I live in Cincinnati Ohio, and I want you to pick Cincy for some reason. Quick run down of what's actually here, GE aircraft engines, as I recall one of 2 locations that gets to work on things like stealth bombers and such. P&G which does tons of business in home goods and such. Here in Cincy when you buy things like laundry detergent you get to choose between competing P&G brands, and that's in our world, without megacorporations running things. Dayton's a short trip up I-75 and as was mentioned before Wright-Patterson airforce base is there, and, again going just from memory, it's one of the largest air force bases in the US. Ohio stays UCAS so there's a good chance Wright-Patt would be expanded. When I ran a few runs in Cincy for my group I played it that Cincy had merged with Dayton and Northern Kentucky, not a very dense metroplex, but one that made sense, especially Cincy/N KY. I turned Covington into a slum which made things interesting because downtown Cincy was somewhat higher class and you could look into the slums from across the river.

That being said, I also like the idea of Vancouver. Mainly because no matter what happens it's unlikely for a city to become a smoking hole in the ground. More than likely there's going to be rubble, collapsed buildings maybe, and survivors. It'd be fun to have a post-apacolyptic city near to Seattle since I think most games at least have something to do with Seattle.

In all honesty, it isn't one city but more and more becomeing something akin to a metroplex. The Harrisburg-York-Lancaster area in Pennsylvania

Players: no peeking. This means you, Phaeton!

On a bit of an SoE theme (guess whose copy arrived this morning?) I can reccomend the rapid depopulation of Nottingham UK (well, probably Midsprawl- you can expect it to combine with Leicester and Derby given time) or The Hague UNL- neither seem to serve a useful purpose save for providing me with sofas to sleep on and cats to terrorise. Both also have a decent excuse for ickiness (QMC in Nottingham, Hague backing onto Europort).

Yeah, as I recall I had most of the local stuff, GE, P&G, and Kroger get rolled into one local corp that was a subsidiary of Ares. So there was lots of pro-Ares things happening. Like bulldozing parks and such to build weapons plants. I was really taking advantage of the nicer areas of present Cincy and tearing them up. I almost forgot, we've got riverboat gambling in the area and Newport used to be run by the mafia, so its not too terrible a stretch to have the mafia back running things. I think I had Renraku building underground facilities beneath some of the historical villages that surround Cincy. It was a good time.
