Where do you find shops? I've looked all over the place, and I've been having no luck whatsoever!

I suspect you've never tried doing many illegal things yet in your game. The second the CCS knows you're "active", they'll come down on you like the hammer of God.

Ridiculous

Make sure you are looking in towns, not hamlets. It will say which you are in on the travel map. Towns are little yellow crosses, although of course this may be different depending on the graphics you use (should still be yellow though).

On the travel map, towns show up the same as hamlets, but the rectangles will be yellow for areas containing shops.

Yea and if it helps when you bring up the large map, the tiles that contain a town are a + icon.

You may have to hunt around a bit, the shops look exactly the same as the other human dwellings, the only difference is they have a sign out front showing what kind of shop it is.

As it stands though, they're kinda worthless. Their selection is tiny, they never sell anything better than Iron, and they're only really useful (as far as armor goes) if you're human.
