About This File

Basic info:

- Total size: 20 x 18 km

- 12 large, 30 medium and 48 Small cities

- Slightly modificated version of a real Norwegian region

 

IMPORTANT NOTE!

There are two ways for importing this map to SC4. You can either use the .SC4M file with Terraformer-import OR if you are e.g. unable to use Terraformer, you can do the import traditional way with the grayscale file, which will result in lower mountains than you could get with .SC4M import. See the readme or contact me for additional info.

 

Info

Fjällport was my first region I made out of some DEM data over Norway I found lying around the Internet. This second region, with imaginary name Thorhamn*, is based on the region east of Ålesund, near and around Røvik and Molde. This map is not accurately scaled; it is roughly 60% of the "life size" and also the vertical dimensions are modified.

 

Map contains long strips of easy-to-develop land surrounded by water and more-or-less steep mountains. There are also some valley areas on the upper plateaus that shouldn't be too hard to develop.

 

* Thor is the Scandinavian counterpart to Zeus and hamn is the Swedish word for harbor.

Thanks people! It's nice to read positive comments though I would like hear some criticism too, in order to improve my works further. ; )

You should try for accurate scale maps, as you seem to have the potential. Besides, I love to see more and more Scandinavian maps around here! 8D They seem to be rare on any SC4 site. 8C

Yeah, the problem with Scandinavian maps is that there is not much DEM data available (for free at least). I can try to make accurate scale maps in the near future.
