    By the way: According to official Chaumontian documents, Napoleon never lost the battle of Berezina: it was a draw.. 2.gif

    @Jerebannus XVI I'll just quote myself from another thread where the same question was asked:
    ...I'm quite sure about how it's created. If you look at the point where the retaining wall starts, you can see a slight color change in the dirt texture. That means it is a custom lot. Just make it look like a section of railway, change slope settings, check orientation and TE it. Should do the trick. And yes, it looks amazing...

    Then, I just realized I've never posted in here. I love Rodina, it feels so real. The atmosphere really fits the communist style. Hopefully it hasn't died... Gah, I really should post more in CJs, the authors are always complaining about lack of comments. And that's because of lurkers, like me... 14.gif Don't say this has ended, Sepsis! Well, probably not.

     Yep, Zed is absolutely correct.
     I use custom TE lots (different sizes, but mostly 1x12, 2x12) and a slope mod.

    Hmmmm... can't believe I've never posted in here.. oh well.

    Hey, Sepsis

    I've lurked around your CJ here for too long of a time. I've gotten lots of ideas from your military bases and airforce bases. Your work is really inspiring, thanks for sharing. I agree with the others, your cities really have a communist feel to them, not sure exactly what it is, but it's there. I've always liked how you make custom lots for pretty much every major building you show in your updates. Just the small details like missles up above the tanks, and the little Rodina flags on the lots are great.

    Keep up the great work, comrade! 10.gif

    Great CJ and good attention to detail, and yes I know Laibach too, they have done the best version of Sympathy for the Devil that I have ever heard, better than Rolling Stones! How about their country? Is it real, do they have their own country yet?


    I love coffee and buildings.

    I have been lurking in this cj for quite some time now and I must say how impressed I am by the overall look and feel of your region. The airforce and naval bases you have created as well as the capital city all are quite unique and show off your creativity. Thumbs up on your use of custom content. Keep up the good work, comrade.

    Long live the REVOLUTION!

    I've been thinking for some time now that Bostalk should have an embassy.Not just any embassy,but an embassy for Rodina.Since now both our nations have common goals and a common Communist Governemnt,,,,anyway I just wanted to stop by and say your doing an excellent job!

    Tovaritsj Sepsis,

    I am glad to see another update again of the socialist Republic.
    Very nice Opera, quite socialist style.
    I hope the apartments in that first picture (police station) are not inhabited by too many burgeoisy!
    That small docks where once the market was, is just great!
     
    Looking forward to see more.

    Kholodno couldn't hold on to their half-time lead after one of their key defenders got sent off in the 64th minute. Torpedo's young striker
    Ivan Ofitserov scored twice at the end of the game.
    With a point earned, Pik Kholodno climbed to the top of the league table.

    This is a really nice CJ, your design is fantastic, and your cities look beautiful.

    You have so many beautiful custom lots which fit so perfectly in your cities. And your railways look brilliant! I just love what you've down with this CJ!

    You could even release those custom rail lots onto the STEX, because I know I would fins them very handy.

    Keep up the great work on this lovely CJ! 19.gif

    I like seeing all the aspects of life in Rodina, including first division football. Great work as usual with the LE and nice pics. Who's representing Rodina in the UEFA Champions League? Kholodno? I guess it would be last year's top team...
