# Difficulty Description
1 Medium Arrowhead Island Originally set up as a research station to study the effects of nuclear fallout this artitifical island made of mud, sand and seashells is all that's left of the original inhabitants. With the power of machines dig into the 2 natural peaks but be careful as the sea cares not on who it claims. Some have rumoured there's a kings ransom in gold hidden somewhere around here.
2 Easy Cursed Mountain Isle Once a nuclear testing site but now a treasure trove. Acid rains and sea storms have uncovered valueable minerals all over. Who knew millenia ago this was an old mangrove swamp but now it's just a pacific island. Those ancient creatures are now valueable resources, get drilling for oil and mining that coal!!
3 Insane Dead Man's Island After 2 nuclear tests just a few years apart it was deemed uninhabitable. Capitalist's deem it safe. Just don't ask a scientist. Great wealth of resources; just not on this island. With limited space and overgrown forests this isn't going to be easy. If only these mountains or radioactive craters wasn't here we could get to the mainland.
Description

In the 1950s and 1960s this site was used to test nuclear weapons. Now in 2105 it's some of the last resources left on the planet. Captain, failure is not an option. The Quintillionaires need more money!! The capitalist's deem it safe. Just don't ask a scientist.

Let me know if you guy's want a non-sandbox version. Any feedback is welcome. If this one gets a bunch of downloads I'll post some more of my maps.

Looks like a pretty awesome map. Are the mega resources above the sea level? Mostly above sea level? Or do you need to mine to the world floor to get them 'all' out???

Keeping with the theme it's not a hold your hand sandbox but a PVE sandbox of huge deposits. Only sand, coal, bauxite and titanium can only be obtained by mining down so mostly below sea level but rest have large above sea level mountains. Large central mountain is over 200 tall above sea level, takes up half main island with easier 'stair access' on the side containing most other resources. Resources are in big amounts but quite far away making early game harder. Once you get trains things become much easier. Craters full of uranium can be annoying to mine. There are also area's just dirt and stone without resources. Insane start might be impossible. Might make an easier V2 if people want that instead.
