My pleasure!
