Zatokov Republic (Metro update)
Welcome to Zatokov Republic!
Height map is in 1:1 scale from this location:
Longitude: 132.40727
Latitude: 43.17939
(Dont ask my why it is flipped, the map looks fine eitherway lol)
The region includes stunning mountain ranges, scenic sea shores, beutiful rivers, efficient transport corridors, moderatelly challenging terrain and rich resources!
The republic came to be after a land dispute over oil rich isle of peace in the Zatokov Bay. It serves as a buffer state between west and east in case of escalation in the region. But im sure that with you as the supreme leader this land can be developed into much more than just that!
Lore aside, i made sure to choose terrain that both incorporated some impassable mountain ranges as well as plenty of sea shore for the upcomming update, that will make trade by train a bit less efficient than ship/plane. I scowered the russian shores and found this gem.
The map contains basic electrified train and road network (to make starting game bearable even in cosmonaut) and a starter town of Ust-Gdyniav in the south-west corner of the map (in case you want a head start).
The only problem you might encounter is… gravel. I highly recommend getting large scale gravel mines from the workshop to fit suitable locations, because there arent many…
Best of luck comerads!
