Anyone know of a good source for 'modern' city battle maps?
I've built a couple and they come out pretty sad.

Google Maps are a bit too low res to work well.

The Zombicide map editor (https://zombicide.com/en/blog-map-editor) might work for you also. It takes some getting used to but it is just tiles that you can put together. Be sure to change the quantities for all the tilesets to a larger number so you can reuse the tiles or use the one that are normally on the other side of a tile.

OOC when I tried this the map tiles are very faded, not like what it shows in the example pics.

Yeah.. I found that too. Hrm. Theoretically this could be used somehow... but I'm not sure.

Yeah. I just open up the png file in gimp and reduce the brightness and increase the contrast so they don't look as faded. Here is a sample:
7095

The other possible issue is things are run down which might not work for some modern games.
