Anyone else love the culture of the greek buildings and the games and absolutely hate the science buildings of the Atlanteans?

I have a problem. I am trying Londinum and once I pass 20000 people, my food infrastructure becomes retarded. I have full granaries everywhere yet homes collapse into tents.

Is there a walker limit?

EDIT: Solved. Disabling Buying Market Ladies' autodistribute as they carry the goods home corrected balancing the distribution load.

I told you I had created a game like Zeus, but with multiplayer, and many of you asked me for the link. I didn’t want to do this without giving you a preview of what I’ve made. So here’s a screenshot of a game session with some friends.

I also recorded a session I played with a friend. You can find it on YouTube. That way, you can make your own opinion.If you’d like to try it out for yourself, my game is available on Steam.

I’m still working on this project. I truly hope you’ll enjoy it and that you’ll see it as a tribute to the excellent game that is Zeus: Master of Olympus.

Let me know if you would be interested for further updates and more videos. It would be my pleasure!

Edit: I completely forgot. If you want to learn more about the game, follow updates, need help playing it, or have suggestions for improvements, I invite you to join the Discord server I created for this purpose.

Hi everyone ! 👋

I've a question for you, fans of city builder of Impression Games. As a regular player of city builder games, I've always wondered what civilisation would have followed that of China in the game ‘Emperor’...

So let me ask you, the players, which civilisation would you have liked to see in the next game?

Personally, I'd have liked to see one of these civilisations:

• Maya
• Aztecs
• Viking
• Sumerian
• Etruscan

I know, that's a lot of civilisations I'd have liked to play in a game from this series. You're going to tell me that ‘other games exist about these peoples’, certainly, but not in the format/gameplay we all like here. 😭

So tell me, which one(s) would you have liked to play?

Thank you in advance for your feedback !

[EDIT 21/11]

There have been some comments about the integrity of this post, so I'd like to reassure you:

• No, this isn't about marketing studies or some ghost operation by studios to find out what you want.
• As far as I'm concerned, I'm a solo developer with a passion for city builders, who's currently working on a city builder, which I hope to release in 2025, that takes place during a historical period that's listed in this post. (But I won't tell you which one).

Finally, thank you for all your feedback.

It's very interesting to know that so many of us have civilisations in common that we would have liked to see in a game at the time.

Hey y'all, do us a favor and flair your threads appropriately. There are a lot of things you can do in Augustus that you can't do in Caesar 3, and we don't want folks looking for vanilla C3 info being confused by people posting Augustus stuff and tagging it with "Caesar 3".

If you're not playing vanilla Caesar 3 or Julius (which is supposed to recreate C3 as accurately as possible), don't use the Caesar 3 flair. Use the Augustus flair instead. Thanks!

I’m so thrilled to learn there’s a whole community of people like me that love Caesar 3. I’ve spent years trying to find a modern equivalent to no avail. On mobile pay to win has ruined everything. I’ve ordered a PC, excited to get back into it. Salutations!

Hi,

I am really struggling with Londinium on Very Hard. This isn’t even the reconquered version, just the regular campaign. I cannot maintain a good budget no matter what I do. It appears that part of the issue is buggy traders.

The trader buying weapons and the one buying vegetables will randomly stop buying for a year. I don’t get a pop up prompt saying some natural disaster occurred either, so there doesn’t seem to be an in game explanation provided to the player.

The trader buying pottery and lumber will buy about 50% of the max despite full warehouses available on January 1. If I stop producing lumber and only sell pottery to maximize profits from that trader, it doesn’t really change my trade profits. I’m lucky to get 35/36 out of 40 traded.

Any advice? Is this a bug or is it a feature of the game difficulty to have traders not trade efficiently?

Hi guys I am back!

I rebuilt the ancient city of Angkor Wat in Cambodia in ROTMK: Emperor. The map can be found here, the map maker is Gweilo2 and all credit of map making goes to him. Check out how closely he mimics the real city with the map maker. Guy is a genius!

In-game map

Real layout of Angkor Wat

I played with the following conditions on Open play. Here are my notes for the win conditions.

1. Steel age: Angkor Wat was built between approximately 1113 and 1150 AD, during the reign of King Suryavarman II of the Khmer Empire. This corresponds to the Steel Age in ROTMK, with paper required for taxation.

2. Very Hard difficulty: Starting funds 24k gold. This is required to set up 2 common housing blocks, weapons production, 2 forts, full agriculture (millets, cabbage, tea, and hemp).

3. The City density is kept at high else the game has so many sprites in the late game, you cannot send out armies to conquer your rival cities.

4. The mood of the rival cities is Aggressive. So expect attacks on Year 2 itself! I managed to get 2 cavalry forts running with 2x horses in each to beat the first invasion. I could not man the fortifications as my harvest was coming in and that was far more important in the long run.

5. Disaster frequency was kept to "none" for the following reason: there are 3 kinds of disasters, famine, floods, and earthquake. IF not kept to "none" they might trigger despite keeping all your ancestor gods happy. The first 2 are manageable but earthquake is a game ender (although there is a way to minimize the damage).

6. The 3 wonders are the following : Splendid Temple (mimics Preah Khan Temple), Temple complex (mimics Angkor Wat), and finally Large palace (mimics Suryavarman II's palace).

Final city had 2 common housing blocks using my patented (its not patented) block

My (un) patented common housing block with 49 houses

I had some pretty epic fights in the late game as I went on to subjugate all cities or ally with them. You are either with us or against us! It was super fun. Hope you will like the pictures and leave your thoughts.

I'm a huge fan of "Zeus: Master of Olympus" and classic city-builders. I played them a lot as a kid, and I've always dreamed of being able to play them in multiplayer with my friends. All this time, I hoped that one day a game like this would come out. But after 20 years of waiting, I finally decided to create it myself.

Working alone, I finished an initial version some time ago, and now I can play it with my friends via Steam. I can't even imagine what could be achieved with a small team working on it. That would be amazing! Yet, even now, with several city-builders about to be released, none of them offer a multiplayer mode.

What do you think? Would you also like to see more games of this kind with a multiplayer option?

Why is my imported food not getting to granaries? It stays in Warehouse forever. Sometimes cartpusher gets some small amount and thats it.

Granaries are almost empty and set to accept goods.

Closest granary is 10 tiles away to the Soith. Next granary 19 tiles away to the West.

No mods like Julius or Augustus used. Base game.

Im trying to figure out a way to moddify ingame sprites. Does anyone know a proper tool? Ive only got Pecunia Sgreader but it only allows to read and download png sprites, but cant upload them back. Thanks in advance!

It is said that if there is Gov’s residence and the City Mint is minting coin, I can get some personal money out of it. Can I see how much exactly?

The sound clips will replay over and over, the music restarts after a few seconds over and over, a lot of the animations don't work. Any way to fix this without losing my save data?

In a map I'm creating I had four landslide zones (marked in pink). I placed a landslide point (the flag) on the landslide zone I wished to trigger, but in-game while playtesting a different landslide zone was triggered.

Weird, but ok. I'll just put some rocks in the other landslide zones to disable them, I thought to myself (at least the pink zones disappear when I do).

But no, in-game I still get the wrong landslide zone triggering for some reason, even though in the editor the only viable landslide zone is where I have put the landslide point, which does nothing apparently.

How do landslides actually work?

Most of my warehouse have a narrow function, eg. accept Timber and Furniture but nothing else. Every time I want to set up a warehouse like that I have to go though all the materials after each other and set it to "don't accept". Is there some hidden hotkey etc. to just set everything to "don't accept"?

So I've played Pharaoh, Zeus/Poseidon and Emperor many many times but I never played Caesar III. Been browsing here for a few weeks and I've seen a lot of mentions of 'Augustus' and 'Reconquered'

Can someone run through the recommendations for a first time player in terms of mods, etc? I just bought it on GOG.

Also while we're at it, do any of the other games I mentioned have mods that are generally recommended?

Thanks in advance!

As the title says does anyone have any guide on how to install custom adventures from zeus heaven?

I have tried searching online or youtube but i just cannot find any
