South Lakes

Description
A balanced map inspired by the south of the Lake District in England. Has plenty of natural resources. A large lake is surrounded by steep mountains. A river runs from the lake to the sea. A tributary joins from another lake. Highways are built throughout the map weaving between the mountains though around half the map is flat to allow for effcient city building. Overall a beautiful and interesting map allowing large and productive cities.

In real life, the South Lakes has only the M6 running through the east but for gameplay reasons I added plenty of highways. Also, this map is only inspired by the Lake District, it is far from a depiction of it.

Hope you enjoy it. There will be updates to the map shortly to improve the water systems of it.

I'm doing the DofE gold atm, and I'm doing it in the lakes, but I also did my bronze and silver there. I love it

Yeah, I love the lakes, I go every year to the north west area near Keswick but I believe the south has some flatter areas so I decided to call it the south lakes.

It's no problem, the lake district is cool and you've captured it pretty bloody well

I will certainly consider making another map that is more faithful to the real world. I will also edit the curent map so that the dams should work better after reading up on how dams work in this game.

I really appreciate your comments, thank you very much.

The m69 kind of just brushes it aswell at points, but yeah, it mostly sticks around carlisle. It would be cool if you could get the trainlines in, like the trans penine, between oxenholme, penrith and carlisle. Maybe even northern trains. maybe this is too much though. Thanks anyways, it's a brilliant map.

True there is only one motorway, the M6 in the Lake District but I added more for gameplay reasons.

I'm glad you like it, I only made it for a bit of fun. I'll will make a V2 with improved water so that the dams may actually work better.
