Riverbend V 1.0
Riverbend
Over eons the mighty river carved it’s way through the hills and mountains, washing out stretches of swampy flat land, only leaving the hard rock. After centuries of work, humans finally managed to drain the swamps and bogs and now what is left is a fertile and solid ground for a city, optimally located near the shipping routes downriver to the ocean.
This map is based on the Middle-Rhine region around Koblenz and you can find anything you want here, flat land, hills and farms. The ressource brushes have been used to make the fields but you can still use those areas for oil and ore industry.
25 tiles mod is highly recommended, but with all 81 this map unfolds beautifully.
My personal recommendation would be to use the River, it’s smaller tributary and the lakes to the south with canals and ferries to ease your public transportation.
