In my quest to find quick reference stuff for my rather freeform Shadowrun campaign, I stumbled across fexes.de's magnificent 2050 maps.
Despite being gorgeous, they're not really the easiest to find information in, due to their limited palette.
So I thought "why not add colour-coded icons"?
Then I thought "might as well just add a colour filter to the districts".
After a couple of tries, I thought "Alright, what about individual district maps, colour-coded and fully iconized, with LS security ratings next to the hood names"?
And that's exactly where I'm standing now.

Would something like the following be of interest to share?

Fort Lewis map, circa 2050
Fort Lewis overview and map legend

It is still missing the reference index / legend. I'm keeping the original numbering, so that cross-district runs can reference to it without hiccups.

Love it. Fexes' maps are very detailed, but they do lack a bit of lucidity.

OK, I think Fort Lewis is done.
I edited the original post to include an updated version of the map, with security rating icons instead of drab letters, and another link to the map legend and district overview.

Suggestions? Thoughts?

Next up: Puyallup.
