My point is this: I'm a map freak, and I'm a get-it-right freak. I
downloaded a sattelite image of downtown Seattle with the purpose of taking
my handy art program and faking in the various "improvements" made by the
asembled megacorps, notably the various towers and pyramids. This is
complicated by the fact that I still haven't got a handle on where in the
#$(& the Arc's fat footprint is. I can't find my 1st ed SR for the map. I
was HOPING that along with the recycled AAA maps, FASA could have stretched
their art budget to give a little downtown sketch map so that 'runners
commuting between the Arc and the Pyramid would know the hazards while they
play dodgem cars with Lonestar, and so the EGM could trip them via the
map. --Anders
