Hi,

Ages ago on the PC i used to play a really good RTS game. All i can remember is this:

-Set in the distant past.
-Had a transport water transportation system.
-Also had a bread/yeast building for food.
-Had to build pavements/walkways.
-Very rarely got attacked by other players.
-Dont remember it changing/shifting time periods, although could be wrong.

Please help ocuk!

Had a transport water transportation system.

a wut? lol

haha doh didnt spot that.

Yeah it was like you had to use a tall structure to carry water across from a source into the city.

Settlers rings a bell, but after looking at the screenshots on google, doesnt look quite as i remember. :confused:

It would have been around the 2003-2005 time period iirc.

Age of empires maybe ?

Just a wild guess cant actually remember anything about it

Was it set in Roman times? Could have been Caesar

I actually think I remember this game , I remember an rts where you had to distribute water around the city via aqueducts. Be damned if I can remember the name of it though.

Not one of the Caesar series was it? Caesar IV maybe?

That's it!

Ceasar. Cant remember which one it would be. Is the series still going?

Caesar 3 probably, I loved that game too!

If it was around 2003-2005 it would have been Caesar 4.

Caesar 3 was released in 1998 (according to the box on my shelf

).

with little pretorian guards, city engineers firebrigade etc? little dissasters and building collapses etc

temples and statues for the 5 'gods'

I think I've still got that kicking about somewhere

it was the third one.

I can remember the original coming out, thats old for you

i would guess at Caesar 3! Although everyone knows Pharaoh was a million times better
