I would like all of the Caesar III fans to start sending in things so I
can make some more guides for this wonderful game. One of the things I
would like is for people to start sending is some attached files with a
city or city section drawing. For example, use MS Paint and make some
drawings of what a good city or part of a city would look like. Remember
to make all the same size buildings look the same. For example, if the
building's size is 4X4, make all 4X4 buildings the same size, please.
You could color code each type of building if you'd like. Make a key
that is EASY to read and understand. You could also just use Notebook
or any other type of Word Processor and make a city blueprint too. You
could use letters representing each block of the building and dashes or
whatever for roads, be creative. An example is below.
A Senate could look like this (5X5):
SSSSS
SSSSS
SSSSS
SSSSS
SSSSS
You should get the general idea. Make sure all drawings are in an
attached e- mail file. I'd be nice if they were in a WinZip File. If
you'd like to know where to go to download this, go to
http://www.download.com. You should be able to find it without too much
trouble.
I'm not going to write a single Strategy Guide or Walkthrough for Caesar
III. Instead, I'm going to write several smaller guides for the game.
Each will be about a certain aspect of the game. For example, this one
is about the buildings and structures of the game. Other guides to
follow will contain, once again, different things. They aren't
available yet. You may notice that I'm not containing any tips in the
aspect- specific guides. I am going to write a guide containing nothing
but tips, with references to the guides, so you'll understand what I'm
talking about. There is already a great Walkthrough at GameFaqs, so you
should check it out as well. It's done by Adar.
