if I want to put some of the action in a big modern city, is Defra the only option?

It is, unless you build your own city from scratch.

I tried that, but it ended up looking like a little colony. Maybe I'm missing something, but the choices don't seem to lend themselves to a city look. Any advice out there on building a big modern looking city?

Patience is all I suggest:

• I made a Cardassian City. 1, 2

Granted, I got a low review because someone didn't like that there had to be a map transfer to exit the skywalk.

NICE!! did you do that buy placing things on top of each other?

I'm playing your mission as we speak. That city you built is most impressive

When I played that mission i assumed it must have been a preexisting cryptic map. well done!

drren what name mission?
and wha object is the walkway?

Use a "clearing" map, then use BB 500' and make a square out of the area, paving.... sink them -2 y maybe -2.5 y. You can make a HUGE fricking city....

Ugh.
