Story
CityBuildingContests.net proudly presents All That Glistens: a supreme test of your ability to balance industrial development with the needs of your citizens.
In this contest, you play a young leader entrusted with the task of developing the city of Elis into an industrial powerhouse, producing sculpture needed for the ambitious sanctuary construction projects taking place all over Greece.
However, you will also need to provide for the physical and spiritual needs of at least some of your people. For this, you will need to import a number of commodities to supplement your meager natural resources.
Rules
All entries must meet the following completion criteria at the time of submission:
- 800 people in Townhouse or better *
- Sanctuary to Apollo *
- Treasury of 20000 Dr *
- Save in December AD 7
Completion criteria marked with an asterisk are also episode goals.
The valid entries will then be separated according to the following winning criteria:
- Sculpture in storage
- Population
The second winning criteria will only be used to separate entries that are not split by the first winning criteria.
Designer's Notes
Remember to save your game every December. An increase in the price of Urchins (a non-tradeable commodity) is scripted to occur every December as a reminder.
An additional episode goal (one person in residence or better) is included in the starting positions. This goal cannot be met and should be ignored. You should instead concentrate on improving your winning criteria in the time available.
You will face at least one invasion during the course of this scenario.
The submitted game must be saved in December of AD 7. If when your game is loaded by the judges, it is the start of AD 8, your submission will be invalid.
