 I have decided to obliterate the previous city as it wasn't so good. The map and general stats are still the same but instead of an all natural feel at the begining, I have decided to start with an highway, Route 37 (ingame streets). Here is my new approach on this cj:

(I have to yet change the banner for my new batlen!)

Long, long time ago on a far distant planet, there was a fat guy with pink underwear... Just kidding! 3.gif

So... Sometime in 1900, a fisherman from British Columbia named Finn decided he could bear no more. So he set sail on the pacific. After aprox. 3 months, he reached a land no one else had been to... (well at least no one's in my region at the beginning) ...He decide to settle in. He found out that there was enough cod for him to last over 10 lifetimes!

An old picture of Finn's landing:

Finn's landing was originally composed of his house & dock, huge refrigerated cod storage shed, and "Finn's Cod Shop".

This attracted many passerbyers. And oddly, someone actually decided to settle in with Finn. This guy named Travis was actually some really rich tycoon who wanted a low-life. So he hired a huge construction crew to build his house at the intersection of Route 37 and the so-called "Finn street".

Picture of Travis Manor under construction, preetty low-life if you ask me:

It seems like Finn also has quality "cod cement". As depicted in the picture above showing the cement mixer appearing from Finn St.

Soon, this old tycoon got tired of his low-life although he had 24/7 security on his property. So he moved his logging company to this place (city-tile) and got a new wood processing factory up and running alittle north of his house.

This Travis guy has his logging company working 10 hours per shift with no lunch break in some areas. Here, its already hard for the workers to drive 30km to and fro work. And this Travis is a nice guy, as long as it doesn't take too much of his money! So he thought of this really cool idea of building a housing project for some of his workers to rent. And, wow, was he lucky! The moment he announced this to his workers, EVERYONE wanted to rent them. So the prices went up and up and up until only 3 people were willing to take it.

The 3 houses Travis built (well actually...):

This will conclude this update. I'm telling you that I will not give up (like in my previous ones) on this CJ!

Feel free to comment, give suggestions or ask "where can I find this?"

Bye!!
