This guide is so so for generating settlements. It's very unrelaistic if ones wants to use it for European settlements of the Middle Ages or Renaissance. It's nicely creative and if ones does not care about realism at all could be used well to generate distinct settlements on the fly. I wanted to give it four starts but just could not bring myself to do so.

The best thing about this product is the random name generator for taverns on pages 53 to 56. -even if I payed for this product I would be happen to have done it for it's tavern name generator. It woulkd taken any gamemaster a week or more to create such a table and then not likely to be as good as the one in this product.

Great product, hard to believe you could not sell it. Likely not because they did not like it, but because they could not use it as part of a normal themed issue.

Very well written and thought out guide. Is good for Dungeon and Dragons style games. I gave it 4 rather than 5 stars because it could have been better. The site of the domain is not treated well. The location of the castle is also almost not there, e.g. is it sited on a river or road or both? There are several obvious questions like this that should have been answered and given rules for each case.

Excellent basic rules set that can be used and expanded by the gamemaster or expanded by buying more products. System is a combination of the original Runequest and King Arthur Pendragon. For a dollar it's a can't go wrong purchase.
