Peterson Jr. Number: 7201 [1-55560-111-1] Price: $15.00 Pages: 175 + 4 color + fold-out map Sections: Introduction, Welcome to Seattle, Facts At Your Fingertips, History, Downtown/Seattle, Renraku Arcology, Aztechnology Complex, Council Island, Bellevue, Tacoma, Everett, Renton, Auburn, Snohomish, Fort Lewis, Redmond, Puyallup, Government, Economy, Crime, Maps Overview: Not, as the FASA catalog says, loaded with maps. In fact, there are only 13 pages with maps in the back of the book, and all these are of the different districts in Seattle. (And guess what? They don’t even fit together!) The major part of the book is an overview of all the districts that make up the Seattle Metroplex, with histories, geographical descriptions, demographics, and so on given for each district as well as Seattle as a whole. The most important part of each district chapter consists of short descriptions of various buildings and locations—as you’ll all be familiar with from the city descriptions in the NAGEE. The last (shorter) chapters talk about how the ’plex is governed, organized and non-organized crime, and other things that are handy to know. As with most Shadowrun sourcebooks, there are lots of decker comments everywhere, so make of the text what you will. The book is almost essential to run a campaign in Seattle, because it gives a much better insight into the city that the short text in the back of the Shadowrun rules does. Rating: 7.1 Comment: "Maybe being a Seattle native biased me, but I found the Seattle Sourcebook very dry. It didn’t do much at all to give a feeling for the various neighborhoods. You’d do better to get a map and tour guide to modern Seattle and then improvise." Released: 1990 Author: Boy F.
