Publication history
Citybook II: Port o' Call was edited by Liz Danforth, Michael Stackpole, and Jennifer Roberson, with a cover by Carl Lundgren and illustrations by Liz Danforth, Steve Crompton, and Dave Helber, and was published by Blade/Flying Buffalo in 1984 as a 112-page book, with a second printing of the first edition in 1986 from Blade/Task Force Games as a new publisher, and a second edition published by Flying Buffalo Inc in 1990 as a 120-page book with no price on the cover. Contributors include Allen Wold, Dave Arneson, Jim "Bear" Peters, Greg Gorden, Charles de Lint, Hank Stine, Glenn Rahman, Rudy Kraft, and Rick Loomis.
Flying Buffalo had begun an ambitious publishing schedule after arranging a line of credit with a local printer in 1982, which included Citybook II: Port O' Call; however, after an ownership change the printer cut this line of credit in 1983 so it would be a year before Flying Buffalo could produce Citybook II (1984).
