town and city help

I need a book or pdf of generic cities and towns. I have the JG Villages I & II which are great, but they really are villages. I need something with larger population capacity.

I have often used the 3d4+6 method in 3.5. Thats what I will most likely use in C&C.

How does everybody roll attributes? Do you stick to the 3d6 or do you deviate?

In further review, I am totally hooked. C&C is exactly what I have been looking for.

I would like to add that THE ART ROCKS!!!!! Well done Mr. Thorne/Bradley and crew.

Hello to all,

I am thinking about trying C&C and was wondering is the info in the Boxed set the same as the books or is it a bit watered down? It seems like a screamin' deal to just buy the boxed set.

Thanks
