New London
New London was first founded in 1719, in 1720 there were 77 people living in the colony, but it was going to get a lot bigger in the future.
Here is a photo of New London in 1720: http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/4732/wpa0.png |
in 1726 New London had grown to 150 people and three Farms, they even had a dock.

it's the first time i see an old town projeect and is a good idea. You are going to model it through time until nowadays, aren't you? because that would be interesting. Only one thing, those mountains on the background doesn't look very good, they are like green cliffs, maybe you could make the smoother or smaller. Im waiting for updates!

I did my best on the mountains, if i did any mre detailed it will crash my computer. maybe i will try it without terrain.
:shrug: |
here is version 2.0:
http://i1291.photobucket.com/albums/...ps1a49633a.png Henry Thompson moved here in 1816, when natives attacked his town. unfortunately his family was the only one that survived. so he moved up the river until he reached this spot |
In 1817 Andrew Peterson moved here to avoid the natives, he built a large barn that he and his neighbor shared. (He had the bigger field :rolleyes:)
http://i1291.photobucket.com/albums/...ps31d91969.png Henry Thompson had 1 wife & 4 kids, Andrew Peterson had 1 wife & 6 kids. Census Results: 14 |
It's good to see a timeline city in here, they're always interesting. I like the effort you put in the stories and the people who populate the city.

in 1819 George Philips moved here after hearing about these settlers, his wife and 7 kids joined him 3 months later.

in 1824 Jason Marksman, a famous archer, traveled along the road, and when he saw that the road ended here, he decided to build an inn, The Londonium Inn.
James Rockefeller from the famous oil family, bought a large parcel of land, and put the people from the inn to work. http://i1291.photobucket.com/albums/...ps7361d1d9.png |
I post updates to my city whenever I can.
