I recently bought a PDF version of this book from RPGnow.com, In this book it concistently reffers to a colour map I cant find anywhere in the book. For example, "Location #44 on the color map. The Walking Statue is AC1, MV 4, has 18 HD..." Is this a map from another product, 'Waterdeep and the North' perhaps? Or does anyone whith a hard coppy of tyhe book know whether it should have come with it. I'm ratehr anoyed about this, while it is possible to get a map of waterdeep on the internet I would rather like to know where the things mentioned in the book actualy are

The book itself, at least the hard copy, has a map with it.

At a quick look, the items from VGtW do also corispond to the map in "Waterdeep and the North"(TSR 9213)

There is also mention of useing certain maps from the "City Systems" Boxed set

Hmmm, thanks for the input. Do you think theres any point in contacting RPGnow and pointing out that this book should have contained such a map? It seems to me if thay had that map, they would have sent it to me and so, contacting them is unlikly to get me a coppy of it. So, any where else i can get a similar map, spesificaly one that has the numbers referd to on it? Perhaps somone with the book could transfer those numbers on the map to any old map on the interne please?. (I know asking somone to waste their time for my benefit is an awfull lot to ask and i doubt anyone will, but i thought it was at least worth asking.)

Grin, only thing I can say is try to find the hard copy, with the map, on ebay, or nobleknight.com, or dragonstrove, or any other out of print site......

Hmm, that did sound a little on the presumtious side. Anyhoo, thanks Kuje31, anyone know any more sites for out of print books? (uk ones if possible, but heck, its all good)

See here (http://boards1.wizards.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=267037) for out-of-print sources. I'd probably get the City of Splendors boxed set instead (or as well), whose map is bigger and nicer though it uses a different key -- a conversion is included.
