[SC] The Far North (Arctic)

Description
Have you ever seen the Northern Lights dance in a moonlit sky,
Or heard the distant cries of wolves in the mountains way up high?
Have you ever walked the icy plains where the rain stings and burns,
Or felt the cold pierce through your bones like a thousand knifing turns?
There’s something in the Arctic Wind that holds me like a spell
And it beckons me to live like men, the men only legends tell.
Far away out in the Grey echoes its weathering call,
To brave and bold the winter cold once and for all.


The Far North by Scatily Clad

I first started this map months ago but, at that time, the existence of such a beautiful texture mod had not come fully into existence. It inspired me to finish this map, my first ever, and upload it to the workshop. I used a heightmap from somewhere up the top of the globe, I forget where now. I hope you can enjoy it and don't forget to rug up while you build because this place is subzero.

I intend to make more maps in the future, so if you like this map, rate it, fave it, follow me, whatevs! I also make rail intersections for heavy rail solutions.

If you come across any issues while building, let me know so that I can fix it up.

Features of the map
  • Icey ponds that appear frozen over at times.
  • Large, mostly flat expanses of snowy areas, bordered by thick tree lines.
  • Dense forest areas for forestry industry.
  • Ore and oil are available in many directions from the starting tile.
  • A few small cliff faces and waterfalls.
  • One connected highway and two unconnected highways on the sides.
  • Rail access one tile from the starting tile.
  • An area for building docks with access to sea routes, and flight paths overhead.

@jackdb Just use the Environment Changer mod, you can select it to be a Snowfall Winter map when you start a new map. :) https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=611254368

You will have to download the required mods, then enable them in the contents manager, then make sure that when you get into the game, the terrain theme is properly set (in the settings menu).

Is that normal that I cannot see the snow?

Added two more train lines, removed the random piece of track from the starting tile, added a few more resources. :hardhat:
