    I CANNOT ! I started playing this game when it came out in 1999. My Father pirated it for me. This was the level that made me give up. I had hit all the required points. I even reduced my population down to 3500 EXACTLY! I was so frustrated. I gave up. At the age of 32 in 2021 I started to play again and came to the same issue all those years later... I cursed the damn game, remembering that I just assumed 'cause my Dad had pirated it that it was a glitch I could not overcome. Encountering it after buying it just pissed me off further. Until now. I had 1000 papyrus in my stock, and I had not realized the tomb needed provisions because I had the 19/19 score....HOW! I had playing all the custom maps where this was required!! Sweet ever loving Jesus (says the atheist) but thank you. THANK YOU!!!! On to level 12 I go 23 years later at the age of 33... FUCK YES... also feeling like a dope but jaysus I was a lonely 10 year old, this game gave me such joy. and apparently still am that silly 10 year old girl. I am grand with that though :) Seriously, i feel like I accomplished something for that girl...Really, really, thank you and so much love and good vibes are on to you from Ireland.

    For anyone doing this scenario now, you MUST accept the early gift of pomegranates from Pharaoh. If you don't it will cut of the trade with Selima oasis, wich is the only city that sells wood and without it, it would be a very short pyramid.

    I imagine he missed this but the advisor at the beginning did mention embalming the pharaoh and a tomb of granite, so those were the hints that you need more than just the structure of the pyramid.

    As before, I'll just edit in things to the comment as I watch the video. [another long comment again! Because the comments are long, there's a summary at the very end for simpler reading] :)
    As an early note, this is the last tutorial mission of the game, so now you are going to need to use the knowledge you've accumulated, as well as the comments you get from your fans, to improve to become the best player of the game at Hard. :)
    10:30 Apart from Mastaba's, every monument requires Carpenter's Guild's (you probably work this out by end of video :P), they build ramps so the workers can reach the top of the monument :)
    13:15 The most efficient method to build pyramids quickly is to have lots of quarries and little storage yard's. In my playthrough, I usually had no more than 2-3 SY's of stone (later on, as the monument size grows, I built more)
    17:13 / 24:50 Why build 6 temples? You could have gotten by with 3 temples to Ptah, 2 each to the others and 10 shrines to Ptah, with 7 each to the others. You are still building tons of temples, you don't need to do that with Pharaoh. Build less temples (always ensuring the patron god has one extra) and more shrines. Less space wasted, improved desirability and god appeasement ;)
    20:35 Again, you should not be building two housing blocks. Build one, evolve it as high as possible (if possible, get them up to Fancy Residence), then after you've maxed out population in that area, consider another block. As you go through the missions, prosperity will get higher as a target and this can only be reached by getting the housing up higher [in fact, a later mission actually forces you to have Palatial Estates, the highest housing type you can build, so it's imperative to build smaller amounts of housing and evolving them higher :)].
    23:11 As you worked out, hunting lodges don't always provide enough food. It's a good food source early on in the mission, but you should really be mass producing pomegranates (if you aren't aware, there's a food priority order system in Pharaoh, so pomegranates are actually favoured over Game Meat [Game is actually at the bottom of the list]) as it would be producing much much more for the people.
    28:15 At the start of all missions from this point, you should scout out any hyena's/crocodile's/hippo's on the map and box them in as there's a very high chance you'll come across them now. At this point, you can use small statues to perform this, but later you'll get access to Walls, which function the same way. As a note, on military maps containing hyena's, killing them all will stop them spawning, but this is not possible on croc's / hippo's.
    31:44 The reason, as you eventually worked out (after 3 minutes xD), is because you didn't dispatch any grave goods. This is a common mistake by nearly everyone who plays Pharaoh for the first time and reaches this mission, so you aren't alone (the game doesn't actually specifically tell you this, you have to work it out for yourself), especially since previous monuments didn't require grave goods (this is all part of the historical accuracy of the game).
    However, you need to know about grave goods almost immediately, because every mission from this point which includes a pyramid or mastaba [obelisks and sun temples don't require them] as a monument WILL include grave goods of some description. The monument rating includes the monuments you build AND all grave goods the game wants. "Necessary burial provisions" are all the items you were looking at on the Overseer of Monuments (in this case, you need to give away pottery, wood, linen, papyrus and granite): I can understand why this confuses you because this was not something that C3 ever talked about and wasn't mentioned in earlier missions: this is particularly the reason why a player from C3 finds it hard to move to Pharaoh, but you will definitely pick up on all these little things as you progress.
    == Some Notes ==
    1. That dock area might have worked out better being completed disconnected from the main city, and using the SY where pottery was being delivered as a "getting" SY to provide the pottery for the people.
    2. Scribal Schools are going to become very important to mission success later in the game. Instead of placing two housing blocks and keeping the houses low level, build just one and evolve it really high (as I mentioned above) before building more. It actually would be possible to get 3500 in one housing block of this design when they're all evolved to Fancy Residence.
    3. Again, wages should ALWAYS be matching what the kingdom pays. If the wages you pay are any lower or higher than the kingdom value, this is BAD and WILL cause major problems and lowered city sentiment, none of which is good for a city. Any time an event tells you that wages have fallen or risen, act on it immediately (it's virtually a demanding request from the game).
    4. 21:40 This event is a bizarre tradition of Sierra games (you probably saw it in C3 with the Iron Mines). This is why you shouldn't rely on gold mines to fund income, just in case you either have this event collapsing them or (as you will soon find out) there is very little ore for it to be meaningful (most missions from this point will only have puny amounts of metal bearing ore for gold/copper and most of the time, it'll have to be directed to copper)
    Overall, you are getting there, but still a few things that need sorted out, specifically with housing blocks and not evolving them high enough. How you built the city at the start (drawing out two areas of housing, but only filling in one and getting it up to Fancy Residence) is how you should be starting all missions from this point as it will help you out in the long run (especially in maps which are very small or don't have a lot of space, which you will see over time, especially with the next mission ;))

      @SuperSajuuk 10 років тому +16

      Dr_Palace So? I'm not gonna make about 10 small comments when I can write it all in one. That's the benefit of Google+ comments for youtube.
      Plus, I give a clear warning at the start that it's a long comment. I'm not flooding Zakh's feed with a ton of comments, it's unnecessary and he's less likely to read it (he actually responded to a much longer comment than this on a previous video)
      Also, these long comments are mainly for Zakh's benefit so that he knows where to improve on the next mission, but I make them public so that others who watch this video can find the tips useful. :)

    • @countingtls
      @countingtls 10 років тому +1

      Zakh's current layout can only support a maximum population of 2154 per block (23 2x2 fancy residences and 2 1x1 spacious apartments), so he does need the second block.
      And remember, the patron god needs twice amount of worshiping than others. Magic numbers : 750, 375, 187 population coverage. Normal temple, Normal shrine/Patron temple, Patron shrine.

    • @SuperSajuuk
      @SuperSajuuk 10 років тому +1

      ***** The fact he was able to reach 3600 with a bunch of spacious apartments makes me question whether the size of the housing block is the same or if it keeps changing (if it's just a little bit longer, he could get more). Again, as I said, better to evolve a housing block fully before building in another: in this case, he could have gone for one large block and then a smaller block to reach the goal. ;)
      Re: gods: I know, but I've always been able to play with just giving an extra temple and 3 shrines more to the patron god: building 6 temples each and no shrines doesn't help though.

    • @countingtls
      @countingtls 10 років тому +1

      Zakh's current 12x20 block evolved to fancy residence from spacious apartments can only house 368 extra people. No where near enough. A block has to be at least 12x34 large to encompass 3500+ pop, not be very feasible for most map. (and not stable I might add, due to walkers can't finish the inner loop)
      For gods, a city size of 3600, full coverage for normal gods is 5 temples, and 10 for patrons, but a coverage around 50% can keep gods from angry, 6 temples each is over kill for normal god, but keep patron at displease. I think Zakh just need to spend extra labors due to mass unemployment, and his outer loop has enough space to waste. Your way is also probably ok, if you can keep normal gods full coverage, extra one for patron can always keep it above 50% (even without festival)

    Always make fence around hunting spot with a small entrance, build 1 hunting hut and place a yeard next to it (is very important to move hunting meat to it as quickly as possible!). and not to far granary with "take everything meat".
    also the building can be used to make a fence or just use the garden
    why?
    - the hunting animal does not run and 1 arrow kills it, ...usually does not miss: D.
    - 1 hunt hut is enough for 1 hunt spot. (max 2, but...)
    - about 7800 pieces of meat can be hunted during the year! (food for ~ 2,600 people)

      Kingdom Favour will auto drop within time (after all Pharaoh's requests aren't that common to maintain it on steady level) so those gifts are good way to keep Pharaoh in good mood toward you ( lavish gifts usually give +10 favour) however be careful not to set up too high personal salary to avoid PR problems so to speak ^_-).
