Just about anything is fine, short of very rocky, mountainous terrain and dense
forests. Hills, boulders, and copses (is that correct pluralization?) of trees
are all fine.

The city is large, although I haven't built any of it yet, so I am more than
willing to use other people's buildings in any city scenes. I hope to get some
shops and buildings made by Brickfest, but we'll see if I have time.

Keep the look medieval (half timber buildings, stone buildings, an occasional
brick or stucco building, etc.) and I don't think I'll have a problem with it.
