Description:
After Meidum, monument building will never be the same for me.
I have placed an interim save just after the first 12 of 30 levels are completed (month 94) to demonstrate the technique that I used to build the monument. The next 6 levels require 18 loads of stone each. So, I have supplied 9 masons, 18 work camps and 2 carpenters, which is optimum for my set up. Now, if you are expecting to see a nice column of sleds head on up to complete each level, NOT! These sleders have attitude, they make b-lines (pardon the name association) to finish each level. (The month 94 demo does have one hitch; you'll have to command the armies about 9 months into the demonstration, but what's a demo without some hands on. Otherwise you can pretty much just watch a pretty good example of quick masonary.) I have also implemented two "Cherub Brugle" storage yards for payrus and linen distribution.
