[h3]About the 'Down Under DLC'[/h3]
During the first half of the 19th Century, the colonial territories of Australia are sparsely populated and consist primarily of coastal cities and a few smaller farming settlements in the remote outback. However, a series of events is set to spark an industrial revolution, one that will usher in an era of change for Australia and secure a lucrative future for the fledgling nation. In Railway Empire Down Under DLC, it is up to you to tame the unforgiving outback and expand your railway network across its wild terrain and beyond. Your railway will ultimately be the key to laying the foundations for flourishing cities and to connecting remote mining settlements to coastal metropolises. Are you ready to face the sun-scorched landscape of Australia’s Red Centre?

• New scenario: ‘Pioneering Spirit’ (1830-1930)
  
• Map expansion: ‘Down Under’ (available in Free Game and Sandbox modes)

Tycoons,
today sees the release of the new ‘Thunder Across the prairie’ challenge update (version 1.13.0-25785 NA).
In addition to the new challenge map, in this update, we’ve used the community’s vital feedback to focus on tackling the below points, alongside adding many small improvements in the code, too small and numerous to list, mostly in preparation for the latest DLC release ‘Down Under’:

[h3]New addition[/h3]
New Challenge Map ‘Thunder Across the prairie’
Thousands of miles of open prairie to conquer, your clients are breathing down your neck with a busy schedule and on top of it all, speculators have driven up property prices. Make your way through the diverse landscapes of North America, connect the coastal cities and create a railroad empire from scratch. Building a transcontinental railroad is no walk in the park, but if you can’t do it, who else can do it?
