RPG Resources of the Day: 101 Fantasy City, Town and Village Maps

Posted on Posted in Uncategorized

I’m sure there are thousands of fantasy maps posted on-line. Below are links to over 101 fantasy cities and towns.  It can be useful to see such a large and varied set of examples to help you design your map. While looking at these, you may want to borrow part of a city or town’s layout, a map’s color scheme, or some other feature of a map.

If you’re only using a map for personal use, you can just doctor the map in an image editor (like the free GIMP or Inkscape or the expensive Adobe products) or even on paper once it is printed for use in your game and campaign world.
