Does anyone of you have a good map of Seattle (and other Sprawl)

with district and other funny things

I could use it

many thanks

Although it was made for fourth edition, I'd recommend the Seattle 2072 book. It has a map of Seattle and its relation to surrounding territories, and an even larger map that shows the districts of the sprawl. It also goes into gangs of Seattle, and talks about what kind of stuff is in each neighborhood.

How about this:

IMO, the best ones out there:
Pacific Northwest -- around 6 megs
Seattle -- big, almost 19 megs
Downtown -- just one meg

They are very, very detailed - primo stuff.

this is indeed a very good book.  And it is mostly fluff, so a lot can still be used for 5th edition, maybe with some adaptations if you keep to the current timeline (which is what, 6 years in the future).

Seattle '72 is still about 90% related to 5e. Only small changes (mostly political) have happened in the last 5 years.
Its not like the city got reworked in those years and the few rules/systems in the nook can be converted to 5e with little fuss.

Its a good read to get a handle on the dynamics of a SR megaplex.

I'd love to get Seattle 2072 in a dead trees version -- for that sort of book I always find an actual book easier to use.  Sadly it now shows up on Amazon starting at over $70 ($US, up around $100 by the time I convert to $Canadian).  I just don't see dropping that much for a game supplement, so unless I get lucky and find it at a better price in a game store somewhere while travelling .... looks like PDF or nothing.

Any comments on how well the maps and layout for this one work for you in pdf?

[Tecumseh]

Beta, are you asking about Seattle 2072 in hardback vs. PDF?

I have both and use both. I like the PDF for being easily searchable, so if I need to find every reference to the Finnegan family it's easy to do so. The maps aren't extensive - just high-level district maps - but they're decent. You can get all the same information from the maps that fans have put together, like the ones FasterN8 posted. I especially like this one because it includes the old Lone Star security ratings from the Seattle Sourcebook. (I usually handwave it that Knight-Errant treats things the same way, unless I have reason to believe otherwise.)

And to Reaver's point, I would say that Seattle 2072 is 99% compatible with 5E. I suppose it should include the Ork Underground as a separate district now, but the vast majority of the rest is still applicable.

Try your local gaming store.

Us Canucks usually get screwed with online purchases.
I was able to get the book for $48cdn from my local store when it originally came out.

(And if you don't have a local store and are in Western Canada, drop me a PM and I will hook you up with MY game store: they ship all around Canada)

I’m in Ontario (don’t hate!).  I have a local store that has incredible amounts of old material for all sorts of gaming systems …. Except for SR.  All I can think of is that someone was a late convert to the game and cleared out all their 4th edition stock once they weren’t getting any more in?  We’re hoping to take a few road trips this Summer, and I like checking out gaming stores in other cities, so I’ll keep my fingers crossed that I’ll stumble on a treasure trove of books elsewhere.

I’m still working from the original Seattle sourcebook (in my 20+ year hiatus from the game, for some reason I kept that and Sprawl sites along with the never used 2nd edition rules – I’m glad I did as it was my teenager finding those and thinking they looked cool that pulled me back into the game).  It gives me something to work from, so lowers the urgency of getting the 2072 update to “I’d really like it” from “I need this to help my game make sense.”   I just hope that when I do get my paws on the 2072 update that I don’t find Black’s junkyard has disappeared – bizarrely it has become the source of one of the long running plot arcs in my game.

hate me

I was lucky enough to have a store who sold all the SR book it was unable to sold at a discount

so I bought all the the book not hard cover at 15$ or 20$ canadian dollar

Hate? No.

Envy?   Yes.

Strike Quebec City off my list of road trip destinations, since it has already been cleared out?  Yes :p

[farothel]

Sometimes you get lucky that way.  A friend of mine was able to get the all Spycraft books for 2 euro/hardcover and 1 euro/softcover.  About 20 books in total I think.  And I managed to get my hands on a mage book and some Alternity books (out of print for quite some time) that go for very much on ebay, just sitting at the back shelf of a local store.

[Reaver]

well remember with places like E-bay:

What they ask, is not what they get

Too many times I have seen crap on E-bay for stooopid prices, only to have the auction expire and no one bought the item.

one dumb schmuck listed the same item 5 times at the same price and got NO offers every time. Then he put it up a month later for a reasonable price and sold it.

And Beta, why would I hate on you for living in Ontario?

You Ontarians hate yourselves enough as it is!
