We are in 35 BC. Rome wants you to build a port, in the Roman Province of Hispania, on the Atlantic Ocean side. This city (Gades, presently Cadix, on the south-western coast of Spain), is not really new. A long time ago it was a colony of Phoenicians, then became the allies of Carthago. Then at the end of the Punic wars, in 200 BC., Gades "chose" to be Roman. You must build a new city in this place, and establish Rome brilliant civilization to this remote corner of the Empire. This region is very rich, except for timber. Open a few trade routes, and you can quickly build a prosperous city. Actually, a few Iberian tribes refuse Roman administration - nothing is easy and definite in this Empire... Bring peace and get prosperous ! Ave Caesar !
Tricks: As usual in desert, build many prefectures enough to prevent fires. First make money by exporting: wine, weapons, oil... Also quickly build at least one trained legion. Enemies will come from North and North-East. You should not need many walls, you can use natural defenses like plateaus. You may build everything you want, even an hippodrome. Primary food can be fish. Don't rely too much on your trade by sea: storms are frequent in the Atlantic Ocean. Oh, I forgot: your governor will certainly appreciate a villa with view on the ocean...
