Some of our governors have a real talent for relating their trials and tribulations in the Empire. Join Paulus the 1st for his account of disaster averted in By a gnat's you-know-what in Luteita in the Game Help forum.
And forumers need your help. Darth Bane is asking for suggestions to name his future business endevor and there are also plans afoot to celebrate the Casear III Heaven upcomming anniversary .. all in the Community Forum.
September 28, 2000 — Gustavia finds Girl Gladiator?
My latest Web Wandering uncovered this speculation that the first known burial site of a female gladiator might have been discovered. Archaeologists from the Museum of London have determined to their satisfaction the female remains in the burial at the Southwark, England site includes artifacts commonly associated with gladiators.
hmmm... Apparently, there has been other archaeological evidence of female gladiators, I found mention of an inscription in Pompeii which refers to women in the arena, something I wasnt aware of
You can read about it here in this National Geographic link and a bit more about it from Discovery.com
Caesar Alan is asking for beta testers for his new Scenario Venta Belgarum.
I wish you to build a regional capital at Venta Belgarum, to control the Southern and Western approaches to Londinium. The locals are not, shall we say, overly impressed with the prospect of Roman rule. You will change that, by making Venta Belgarum a shining example of all things Roman, attaining high levels of Prosperity and Culture.
The terrain is, shall we say, a trifle inconvenient. Steep hills rise up in all directions, and groundwater is beyond the reach of all but the deepest wells. You should rely on the river to supply all your water. Despite this, the surrounding area is rich in raw materials, with ample arable land, an extensive floodplain, and sizeable forests.
You should remember that we remain at war. Although conquered, the locals will not necessarily be cooperative. Perhaps you will be able to persuade them of Rome's benefits. As the campaign in the North continues, I may also require reinforcements and supplies at the front line.
hmmm.. If you wish to give it a go, you can find the thread in Game Help, here.
Governor catilina started an Open Lugdunum Competition a while back and appears Cherub Brugle was inspired to take a totally different approach to that city to be known as Lyons. See his account and a great screen shot of Lugdunum Cliff Dwellers in Game Help. A novel solution and some pretty impressive ratings, too.
there has been an Angel in the Dark for the last 24 hours, as my DSL and net access just totally died yesterday. It was awful, but I did get caught up on some errands and reading. Really happy this morning to awake and find it was all fixed
Cruising around to see what I missed I find Angel Zen has posted a Feedback Request on some possible forum format fixes in the Community Forum. Let him know what you think about the new proposals.
