Thanks for the update. Yes, I've seen that the Early Start DLC is sorely missing some important features to be usable without mods.

3Division Keeps updating/changing the early start dlc. This is why it is taking me so long, as I have to keep changing my map to accommodate it. I was also waiting to see if they would add early flatbed ships. Otherwise expect the early start version to have a single customs house.

Would love to see the early start version come out officially. I wanted to do do Early Start on this but seeing all the modern vehicles I realized it just wouldn't make any sense.

Great map. My first attempt at an island game and gave just what was needed for a challenging but possible realistic mode start.

@Desert Dellrium then I'll wait for your version. You know the map better :)

@Meow Meow. Go ahead. I just ask that you credit me in the description. Just be aware that i'm already in the process of making an early start version which will be released sometime soon hopefully.

Can I ask to make a separate version with old vehicles?

UPDATED: Early start years should no longer be locked.

This map is great, the question is, would it be possible to make it for the new DLC to start in 1930, because now this option is blocked?

Oh i like this one.

Good Challenge Haha !

The last guy should go to Gulag, seriously. He sucked ! ;)

@ratroach357 & everyone else. Thank you for the positive feedback. I put immense effort in making the map both playable and fun, yet challenging. I will be making an early start version sometime soon depending on the content provided in the DLC. Also I am currently making several other similar realistic start maps, both fictional and 1:1 non-fictional. I can't promise when I will release these but they will come eventually.

It really is a treasure. It has everything i need - a small starting town with present materials, vehicles and fully hardcore-ready infrastructure, lots of flat space, sea connection, cool little creeks, and some villages. Plus, it being an island makes it feel more cozy in a way????. The only thing i did is placed a big customs to the south west of the island because i didn't really want to meddle with ships as my only means of getting stuff and i wanted to use trains for trade instead of just local movement. Can't wait to play this with the Early Start DLC, even if the present buildings are going to look slightly out of place.

This map really is a gem, haven't seen anything else like this on the workshop. Other realistic starts throw an overwhelming amount of towns and infrastructure at you. This is challenging while giving you just the right amount of tools to deal with said challenge.

This map contains the perfect combination of population,infrastructure, and resources for a realistic mode start.

Nice map, really like the style you gave the starting town. Also liked the minor changes added recently. Definitely a challenging start - I find power is the biggest initial problem because the wind power doesn't go much further than what is already established. Trying on realistic (with easy money mind you) and still a challenge, even if I use some mods, though I've trying to only use mods for aesthetic purposes. Hope you do something similar again!

UPDATED: All fences are now connected to gates; Thus making them able to be demolished. Including various changes to the starting area.

Don't let the american fash find out bro, they are gonna swarm your island

Yes, It is the coat of arms for Vormsi Parish which encompasses the island.
