Stopping... For now

By Jamonbread,

I have encountered massive problems with my city tile which is right in the centre of the region which is supposed to be the capitol. Go figure, right? Also, I havent been happy with picture quality and Ive been experimenting with new ways to upload pics. I am also going to be really busy in the upcoming months with exams and university applications so I am not going to have much time to update unfortuanately. HOWEVER! I plan to make two new journals. One continuing with the Capitol District and one with...

---UPDATE--- Sorry about the lack of posts... I've been really busy but I've been working on the Empire quite a bit and I have a bunch of stuff I am dying to show so hopefully during X-mas there will be much more posting going on, anyway enjoy this classy golf neighbourhood and Ski resort (One of three in the Capitol District). Once again, thanks for visiting the Empire!

--- Replies --- Daan300 - Thanks man, I appreciate the comment! ---UPDATE--- North Kritton Creek runs through two lakes. Lake Oboejor and Lake Talisman. It is one of two sources of the Kenningsjor River and watershed which runs through central Kritton and of course Kenningsjor. It is surrounded by grade A farmland and some small cottages and homes along the bank. So, to the pictures! The lovely town of Talisman and Lake Talisman IRR- 02 IRR- 105 The end of Lake Talisman fed by natural springs from its...

---Replies--- shulmanator - Thanks, I just got some more flora props so im hoping to improve even more! Retep Molinari - Thanks for the rating! Im glad I angered you Dann300 - Thanks buddy! Always nice to hear from you! ---UPDATE--- Kritton was once an important river stopover for goods being run up and down the river by boat delivering a wide variety of goods from the SW Quadrant. The modern rural highways still run through town but its importance as a trade centre has plumetted due to its landlocked...

Rural Kenningsjor

By Jamonbread,

---Replies--- tepodon - Thanks very much! That was my first experiment with those culvert lots, I'm glad you like them! ---UPDATE--- First off, lets visit the small village yet to be engulfed by subburbia... Madison. Madison is as old as kenningsjor but has not enjoyed the growth the heart of the city has. It has however prospered and has succesfully attracted hightech jobs to replace the manufacturing jobs it has held for the past century. Madison is now home to a modern biotech lab and a brand new...

---Replies--- tepodon - Thanks a bunch! Dann300 - Ah, you're too kind as usual, thanks a lot! BTW I hope to see your city journal updated soon ---UPDATE--- Well Ive shown you the urban side of Kenningsjor but what about the places which never got developed? Here they are... these areas have been protected as small islands of green for the environment of the Capitol District. Enjoy. Here is the pride and joy of the Kenningsjor hippy community. The Upper Kenningsjor Conservation Area was opened in 1956 and...

Upper Kenningsjor Bay

By Jamonbread,

---Replies--- Archean - Thanks very much! CTMandR - Thanks a lot! Ya, I'm looking for ski lifts without much success and I've never made my own lots so I hope it turns out! ---UPDATE--- Upper Kenningsjor Bay is the newest neighbourhood of the city, only about ten years old. The Ministry of Environment and the Ministry of Settlement joined together and created a protected area around the city to protect the high grade farmland so this will likely be the last development for Kenningsjor. The area is largely...

Back with a BANG!

By Jamonbread,

---UPDATE--- Here is a preveiw of everything to come starting this weekend. Kenningsjor Bay has been completed along with two smaller towns within its borders. Also the city to the west, Kritton is almost complete along with its internationally acclaimed golf course, ski resort, and lakeside resort. Here is a shot of the completed Kenningsjor Bay. Here are a few pictures from the outskirts of Kritton. And the not yet completed small ski resort... Thanks for returning to the Empire! Callahorn Salutes you!

---Replies--- xdancerk3 - Thanks very much! dimipol006 - Thanks a lot. I like to develop coastal areas the most. Always a challenge. Daan300 - Thanks! PlyPlay665 - Thanks, I appritiate your comments! BTW, you were clear, I was the one who worded my reply badly. I meant I hope you like the next update as well! But anyways, thanks ---UPDATE--- Here are some various sights that make Kennigsjor a beautiful and unique place to live. Here is Promenade Park. Built on the hilltop overlooking the city, the Park is...

---Replies--- Stoney525 - Always a pleasure, thats my favourite interchange! PlyPlay665 - Thank you very much for checking the Empire out! I hope its worth the wait! Keep-Up - Thanks a lot! I'll definately look into the Alliance, sounds cool. ---UPDATE--- Welcome back to the Central Quadrant. This time we Visit Kennigsjor Bay, a large city built along the beautiful shores and escartment of Kennigsjor Bay. Kenningsjor was settled long before the Island but was peacefully integrated into the Empire at its...

---Replies--- Stoney525 - Thanks a lot! I hope you enjoy my cities as well! The journal is changing directions, ran out of islands on the map Daan300 - Thanks a ton! Always a pleasure to have you visit! ---TEASER--- I've been spending all my extra time on this lovely city for you folks, but, im still working on it. Assuming no crashes, I'll have a big update by the end of the week but here is a sneak peak at what I have been working on. This is the busiest and most important interchange in the city...

--- Replies --- mgmg14 - Thanks a lot! Daan300 - Thanks very much for you comment and for returning! --- UPDATE--- This is the last Island Quadrant update! Yes thats right, one quadrant completely done! You can expect a little more land in the updates to come as well as some big cities and large infrastructure projects. The Wee Islands was established in 1887 by a rich merchant who wanted a nice secluded place to spend his money and get into the fishery industry. The town was completely supported by the...

---Replies--- Attila464 - Happy to hear you like it! Im pleased with the water mod too, I only got it a few weeks ago Glad you think its realistic! Shulmanator - Thanks a lot! I hope the Scolly Isles doesn't dissapoint! abcvs - I really appriciate your comments! Realism is my number one goal. emmie - Thats very kind of you to say! Thanks a lot! *blush* ---UPDATE--- The Scolly Isles is a popular tourist attraction for Capitol District residents, great for long weekends. The Isles are a series of populated...

---UPDATES--- Here are some regional shots showing you where recent progress is being made as well as imminent development and future updates. You may be wondering why there are more than 4 quadrants in the region. Well there are actually eight if you include Celwyn, the Capitol City, which is its own mini district. This is because when the quadrants were created, the population only required four back in 1388, at the very beginning of the Empire, after forming together into what at the time was the...

---Replies--- Cobra_nVidia - Haha, thanks, I'm glad you agree! ---UPDATE--- Welcome back to Konowa Point. This time we're getting up close to see what the city's all about! So without any yakking.... The lovely city hall. A look at the harbourfront. Unlike most places, the harbour is outside of downtown because this site provides more protection from those great Callhornian storms! A park near the stadium. The path system here connects the retail, residential, school and beach. Did someone say stadium? Hmm...

---Replies--- Dimipol006 - Thaks for visiting the empire, glad you like it! Aye you've got that right, although their habitat is a bit small, perhaps you would like to suggest a name for the new speices and i might integrate it into the journal Daan300 - Thanks a lot! Naftixe - Totally agree with you there, I was going for more modern developments so I didnt really build the towns outward from the ferries but I see what you mean... I have some ideas for next time. Thanks for your advice! ---UPDATE---...

N'bhat - Island Quadrant

By Jamonbread,

---Replies--- (x+x²)²/x - Thanks a lot for your support! Im glad you like it and look forward to future praise ...or ya know critique, I don't mind! ---Update--- Welcome to N'bhat! Ive taken time off from Hushenna Bay hoping to fix tech issues. So heres another subburb of the city, an hours ferry ride away! N'bhat was settled in 1880 but was not officially an Imperial Certified settlement until public docks and post office were built for the islands inhabitants in 1953. Shortly after a road was...

--- Update --- Welcome to North Tally Island Municipality! Just a few cottages and a small fishing jetty for years, the development of neighbouring Hushenna Bay and the rest of the Capitol District prompted this prime land to develop into beautiful communities. Once rezoned in 1947, the area exploded in development and is now the main and richest subburb of the Capitol District to date. Houses on the beach and seaside bluffs go for as high as 10 million simolineons. Its natural beauty, reputation and...

---Update--- Hallranian Springs was established in the early 1900's shortly before the invention of the car as a few houses at a train station. These people had worked and that very railway and decided the springs were too beautiful to leave! They saw an oppurtunity in tourism and began to build cabins and trails. By the 20's, the town experianced a huge surge in population and has become an important centre for services for locals and remains natural in beauty. Todays stats are... pop...7,290...

---UPDATE--- Hi all, Ive been very busy and already my cj is falling behind. Here is a sneak peak at the new coastal City I have been working on...Hushenna Beach. More information will follow but here are a few pictures! Here is really the centre of the city. The large bookfold building is the brand spankin new city hall, along side the Hushenna Empirial Hotel and among the expensive beach development condos. Here is where the Capitol District League Hushenna Huskies play beside a condo development that...

---Replies--- Blakeway: Thanks a lot! and congrats on the first comment MTA3479: Thanks! I like region shots the most, especially the sprawl ---Update--- Timberville was set up in the late 1700's to provide lumber for the growing capitol. It was built first around the mill operated by Calhr Lumber Co. later dubbed the Royal Calhr Lumber Co.. Later in 1729 a large church was added which drew city expansion south. In the later 1800's after timber started depreciating in value, the city deversified to other...

Just a quick note to begin, I'm using no demand cheats. I am obviously using NAM and I don't play the game with a budget. I use a casino which I buldoze after one month that gives a monthly income of over 6 billion simolineons. In terms of mods I use the agrigulture quadruple job mod and landmark jobs mod. Most of my cities are largely growable as I feel it creates a much smoother working city and often looks more natural. I am nowhere near done this region, in fact I've just started a few weeks ago so...
