WFRP Worldbuilding

If you look in Sigmar's Heirs there's some useful information on each of the cities and towns. Other than that, your map seems barebones; given that the town is on a river, maybe it's got fishing as a source of commerce? There's the apparent trading post up top, as well.

The fact that the town is walled in definitely means they see - or at one point saw - regular danger from the north-ish. A noble might do that, but I'm unsure he'd spend resources on doing the whole town...could be an interesting point in history.

There's no real town square or anything like that, at least nothing sizable. A couple buildings could be temples. If this place is war torn then everything outside the walls is burned and wrecked, I would think.

There could be further settlement on the other side of the river, but maybe it's not the noble's land, and he offered no protection there?

Now that I think on it, this could likely be a burgeoning trading town. They likely produce something needed here - textiles, pottery, something useful. I see no indications of a mine or the like, so probably nothing to do with ores or fashioning weapons or armor. I would think the land is great for manufacturing something lucrative though.

Impeccable taste

The mine could be on an island just off the port there. Maybe it's on the coast of a lake? Or the river is wide enough to have a little island thing in the middle

For population you could just count the houses and throw 1~3 families in them

So the walled off section is interesting because they aren't necessarily more secure since they are still attached to the outside wall.

Maybe that inner wall was made to fight against uppity peasants more than outside enemies?

Or maybe the wall there is just thicker and with more defenses so they are still more defended.

But there's nothing in the town that would imply they work with it at all. No foundry, no smithy, not much of anything.

I do like the idea that there is something across the river, but that's not what the map is depicting, and it should ideally be the focus.

Important detail; rivers flood. No one smart, or with money, lives where it floods. Poor people live closer to the river; you can see fishing shacks lining the inner harbor. IMO, the rich wouldn't want to live near the gates either, due to whatever terror the walls were built to protect against. If the walled in buildings are not nobles (or not exclusively), they might be burghers or the like who hit it big; or perhaps a group/guild of them forming a well protected consortium.

There is something of a town square nearer the river, with three buildings facing ot. I feel the larger one could be an inn or tavern.

I'd say something at the crossroads of some large cities, a waystop and trading town. There isn't anything that signifies the land is valuable, but that might be due to the simplicity of the artist's design.

I'd Beastmen rampage through I'd say most everything outside the fortified area should be fucked

Sup warhammer anon.

What you want is the supplement Scenic Dunnsmouth.

It was published for Lamentations of the Flame princess but it is system agnostic.

It is brilliant. There should be a copy in the trove somewhere or you can get it on drivethrough.

Sounds excellent, I'll check it out. Thanks amigo.

Isn't the River Reik in Middenland? That would probably be an important enough river to place your town on.

Confirmed, Dunnsmouth is dank

Related question, are there maps of the actual towns that are canon? I know I've seen some amazing ones of Altdorf and Erengrad and the like, but I wonder if the smaller ones exist.

I think a large portion of maps are fan made honestly...Black Industries didn't have much time to pump out official ones

A - Rich assholes who kept relatively safe and locked everyone else out. Probably has stores of food and some servants.
B - Specifically the richest assholest douches. I would assume an expansive cellar and probably a getaway tunnel.
C - Lives right next to rich assholes, and up against the wall. Assuming town guard, something like that. Maybe the building to the left.
D - Also maybe town guard. Bigger buildings = barracks maybe.
E - Church maybe? dunno nothing here is really that ostentatious enough to be a church imo. Maybe a small chapel. The big round clearing means this place is special.
F - Extra big chimney, loves big dicks. Shack next to it, this could be a smithy.
G - Shacks for poor people. May or may not be fishermen. Likely houses refugees from the war.
H - Has a neat fuckin courtyard. Must be something cool.
I - Big place with a big connecting hallway. I'd presume some governance building.
J - The tax man. Totally.
K - The town hall. Biggest building around.
L - The shape leads me to believe it would have many rooms - making it the inn.
M - Fishery, it's right on the water. The southeast corner looks like it would open up to the river.
N - Tavern. Fairly central, shape leads me to think bar in one part, kitchen in the other.
O - A large shop or something. It looks inviting, with its atrium and driveway.
P - Houses
Q - Shops
R - Warehouse
The rest - fuck if I know
