Republic 37
REPUBLIC 37
——————————————————————
What started off as an edit of a random map (Republic 35), ended as a mostly hand crafted map (Republic 36) and then updated into the final form as Republic 37 with a lot more beautiful, hand crafted locations and added villages. My goal was to make something realistic, with diverse terrain, interesting locations, and logical resource placements. At the same time staying withing the game scale and mechanics to create something that is both realistic, beautiful and fun to play.
All the terrain is hand crafted. Mountains to the west, flatlands to the east, some swamps and mountain valleys scattered around.
Rivers move down form the mountains to the coastline with access to both borders. A lot of forests and vegetations giving a feel of an untouched part of land. Some smaller lakes and rivers spread across every part of the map.
Resources are hand placed with logical placements and many options to build anywhere on the map. Some parts have clustered resources with the intent to be more industrial focused, while some places have a more rural feel.
There’s several smaller villages spread across the map. Railroads and roads are connecting through the republic, giving easy access to all parts of the map and providing many scenic locations.
