Last Friday, Impressions released another .mp3 music file
taken from the game. This time, it's a stirring military march entitled
"Marchis Maximus". It's big (6MB), but well worth it. You can get it
from their download section.
Meanwhile, life
continues in the Caesar III Heaven forum. Today, there's a funny little thread about
who you reckon the dumbest
citizen in your city is. Surely the market lady!? I can't believe anyone else
could be thicker;).
Yesterday, I received a very useful little email attachment
from forumer Bob the Lethargic which will be of use to everyone who is having problems
with the miltary aspect of C3. It can be found in the Strategy Section.
More great news
from our sister site Pharaoh Heaven - head over there to have a quick look at a new little
feature that we've added today:).
Isn't that art beautiful? Well, now's your chance to put your
questions to the man who designed it! In the near future, we've got an interview
with Darrin Horbal, the art director for both Caesar 3 and Pharaoh! Neat, huh?
Well, if you want your questions put to Darrin, then post them in the
forum for Draco to read:).
When you've done that, then it's time to get all theoretical. There's
an interesting (for those who like that sort of thing) mathematical discussion about what
the largest possible city size is. It was started by our very own Pythagoras, Cherub MartyParty, who came up with the hypothesis that the Maximum City Size
is ~46k.
February 25th - Did Ancient
Egyptians have a Heaven?
Now I'm not generally one to harp on about things, but I really can't
believe what a fantastic response we've got from you, the fans, to the opening of Pharaoh Heaven. Thanks to everyone who's
been there, and extra thanks to those of you who have shared your ideas in the forum.
On a forum-related note, the hottest topic over here in the General Forum
at the moment is what Caesar IV
will be like. There's some absolutely fantastic stuff over there, and it's well
worth checking out. There is, however, just one thing that I would say...If you do
share your ideas there, then head over to Pharaoh
Heaven and post them in that forum too - that's where Impresisons are listening to
your every word:).
Moving on to a bit of general HGS info, then you'll all be pleased to know
that Age of Kings Heaven has received it's
long-awaited facelift - head over there and check out the great new look!
With all the excitement over Pharaoh
Heaven (keep heading over there for more exclusives during the next week or so), we
are forgetting the goings-on in the forums over here! There's as much activity in
there as ever, and the way to build
is a hot topic in the Career Path Strategy forum. Head over there to check it out!
Have you visited Pharaoh Heaven yet? No!? Shame
on you! It's the place to be for all the latest news about the follow-up to Caesar
III Heaven. Head over there and check it out - post some messages in the forum too,
since they'll be read by the staff at Impressions, and your comments will be noted.
On a general
HGS note, it would seem that Ripcord, the publishers of the upcoming game Majesty, have
been saved from closure:) Check out the full story here, and then
head over to Majesty Heaven to savour the
good news.
Also on a general Internet note, I noticed yesterday whilst checking out GoneGold that the new beta version of ICQ is out.
Looks like it might be worthwhile! Check it out here.
February 22nd URGENT NEWSFLASH - PHARAOH
HEAVEN IS OPEN!
Do look now because Pharaoh Heaven has swept open its gates!
The much anticipated site has a lot to offer including exclusive information direct from
the developers! Here's a little tidbit: warfare will feature much more prominently in
Pharaoh than it currently does in CIII. CIII fans, you have been heard! Just look at what
that ship was able to do once it got up to ramming speed!
To be sure, others from the CIII H Dream Team will be contributing to
Pharaoh Heaven in good time as well but, rest assured, we plan to keep CIIIH active and
hopping for a long time to come.
News came to me this morning that our very own Angel Draco won
the Moot Court competition which he participated in over the weekend! Well done sir!
Read all about it here.
Dark Angel
communicated with me again - he seemed very excitable and mumbled something about Egypt,
ships, and the Internet. I can only assume that he was yakking on about Pharaoh
Heaven again. Keep it here for information about that site:).
I've received a communication from Dark Angel this
morning. Seems like he's branching out from his normal duties helping Angel Alexander I out with the HGS Main News into
the affairs of the other HGS sites. He whispered "Pharaoh next...".
I couldn't make out the last word, and he'd gone when I asked him to repeat what he'd
said. Oh well...you'll have to stay tuned for information;).
