I started this one by creating two hyena parks, so they'd stop bothering me. The first buildup area is the one near the long strip of goldmines together with the palace that created a wealthy source of money.

Next was the first block near the entry point, where I added the military structures, and the one on the opposite shore to start my trade. Another block was added on the other side to man the docks.

By the time the first call to arms came, I had two academty trained regiments (one of each). I started on my third and got ready for the bedu invasion.
BIG MISTAKE. They came in from behind my palace, which they leveled and I only just managed to get enough police in there to beat of the attack.

I rebuilt and expanded my housing, while at the same time I started on the small pyramid and importing sandstone. While this was going on I started on my palace block, southside first.
As I got enough sandstone I put the mausoleum down and expanded the food colony northwards, colonised the island and it's opposite shore. Including some fortifications and naval yards. The towers helped in sinking the enemy ships and I started reducing my storage yards and upping my linnen production. I also switched to importing papyrus, instaed of exporting as I needed a lot of libraries.

When I reached "perfect scores" I tossed in the last rol of linen.

The only god I fested was Bast.

Biggest mistake? Waiting for the end to add the linen to the gravegoods. I should ahve taken papyrus, as I could import that. The linen was used so fast that I had to switch to stockpile for a while. The cart pushers from the weaver brought the stuff directly to the mortuaries.

The save file is 100 linen short in the grave goods. You may need to switch back to stockpile if you wait too long to give it.
