About This File
Yes ladies and gentlemen, a 3 pack. I know that some have found a given region to be too big, some to be too small, so I will be offering this, and some future regions, in multiple sizes! In the downloaded folder, you will find the same region in three different sizes - 5x5 large cities, 6x6 large cities, and 7x7 large cities. Certainly one will be just right!
The map was based on USGS data of southeastern Georgia, USA. I hand-terraformed and altered the river system heavily. The result is a river delta region where five distinct rivers of varying size meet the sea. There should be many options for different types of development.
The Sizes:
Brock1281 is 1281 x 1281, 5 x 5 large city tiles, 20km x 20km (roughly).
Brock1537 is 1537 x 1537, 6 x 6 large city tiles, 24km x 24km (roughly).
Brock1793 is 1793 x 1793, 7 x 7 large city tiles, 28km x 28km (roughly).
The Download:
The download is a folder containing three subfolders - Brock1281, Brock1537, and Brock1793. Each of these folders corresponds to the sizes described above. In each folder, you will find a screenshot for that particular size, a .sc4m file, and a config bitmap (feel free to make a different config if you want). Look at the screenshots to determine which size you want, then follow the directions below for getting the map into the game!
Dependencies:
You must have either SC4Mapper or SC4TerraFormer.
The screenshot shows the map rendered with cycledogg's Italia Terrain Mod with standard snowcapped file, and with PEG's Brigantine Water Mod - these, of course, are not necessary to play the map.
