Resources to Consider

I was able to find a list of different images of Otosan Uchi for different time frames, their districts and what not. Its a good basis for the overall map as well as major structures within the city. My one recommendation I would like to tell everyone is that if we start with a destroyed city, we can almost start with a generally blank slate. We have several tools at our disposal, first and foremost the walls of Otosan Uchi are alive and filled with POWERFUL kami. It's not a stretch of the imagination that the walls could have morphed and repaired themselves in unpredictable ways after the destruction of the city, so we could use that as some leniency in the overall map design, also as a way to deter players from planning on looking for specific structures all the time which would give newer players less of a disadvantage (those structures could have moved or just be completely destroyed). Also if we get some tainty goodness involved, even more map crafting shenanigans can be involved.

I'm pretty sure if the city is in ruins because of Earthquake that it's not going to be an exact match to the map in any book. The map gives us a good baseline to work from. Moreover, the Atlas (and presumably the box set) give a good description of what was there beforehand.

These are the best I can find online.  Atlas of Rokugan has a better map but I don't have it in electronic format.  I'll probably pick up the PDF of Otosan Uchi box set later which will also have a map but that's going to have to wait for finances a it.

When I asked people aboard, I asked Tim to work on the Economics System, and for Ressler to work on a new card-draw system. He and Travis kind of jumped on the Economic system thing without prompting, which is fine. Their notes are all accessible, and there's no reason it should fall on just one (or two) people.
