A New Dawn
A New Dawn is the first map in After Inc. As the first map of the game, it doesn't have winter or Zombies.
Geography[edit | edit source]
The map is mostly flat terrain, with a river crossing from North to South West with two crossings. The settlement area is bordering the river. Alongside that, the map has a total of 28 areas, with 12 grasslands, seven mountains, five cities, two swamps and two cities. All areas (except for the settlement area and cities) produce their default respective resources by their classifications. However, one mountain area produces Food (via sheep) instead of Stone, while two areas serve as a way to show the game's plot (a ruined settlement and an abandoned Z-Com fortress).

It's time to Rebuild | We've stayed in the bunker as long as we could, but the power has died and our supplies are almost gone. We've got to head outside and build a settlement in order to survive. |
|
Welcome to [Settlement]! | This is the perfect place to build a thriving settlement. There are no zombies left on the region and it's fully protected from harsh winters. Our first priority should be scouting the area for ressources. |
Random popups[edit | edit source]
- An Orderly Evacuation
There are no signs of conflict or struggle in this old town. People seem to have left voluntarily before the Necroa Plague hit. They left a lot of things behind - our scavengers will do well here. - We Are Not the Only Ones!
An ancient newspaper talks about survival bunkers being built throughout the country. This means we might be able to find other people out there. Morale significantly increased. - Ancient Motorway Found
The remains of a major road can be seen here. It's been reclaimed by nature but it' still allows faster travel. Where does it lead... - An Old Ruined Settlement
Looks like their emergency bunker didn't last long enough for the Zombies to rot. They had to build on the surface, but didn't last long. Makes you realise how lucky we are... - Ruined Z Com Outpost
Z Com was meant to save the world from the Zombies... Anyways, there's nothing useful here, they must have relocated after building our old survival bunker. - Old Map Discovered
We found a map in the glove box of a rusty car - good job the driver didn't trust sat nav! We've already explored these areas but it will make good kindling. - Bicycles Found
An overturned truck full of well preserved bicycles. now we just need to remember how to ride them! Costs less to Explore and Claim areas with a Motorway in. - Hut Found
We've uncovered an old decaying hut in the middle of the woods. it's boarded up and we can't see in it. What should we do? - Old Z Com Relocation Plan
Our people found some old files in the ruins. It looks like Z Com made everyone leave their homes to avoid attracting Zombies to the region. Wonder if it was voluntary..
