Author's Description:
Miletos:
One of the less pleasant of the colonies I have built thus far. The Kraken shows up very early and wrecks all of your sea trade, leaving you reliant on silver mining and taxation for cash. I only built the two sanctuaries necessary to summon Perseus, although in retrospect it would have made more sense to build either the Gates of Hades or the Grove of Dionysus first.
Marble for the sanctuaries was obtained by a combination of begging and gifts. Some additional fleece was obtained by begging as well. After completion of the two sanctuaries, Perseus arrived and flattened the Kraken. Subsequent gifts of marble were sold, generating, together with wood sales and mined silver, a rather tidy profit.
I ran away when I had re-established a healthy bank balance.
