Detroit definately would make for a great setting. I recently saw somewhere a series of Photos of the desolation there, and the yougner folks who are trying to rebuild it, but in a much more green-friendly way.

I'm surprised nobody's playing in my old home town.  I mean, Cleveland's got a Hellmouth and everything...  ::)

    I just started a game set in 1984 Miami. The players are a white court vp who is a small time club owners and a Russian sorcerer / dealer. they are trying to navigate red court cocaine cowboys, white court who controls the traditional vice markets and an old money Dionysian (summer fey) cult who are clashing to see who runs the city.

They are still trying to recover their money laundering attorney (who has the numbered accounts) from the red court

its been fun so far.

 Also the sound track I have running the the back ground is a lot of fun

I think Chattanooga would make for a fun city. Lots of ghost stories about the area, several major Civil War battles in the area and a really stark poor/rich contrast to the city.

Thats a pretty cool idea there, but do Crockett and Tubbs make an appearance?

Not yet but it is on the docket. I'll probably introduced them as some slick suppliers with a cigar boat and let the PC figure out that they are cops on there own.

Dependign on how young the players are (i.e. have they ever even seen the series?) that could take awhile to figure out...8)

Oh, yeah, that's the movie with Jamie Foxx and Colin Ferrell, right?
