Overkill again mate.
If I'm in a city I don't know, I'm not going to sit down and study maps for a week so that I know the area off by heart. It's a HUGE over complication. Just get a bearing away from the effected area, and leave. Once you're out of a city, you're in a better situation than you were. Then when you're out, that's when everything else we practice comes into play. But to leave a city, all you NEED is security (a weapon), comms (mobile phone, or payphones), and money (because it's very likely to can buy any other stuff you may need).
I think there is a HUGE over complication of what people need. MA3041 is spot on with talking about what people want or need.
For you BP, you want (in your head, you believe you NEED it, because it's that important to you) to know the area like the back of your hand....thus the map studying and all that. But logically, you just walk away from the affected area.
