Designer's Notes
You have the option to build 2 small pyramids, a temple complex to Ptah and a mausoleum, these are not part of the completion criteria, but it would greatly enhance the beauty of your city if they were included.
There is no in-game time limit for this scenario, you may play and improve as much as you wish as long as the CC's are met in the entry sent.
A rise in price for copper occurs each December to remind you to save
the game, copper serves no other purpose in this scenario.
A goal of 999 Palatial Estates is included to prevent the victory screen
and should otherwise be ignored.
This scenario was tested by Lady Mags, my thanks for her help.
