dan1234 04-28-06, 12:17 AM	Are you talking about how to set up an existing town? If so I find the second edition books to be very useful. They usually have detailed maps of towns and such... But if you mean creating a new one, then I think it's explained in the DM guide. But what I usually to I start with the map, and then I assign certain buildings to certain things (shops, inns) depending on the size you want. Then I create NPC that run those buildings. I establish a population (1000, or 200 or whatever). Then I decide there alignment, how the town is run (mayor or whatever), the "watch" if there is one. Then I go with organisations that have set up camp in town, and if there link to certain people in town. That's about how I do, probably more stuff that I am forgetting. But I usually decide population and size of town first...
