Ah, but none of those run through an island. New Guinea and New Zealand both do have one, however.

 

[eldar]

New Zealand's Southern Alps pretty much hug the west coast, classic coastal subduction zone.

North Island is basically a volcano.

This isn't from a game but I always wondered what a city view with everything would look like...

 

[ChaosArbiter]

...
Is the Colossus naked?

 

[Bratmon]

You've never built it before?

 

[ChaosArbiter]

I don't remember; I know that I've never looked at it in the city view, certainly.

That might be possible in a tiny map/minimum opponent 20K Chieftan-level game.

 

[ThinkTank]

Even then ... looks like a lousy starting position...

@ Casey... love the Houston pic

 

[GamezRule]

Getting everything is easy. Just play a game with no opponents.

 

[CELTICEMPIRE]

I love Twilight of Byzantium!

The Great Lighthouse is missing.

By the way, how did you even manage to finish the Apollo Program with cities improved at that degree?

 

[eldar]

The Great Lighthouse is there - look under the tip of the Colossus's spear.

Not really true- some of these things can't normally exist in the same city. For example, an aqueduct and a hydro plant can never exist in the same city, since you can't build an aqueduct if you have fresh water access and you can't build a hydro plant if you don't have fresh water acces.

Hoover Dam.

It's probably a mod, and he just edited himself to start with Space Flight, and gave himself an SGL to rush the Apollo Program with. I can't think of any other reason to have cities that underdeveloped, or any other reason there are a bunch of unfortified Regular Defensive units sitting in all of his cities. It would also explain the city names, which are indicative of either being pre-placed or an extremely absurd settling pattern, due to the order of the American city list.

But don't you only have to have a river in the city's radius to build a hydro plant, and the aqueduct can still be built if the river is only at the edge?

 

[eldar]

There's an Aqueduct in the picture, and the city is also on a river - that looks like a city that has had everything added in the editor.

 

[Bratmon]

He TOLD US he didn't build it in a game.
