Hello and welcome to Ankou Hills®! Ankou Hills was made on December 20, 2008 by Ava Defil3d. This is my FIRST ever City Journal! So, lets get started! This is Centre Ankou, pretty much what I am going to focus all my efforts on.
*NOTE* I am playing SC4 on a different computer. Stupid laptop doesn't have a cd drive! WTH?

And a sneek peak ( I am gonna try to figure out whats gonna go there....):

    Update 2: Smog & Acres

    Hi and welcome to my 2nd update of... Ankou Hills!

    I have updated Centre Ankou... very smog-ish:

    Now off that sad topic, here is the next update: Ankou Acresville!

    ankouacersville1sn6.png

    Ankou Acresville was made on fertile land is the 1880s. But, then, under Ava Defil3d's rule, they separated from Yemen. Here is a map:

    The green is forests. it is located east of Yemen and west of India. 

    And, here is Farmings Square!

    Very nice start. Farmings Square almost perfectly captures the "small town" feel. Looking forward to more.

    Very Nice! 9.gif

    Some more custom content would be nice though.

    I would recommend turning off the zots by pressing ctrl + x and typing "tastyzots".

    Love the way you have the agriculture close to the industry.

    Update 4: Another Metropolis!

    Hey, I have another HUGE metropolis: Ankou Industrial!
    HEUGE.jpg

    Ok, ok. Not THAT industrious... but, hey, I'm trying to keep the pollution down? Actually (just noticed) you can see some Hi-Tech in there... hm.

    Wanna see the trasportation map? Really? Here you go!
    TransportationAnkouindustrial.jpg

    The white is the Intra-Plains Highway.

    The red is the Intra-Plains Interstate (For new people visiting).

    And, the 2nd new city... Outersburg!

    Ok, you can't see the blue line very well, but look for the interstate. it should run along all of them.
