    Hello and welcome to my newest cj, Ampton County. This is my third attempt at a cj and hopefully this one will be very successful. Unlike my other cjs where I had a good portion of the region complete before putting it on display, this one i am starting from scratch. My region is a hand terraformed 3x3 large tile region, with a large river winding its way through the center of the map. As far as modds and bats go i have alot and i am not going to list them, however if you have any questions about them feel free to ask. My cities tend to resemble realistic american cities, with suburbs, downtowns and realistic comercial areas. As of right now I am setting up the main transportation network (Highways, railways, etc.) throughout the region, so today i will be showing you my progress.  


Pic1.1- 
An overview of the main region tile, where i plan to eventualy build the downtown.

    Looks nice, I like how you planned the major thoroughfares first and then added buildings.

    I like your downtown- very realistic. The city itself is beautiful. I'd offer some constructive criticism, except, I'm not sure what you need to improve.
