Question about Cities...

In the text in Cities, a town is said to have "several hundred individuals living in them".

Yet, I look at the Community Population Levels chart on page 7, and the throw for an Average Town is 2d10 x 10. That's an average of a 100 folks.

Even an Overcrowded town only has an average of 300 folks.

That doesn't sound like "several hundred".

Typo?

Errata?
 
Maybe make it the number of households rather than total population..? So you could multiply the total by 5 or 6. Even so, if you're looking at real world medieval for comparision- most towns were very small in terms of population.
