  Saqqara
Pharaoh Djoser's Chief Architect has a task for you...
Requirements:
Events:
Hints:
Pharaoh will demand game
meat, money and luxury goods from you here. In return, he'll sent the occasional
shipment of pomegranates. On the subject of pomegranates, here's a post made by one
of the Impressions chaps:
In this mission there is an early gift of Pomegranates that must be
accepted. A refusal will be seen as an insult and eventually cut off your trade with
Selima Oasis, which is the city that sells wood. So you must accept the gift. This is,
admittedly, a very obscure way of doing things and we probably could have designed that
one event better. You may have to revert to an earlier save or, unfortunately, start that
mission over. That one was a bit of an oversight on our part, design-wise, but you can
complete it if you accept the initial gift of pomegranates.
You'll need to get some gold
mines going straight away, and the same goes for hunting lodges. With the money that
comes in from the mines, you won't need to do too much exporting, but any excess pottery
might as well be sold.
You can't overproduce plain
stone in Saqqara - the medium Step Pyramid requires 672 blocks of the stuff, so you're in
for the long haul. Build up your city gradually as you build the pyramid and there
should be no problems.
Once Pharaoh is honoured and
his place in history assured, it's time for your heir to take charge of either Serabit Khadim or Meidum, |
