My point is this - (1) they cut most of the maps (there are TWO whole
maps in the book); (2) they cut ALL the atmosphere building color
plates and (3) they cut 45 pages (not including the aforementioned
pages).

how do you have a location that is called (in the book) the "crown jewel
of the shadowrun universe"; have TEN years of stories, plots and play-
testing about that location and CUT the size of your sourcebook.

i'm not totally through the book - i do like what i have read so far. I really
like the section of "gangs of <insert area>" and i like the "index of
places
in the back. I was just looking for more. and i miss the maps and the color
plates - they added feel to the game.

my solution - photocopy the maps (from your own Old Seattle book) and keep
them with your New Seattle book. But DON'T photocopy someone else's
Old Seattle Maps.

later,
