UPDATE 25/06/2022: The download link for this map was broken for some time (as mentioned by some of you in the comments, thanks for notifying me about this). The link has been updated and fixed now 🙂
About 8 years ago, I started creating a few custom maps for a, back-then, fairly popular game in the The Settlers series. The Settlers 6: Rise of an Empire was one of my most favourite games in that period and I really enjoyed pushing it to the limits. I, personally, did not like the maximum limit of settlers that can reside in your empire and quickly began to search for some way to increase the maximum amount of settlers in my empire (I show you in a later post how I was able to overcome this limit very easily). I always went for the extra large maps, but soon ran into problems while expanding my base. I decided to develop two new maps for the game that were full of resources and that allowed the player (me!) to grow beyond the limits of the game.
Today, I decided it is time to share my maps with the world. I’ll be displaying the first of my two finished maps in this post, and provide a link for you to download it and try it yourself. I’m looking forward to seeing some feedback from you and improve my map creating skills in the near future. Be cautious in trying to expand too quickly, it might get you in danger…
The Cold Mountains
My first map is called “The Cold Mountains“. A mountain range in the center of the map divides the cold northern territories of the map from the warm, fertile southern territories. The goal of this map is to reach the fertile south, which provides plenty of resources to grow your population. In order to reach the warm southern provinces, you must conquer some strong enemies!
Pieter,
I’m looking foward to playing your Settlers map, but I’m having trouble downloading it from the page. Is there any way you can fix this?
I can not download your map.
Hi Pieter! I haven’t been able to find your way of increasing the amount of settlers one can have in a game. Can you tell us how? I’ve been running into the same issue namely!
Hi Tim, sorry for the delay in coming back to you. You can increase the settler limit using a program called “MegaTrainer Experience” (which you can download here for example: https://games.softpedia.com/get/Cheat-Solutions/MegaTrainer-eXperience.shtml). What this does is that it enables you to “freeze” the settler count, allowing you to pass the 200 settlers limit (although you will not actually see the correct amount of settlers that are living in your city anymore).
I’m having trouble downloading your map :/
This map sounds awesome!
Hi Pieter,
I saw you answered on the previous post recently so I will give it a shot and ask for your help,
Would you be so kind and tell me where I can find this map? I can’t download it from the website,
This sounds like a really cool map.
Sadly I’m unable to download from the link you provided.
Perhaps you can provide a drive link?
Hi all, the download link was broken for some time, but has been updated and fixed in the description now! Thanks for your patience and understanding 🙂
Can maps be made for Settlers 6 multiplayer games?
Hey Mike, I’m gonna have to look this up. I’m not sure, but this map night be suitable for multiplayer (although it’s been a while since I’ve been working on it).

He definitely should he’s super talented! Pieter please give us another one! 😀
