Cape City, a neverending cyberpunk project

I know. Got the old ICE Cyberspace rules and have always wanted to play. Have only ever made up some characters...never played.

Thanks for the rep.

And yes there is a reason for the "ruler straight border". In the city fluff, the place is built in the bayou, on land that due to a clerical error back in the day did not get handed over with the Louisiana land deal, creating a tiny little free state, but not worth anything since it was without natural resources and/or wealth. Later though it came to during the Civil War as a neutral port (originally owned by a french family, thus having a somewhat protected status). So the birth of the city was very organic, chaotic structure etc. Later when land was reclaimed more structure and layout was enforced. Over the years the US fenced off the land in order to keep illegal immigration down, (majority of the population are Caribbean Islanders) The result was that the city expanded all the way up to the then concrete fence, forcing US authorities to construct a second fence with no mans-land between.

Now obviously not all of the fluff, but the gist of it. I was looking at places like Macau, Monaco and Kowloon Walled City when creating this. Hope that explains something. But yes its a beast of a file in BMP format
Btw rough calculations give the entire city the dimensions of approx 10miles by 5 miles, so its not a very big place.

Now only if I'd known then what I know now about digital graphic programs.
