Entry for the SimSettlements.com March 2021 City Plan Contest.
Tired of being eaten by marauding Mole Rats while you sleep? Need somewhere to safely retreat when Raiders come calling? Red Rocket Foundry might be the home for you! Featuring a defensively-planned rooftop living area, put Old-World concrete and steel between you and any threats during the night. Starting with only the basics, this city plan adds more advanced building plans as it levels up. Fully developed, this site will provide copious amounts of machine parts to support your city networks as advanced buildings require more advanced maintenance items. Supports 8 settlers (including mayor) at level 0, 13 @ level 1, 18 @ level 2, and 21 @ level 3.
