What a crazy time the past couple of days have been!
I should have updated this page yesterday, but my sleeping schedule has been a mess
since I saw STAR WARS Episode I: The Phantom Menace
at 2 a.m. early Wednesday morning! What a movie, what an experience! 400
people cheering in a packed theater! I went to bed at 6 a.m., then got up and rushed
to meet some other friends for a 2 p.m. showing, took a nap, then met my fiancee' for a 9
p.m. show! I could see it 3 more times!
I
added 6 new cities to the Downloads section, and now my mailbox is empty. Send any
submissions of Cities after May 25th to Angel
Monty's Monkey as I won't be at my computer very often. Last minute preparations
for my wedding next Saturday on May 29th! Then I'm off to the sunny island of St.
Lucia until June 8th!
A couple of days back you'll recall that Angel
Monty's Monkey was having problems with his email...Well, those problems have thankfully
now evaporated, so you can once again send him your
scenarios in the confidence that they will reach him intact.
I
won't be updating here for the next two days - last minute exam revision means that I
can't be doing 3 sites every day. However, I'll still be over at Pharaoh Heaven if you get rodent withdrawl
symptoms <g>. I've asked Angel Draco to do the newsieing over here for
tomorrow and Thursday, but I haven't heard back from him. Perhaps he's too busy
getting ready for his wedding;). Not having any last minute rethinks, I take it
Drac;)? Oh, speaking of Pharaoh, head over to PH for some cool news from SpineMan,
one of the lucky, lucky guys who went to E3. It's looking good!
May 17th - NEWSFLASH!!!
C3 demo for the Mac is out!
Yup, it's true! For all of our Mac visitors
(and I know that we do have some), today is the day that you've been waiting for!
The Mac demo of Caesar III is now available, so you can see what all the fun is
about. Get it here, all 18.9
Megs of it! You'll have to wait for a while before the full version is released,
however - it's being unveiled at the Macworld Expo in New York between 20th and 23rd July.
Still, gives you a chance of getting real good at the first few scenarios before
you get the full game, no? More information about that here.
E3 information should be wnging its way to me from
the Angels who were present (I've spoken to Omnivac and he said that Pharaoh looked
absolutely amazing) within the next few days. However, I've posted the 2 in-game
screenshots that we have so far (even though they are both mockups, and therefore don't
necessarily accurately reflect real life game situations), as well as adding a load of
other stuff. So, head over there and
check it out (oh, and don't forget to vote in the brand new poll either;))
-- More Pharaoh
screenshots will be appearing within the next
few weeks...and these'll be from the alpha version!! Angel Reckless Rodent
May 16th - No apeing
around with Monty
Special delivery from CaesarExpress in the downloads section!
Angel Monty's Monkey has added another 9 scenarios for you to enjoy! Here's a
bit more from MM:
Special note:
Hotmail has recently been giving me problems. (Read: I can't access it.) So, if you've
sent something to me since about the 13th of May, I haven't been able to access it yet. If
this problem persists, I'll publicize another way to send things to me. For those of you
that send things to my heavengames address, that merely forwards to my hotmail address, so
anything sent there will not have been received either. Again, more news in a couple of
days.
While you're here, why not browse the Game Info section, newly updated
by Angel Jayhawk. Oh, and there's loads more to come too - get those binoculars out
and watch out for the hawk!

the only bird of prey
that rodents aren't scared of Angel Reckless Rodent
May 15th - C3 pipped at
the post
It's not true to say that E3 is totally devoid of
Caesar III-related news. However, it's sad news that I have to report today.
C3 lost out to Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri if the Best Strategy Game Of The Year
category in the AIAS awards. Get the full story here.
On
a happier note, I'm pleased to report that the results for the Olympic event known as
Bononia have been announced. Here they are:
1st
Zack Caophil
2nd
MartyParty
3rd
Emperor Tomek
More information on that here.
