Turtle, you will now receive orders from wouanagaine since The_Hutt is too busy irl and will skip this challenge.
Hopefully wouanagaine will post in the following days. We will give you the extensions for building your received demands as you need.

Thank you

Fred

Ok, I'll take the command :)

Your mission if you accept it is to develop tile A and tile D ( the north part )

On tile A, create a natural park/reserve on the western side of the river, while developing a mostly rural town on east side ( fire protection and elementary school as minimal civic buildings ), and create a small passenger station so people can work on the town on tile B
On tile D, western side, finish the natural park/reserve, eastern side, create some farms and let the town on tile B transition smoothly on tile D  ( add some suburbs to the right side of tile D )
Hope it is clear

Take care
Wouanagane

I suppose you mean let the town on tile E (Bordertown) transition smoothly on tile D?

Allright, finally I've finished the 5th challenge. I'm sorry for being this late, but I've been really busy since I've been around last time. In my defence, I only got the orders on the 25th, and therefore missing the first weekend of playing time. (excuses exschmuses...) Here goes:

Here we have my realisation of Wouangaines separatist demands:

First an overview of the town and farms in Tile A: Upland Hills

Judging Challenge 5

I finally got around to continue the GRV II Challenges and we will continue with the judgement of Challenge 5, 6 and 7 in the next weeks. Make also sure to read the *speach* that I wrote in the General discussion thread, maybe giving an explanation to all this delay.
How this challenge was judged can be found in the Challenge 5 thread. Please read it so you can judge my Challenge 5 also.

This challenge wasn't any easier than the one before to judge, because we had to look at many different points and from different views. Thank You.


1. Checkpoints wre well re-connected and well controlled, only 4 points could have been given for a perfect job like this.
2. Your orders to your adversay were clear and net, well thought off. 3 points were given.
3. The completion of the rebel's demand were well executed, finely detailed and excellent use of props and lots. 4 solid points were added.
4. The army bases are not exactly impressive and we wondered if it could have been intimidating enough, but good details and effort made us decide to give you a solid 3 points.
5. We very much liked the pond in this picture, excellently detailed and natural looking. Fantastic work and a well earned 4 points were added.

A total of 18 points were added to your score, which is very good.

Lynn and Fred
