I wanted a map that had it all: fertile plains, plenty of resources, islands, plateaus suitable for building, waterfalls, mountains, rivers…mountain rivers? Oh and trains, lots and lots of trains.
So here is my first map, completely hand-drawn, with extremely meticulous attention given to a pre-built train system: 2 completely separate tracks exist with 2 map connection each, so you can completely separate passenger/cargo train lines if you wish to avoid undue congestion from the outset. A few massive "train-terchanges" of my own crazy design (see preview photo) exist in the map, with train junctions webbing out around a few of Timboh’s interchanges, as well as weaved through some of Strata’s roundabouts. About half of the highways are already elevated at the outset; I hope the beams from the rail lines and roads don’t prove too much of a hassle to build around.
I designed it with the 25-tile mod in mind, and I made sure to make the starting tile fairly hospitable. Personally, I enjoy playing on sandbox and unlocking the whole map before I build, so I hope the start position works out for everyone.
If you give the map a try, I hope you enjoy it. This being my first foray into uploading content onto Steam, please do let me know if I left anything out or screwed anything up with the train lines. I would add more preview photos, but I’m a n00b and can’t find the other screenies I took. Maybe just DL the map and see for yourself? ;]
Have fun! 😀
