ALBANY, NY The capital of New York has strict duel-control ordinances, but local duellists can always visit the Albany Motordrome for a sanctioned combat! For those less than successful in these endeavors, repair and weapon facilities are available. Be sure to look for the Empire State Plaza Pistol Duelling Grounds, one of Albany's most popular attractions. G, WS, A, JB, AADA, TS ATLANTIC CITY, NJ Most travellers visit Atlantic City for its famous casinos--or to play "live Monopoly" along the boardwalk. But some lucky duellists pass Go for a good deal more than $200 at the Baltic Duel Arena...Atlantic City is also the site of the original live "Shootout" game; tickets are available at the Fitzsimmons Sports Office. G, A, TS, C BALTIMORE, MD AADA members visiting this city should confine their travels to the relatively safe downtown area. The suburbs, hard hit in the Food Riots, are unsafe for travel at any time, though individual vehicles in Division 20 or above may visit them for combat practice. Downtown, travellers will want to see the luxurious Hotel Baltimore, a historic 200-year-old structure, and the East's only fully-domed combat stadium, Irsay Memorial Arena. WS, JB, AADA, TS, H BOSTON, MA Massachusett's state captial--once an historic site--was nearly levelled in the Food Riots; it is now one of America's most modern cities. Boston boasts no ordinary weapon shop, but Uncle Albert's catalog showroom. Full cloning facilities are available at Boston Gold Cross. There are three local arenas; daily AADA events are held at the downtown Yelrow Arena, but city championships move to the New Boston Duelling Arena because of its larger capacity. New car buyers can also check out the Fnord Motors Assembly Plant. TS, WS, A, S, JB, GC, AP, AADA, TS BUFFALO, NY Visitors of the city will want to check out the Buffalo Municipal Coliseum, still under construction. This project has been plagued by delays since its inception, but (when finished) it will be one of the nation's largest. Be sure to visit the weapons ship for the latest in duellist accessories. WS, S, AADA, TS DOVER, DE Dover is best known for the world-champion Dover Destroyers, scourge of the combat football circuit. Dover is also the capital of Delaware and the site of the Delaware Agricultural Museum, where visitors can see living samples of many nearly extince plants such as wheat, orange trees, and potatoes. WS, S, TS HARRISBURG, PA Harrisburg is the capital of Pennsylvania. The base of a strong militia during the Second Civil War, it remains one of the more peaceful parts of the state, although downtown areas may be unsafe after dark. Duellist facilities are fairly complete, with ample repair and salvage capacity and a truck stop famed for hospitality to autoduellists. G, A, S, TS MANCHESTER, NH State government moved here when Concord, the original capital, fell victim to the Purple Flash in 2014. Visitors to Manchester can tour the plant of Origin Systems, manufactureres of fine targeting computers, combat simulation software, and similar duelling gear. G, A, AADA, TS, OSI NEW YORK CITY, NY The "Big Apple" hosts the AADA Divisional Championships every six months. It's also the site of the Magnum Motors assembly plant. Due to the danger to Manhattan's fabled skyscrapers, all vehicle weapons must be covered or unloaded downtown--Be careful, because the city militia enforces this rule strictly. G, WS, A, S, JB, GC, AP, AADA, TS PHILADELPHIA, PA The "City of Brotherly Love" has neither repair facilities nor a weapon shop but is home to Panthera Pets, a shop where one may find rather unusual animals. Drivers planning trips through Philadelphia should budget their resources carefully and check in the AADA office for the latest update on road conditions. JB, AADA, PS, TS PITTSBURGH, PA With the destruction of Detroit in WWIII, Pittsburgh became the center of the new U.S. auto industry.

G, WS, A, S, JB, AP, AADA, TS PROVIDENCE, RI Rhode Island's state capital, Providence has no arena and no duellist facilities whatsoever, aside from its downtown truck stop. A major Providence tourist attraction is "aquaduelling"--armed speedboat combat! It'll never replace autoduelling, but it's certainly a thrilling sport. TS SCRANTON, PA Once a thriving mining town, Scranton was all but destroyed when the quakes of '18 toppled the city into the coal mines underneath. Rebuilt to the north of the original site, Scranton is now a small but solid Fortress Town. The rubble of Scranton Crater, along with the scarred acreage left over from a century of mining and blast-furnaces, has become the East's largest private-war compound. Corporations and special-interest groups come here to settle their differences while the nation watches via live TV coverage. WS, S, TS SYRACUSE, NY Syracuse hosts the famed New York State Fair and Combat Exposition from July to September each year. Visitors to Syracuse should pay close attention to local road and warning signs; urban renewal is only now getting under way, and abandoned buildings in the downtown area still shelter street gangs. WS, TS WASHINGTON, D.C. Captial of the 47 states, Washington's chief industry has been government for over 250 years. The President of the United States still fires the ceremonial "first shot" in Federal Arena each year to start the AADA duelling season.

G, A, S, TS WATERTOWN, NY Watertown, the East Coast's largest algae-production center, entered the duelling circuit when the Woolworth Arena was constructed.
