Axtlan's Design Sheet - Rats (Buildings)

Taking the early Rats building sketches and giving the structures clearer jobs. Complaint sheds, relay towers, depots, processing blocks, cult spaces, and ad-tower weapons all grow out of ruined offices, data floors, scaffolds, signs, and cable runs.

The important part is keeping the reused city visible. Nothing should look like it began as a clean new building.
