You managed to offend many Smyrniots and Magnesians in that single sentence. Manisa and İzmir are demographically so different (source: experience, I live in the latter and work in the former). They are also geopgraphically separated by a pair of mountain passes (one in the northeast-southwest orientation, the other in east-west).

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know that.

I was just trying to estimate the towns in the same way it's done in-game (Oslo for example). Notice that not every company have their depots within "legal" bounds of the city they have.

They mean that Manisa wouldn't necessarily be a marked city on the map, but it would have its depots assigned to İzmir. There would still be road signs saying that you're in Manisa.

Arvidsson-Källqvist wrote: 09 Jun 2022 11:10 I think something along the likes of this would be a realistic guess. It could include 25 cities in total, which is generally the nr. of cities SCS have in their DLCs, 11 in Greece (inc. 2 on Crete and 1 in Rodos), 11 in western Turkey and 3 in Cyprus. And it could be called something like an Eastern Mediterranean DLC. Also it's overall size would be roughly the same as Iberia, maybe even a bit smaller. I would be pretty satisfied with it.
I think this idea may be the closest to the final DLC, implying Ankara will be its eastern border.

Like I said - I can agree to such setup, but in the end, SCS will have the last word on this.

So I've been looking at Istanbul more lately and trying to get an idea of what road would get us to Asia.

The O1 / Bosphorous Bridge is restricted to trucks. The O7 / Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge is not, and neither is the O2 / E80 / Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge. Based on the roads they brought with RttBS, I think the O2/E80 is the more likely one since it gets us to O4 more directly and I don't think they have the space to represent the O7 properly unless they use the Black Sea. But the O7 bridge is one of the tallest in the world so it'd be cool to see it in game.

Can't you see it? Greece will be launched as a separate dlc in the 10th anniversary event, Of course, if they want to join Turkey and make Aegean dlc that's a thing in the future.

Any more details about this?

There are no details because it's a joke.

Why SCS would release a DLC with a single country with at most 13 or 14 cities (in a very optimistic prediction) and less than half of the physical size of the previous single country DLCs?
