Something else - limestone is cheap resourse to export. In this mission you can export pottery, linen and even bricks (just to stabilize the economy before construction of the mastabas). If you upgrade houses to levels on which are require scribal schools or second type of food you can get really good money from taxes ;) I passed the mission soon and this was my strategy - export pottery first, limestone after this, upgrade the houses to levels on which pottery is required, tax them, start the linen industry (more exports) and when my finance get about 5000Db, start beer industry, upgrade houses as much as possible, get more people boom the bricks industry, start mastabas and buy all needed for burial provisions. No unemployment problems, no money problems, no population problems and I have so much space even to place temple complex to Ra and make lavish fastival after lavish festival. Difficulty - normal :) Your videos are really great - I hope you will continue to the last and most difficult missions :)
Great video! You've pretty much got everything nailed for completing the missions, though I personally would have just went with the three housing blocks in the center and western islands (the 3 square blocks) and not built the rectangular block and evolved the housing to at least Spacious Apartment, though it would've needed barley imports to achieve. I definitely liked the idea of centralising the industry, that worked out quite well imo, though I would've done them in blocks (excepting the limestone industry) for tidyness. Also, the sandstone material has no use, presumably it was to be used in the mission but was cut and the map wasn't updated with the change.
Caesar III was my childhood and I always wanted to know about Pharaoh (It was advertised in a pamplet in the back of hte Caesar III CD), but never got into it. So, I'm really great to see people upload Let's Plays of them even in 2015! Great inrastructure and nice to listen to. Thanks for this! Happy Holidays.
Water-Demons are destroyed by towers??!! Nice! 20 years later and I'm still learning xD Thanks for the video, I was worried because I need to choose between On and Iunet and I like to drag the most I can on the cities to build my family belongings (it helps in future missions as well), and I also like to have more than the Pharaoh himself (being able to fulfill all the request and have +200k Db and more incoming gives me a sense of accomplishing better than completing the actual mission xD). On and Iunet seems to be easy maps with 2 drawbacks each: - In Iunet we have increasing difficulty raids, which makes it worse the more time I spent there, and you cannot have some elementary resources for your city to evolve (line or beer, don't remember if both or just one of them, and papyrus), which makes it impossible to have gorgeous residential buildings. - In On we have a lack of space for big blocks, especially for nobbles with all the statues and stuff (kinda disappointing to me now that I finally have a Senet house -.-), and the m@th3rf*kling Water-demons everywhere, that toggle the invincibility cheat code every time they go in the water, no army, no archers, no battleship, no Seth, no nothing could stop them there! UNTIL... I found your video and found out their kryptonite, JAVALINS!! Those dam Towers can kill everything and are almost indestructible (so far in the story). Oh! And it lacks good monuments too (Mastabas are ugly -.-) Thank you! Now I can play On without many worries. Maybe I can raise my personal belongings to 30k-40k this time (I'm at 20k) xD
I love when your cat interferes XD Mine always want to sleep in front of the keyboard when we are using the PC. I love these Sierra city building videos, they remind me very good moments thanks for bringing them black. I have seen all the Caesar videos, now Pharao's, can't wait to watch Zeus and Emperor.
Hey glad you're enjoying it! I haven't played much Zeus yet but I've done quite a bit in Emperor. I'm also now redoing my Caesar 3 series just in case you missed it.
This game really brings back old memories. The number of times I asked myself "should I sleep or play for another Pharaoh year" is huge. Looking forward to seeing how you do in the future Zakh. Some irritating and long missions lie ahead, with the very next one taking some time to complete. :)
When my mom played this a police officer tried to stop a hippo from eating the people but the hippo killed him I think that’s the level with the mean hippos.
I was struggling for hours with this one, but I don't think it's that hard after I started focusing on selling the plain stone first. The order of requests seems to be secret. Of course it would have helped if knew that I could sell pottery.
Great work Zack! Papyrus would garanteed you more cash in the start and remember that you can Save some workers from the ferry landings in the start, because they don't need any fire/architect post.. However Amazing video 😊
+Nicola Ammannati I agree, though the papyrus is a long distance from everything else. If Zakh exported papyrus, that would have resulted in two industrial areas. I would have recommended linen, since it's needed for the culture rating/burial provisions and it sells for more iirc. :P
Everything seemed to be working out for me on this mission but then exporting goods suddenly stopped giving me money, and I'm not sure why? I had tons of pottery and they weren't being sold, and then stopped exporting at all. And then even if I was exporting Limestone, the balance was negative and I started losing money until it wasn't viable anymore.
I am just taking a look to take a quick idea of how to solve that level. ahah. And I am wondering how aren´t you interrupted and brought to attention that your road is interrupted and a certain area will stagnate.
First of all : Great videos, I really appreciate your effort and enthusiasm you put in these nuggets of old but good games. I have the problem, that the trade route for luxuries has been closed, thus i can't finish my mastaba )=. Do you know if its gonna get reopened again ?
For me, this was one of the hardest missions. I had to play this on easy, because there have allways been a bug with a water trade. One ship simply blocked my dock and whole trading was doomed.
One thing Zakh, and please don't get me wrong. Too much scrolling the map, through moving your mouse around, is getting me seasick. Can you please limit that? Thanks!
zack thnxx alot am sherif frm Alexandria,Egypt and am quite worry cuz i ll finish on(heliopolis) today or tomorrow so plzz upload the next video and aloso thnxx alot for relieving my country's history
GamerZakh yes it sorta did. It must have been due to rafic or something. It;s better now and mission 3 is doing fine soo good. Thank you for your concern.
+ss p - When a walker spawns they will randomly wander down roads for a certain number of tiles (around 40-ish). At intersections they will take a random path, so a roadblock means they can't wander down a certain way. So in a block design with roadblocks, every time a walker spawns it's guaranteed that they will pass every house on that block, which makes your city much more stable. Walkers with destinations, such as a market lady going to a granary, can walk through roadblocks.
i tried this heliopolis mission today, saqqara is not available for trade in my game why omg? XD i cant get luxuries for my monuments to dispatch goods
Hi, thank you very much, because I could to finish this game 💃 please do subtitles, because I don’t know English and I need to watch your movies many times (3-5 times🤣). I hope soon I’ll understand all videos 😂😂👍
You have good game mechanics and an actual desire to learn new things as compared to 99% other gamers on UA-cam.I also like your accent, where are you from?
The proper police placement didn't last long. FailFish You should have used a lot more the different overlays as that would pretty much help to fix everything you weren't doing too good with. Do you stream in twitch by the way? :)
How the hell you mannage to get people work in the mines and etc. You only have like 4 small huts that's 20 people, i always get not enougth labor stuff.....
+Илья Розанов - You don't need a lot of people living near industry. You just need a couple houses to provide access to the worker pool then build your population elsewhere. If you're short on workers build another housing block. If it says poor access to workers add a couple more huts near the industry.
Tech Question - I am desperate so I thought I would ask you and other subscribers for help. Pharaoh started freezing at the very end of this mission. I have to do a hard reboot to my rig. I am running in XP- service pack 3, hard DVD bought 15 odd years ago , patch installed. I have tried other sites but to no avail. I am one point away from prosperity, with a population of 5141, mastaba finished, 47545 deben. I was removing some tent population and wham! the game froze. Any ideas ?
Hmm it's always hard to tell with these as the old Impressions games have a lot of bugs in them, including freezes. I don't know of any solutions, but you could try buying the GOG version of the game. You can copy your saves over and they should work fine. Windows XP is pretty old though and it could be anything from a hardware issue to Windows glitching out.
waiting for you to try thinis (the civil war mission) on hard difficulty level zach :P A whole week of trying and still havent been able to do it. Lets see how you fare!
"Let's see what we else we can sell" *mouses over papyrus* "Hmm, not much" *mouses over linen" "Ooh, pottery" *keeps focusing on the 2 cheapest exports on the map* You make me an angry person sometimes
+Sleelan - Haha! I don't normally go for linen and I try to think of what can be exported and used to evolving houses too. If pottery is a possible export I tend to go for that because it can get me a nice boost in population.
@@GamerZakh totally, its funny you mention it each mission. I'm watching through the playlist and on mission 19, glad I found the channel via your Dune 2 video. To find pharaoh as well was a cherry on top
zack after on i entered into the civil war between the ruler of the north and their capital henen-nesw and thn i entered the middle kingdom am faster lol thnxxx alot some hard missions to go really hard naw am plying in sawu on the shores of the red sea
You can open a trade route to Saqqara at the start of the mission, so what probably happened was there was a request that you missed that closed the route but I can't remember. Skimming my video, it looks like the route never closed. Do you have saves from throughout your play? If yes, you can reload to when the trade route was open and see what happened.

There's also papyrus to export. That was the second thing I started producing for money after limestone.
It's the holiday season. I know many of you would enjoy a bit of city-building.
I certainly wasn't expecting Pharaoh. Time for me to buckle down and watch 44 minutes of awesome building! :D
Great video! You've pretty much got everything nailed for completing the missions, though I personally would have just went with the three housing blocks in the center and western islands (the 3 square blocks) and not built the rectangular block and evolved the housing to at least Spacious Apartment, though it would've needed barley imports to achieve.

watching in 2020/2021 would highly disagree haha!
Please never stop these series!!! I want to watch till Cleopatra's last mission Actium!
A tear dropped down my cheek when i saw Pharaoh is up :D
Finally back on Pharaoh videos! I nearly gave up hope!
I have been playing Pharaoh since 2003. Absolutely my favorite.
Caesar III was my childhood and I always wanted to know about Pharaoh (It was advertised in a pamplet in the back of hte Caesar III CD), but never got into it. So, I'm really great to see people upload Let's Plays of them even in 2015! Great inrastructure and nice to listen to. Thanks for this! Happy Holidays.
This is the sort of content I love on your channel.
Water-Demons are destroyed by towers??!! Nice!
20 years later and I'm still learning xD
Thanks for the video, I was worried because I need to choose between On and Iunet and I like to drag the most I can on the cities to build my family belongings (it helps in future missions as well), and I also like to have more than the Pharaoh himself (being able to fulfill all the request and have +200k Db and more incoming gives me a sense of accomplishing better than completing the actual mission xD).
On and Iunet seems to be easy maps with 2 drawbacks each:
- In Iunet we have increasing difficulty raids, which makes it worse the more time I spent there, and you cannot have some elementary resources for your city to evolve (line or beer, don't remember if both or just one of them, and papyrus), which makes it impossible to have gorgeous residential buildings.
- In On we have a lack of space for big blocks, especially for nobbles with all the statues and stuff (kinda disappointing to me now that I finally have a Senet house -.-), and the m@th3rf*kling Water-demons everywhere, that toggle the invincibility cheat code every time they go in the water, no army, no archers, no battleship, no Seth, no nothing could stop them there! UNTIL... I found your video and found out their kryptonite, JAVALINS!! Those dam Towers can kill everything and are almost indestructible (so far in the story). Oh! And it lacks good monuments too (Mastabas are ugly -.-)
Thank you! Now I can play On without many worries. Maybe I can raise my personal belongings to 30k-40k this time (I'm at 20k) xD
Nice one Zakh, the graphics in Full HD still look gorgeous/colorful today.
I love when your cat interferes XD
Mine always want to sleep in front of the keyboard when we are using the PC.

Oh, a new Pharaoh-video! Awesome!
It only took the blood-sacrifice of 2897 goats for Khorne to fullfill my wish.
xD
I can't believe people would skip the introduction.
+Cyrenaica Tertia - Most don't but some do according to analytics. I like to provide the option.
Now THIS is a game you should finish! Thanks!
Yes, thanks for another Pharaoh video - very good once more =D
When my mom played this a police officer tried to stop a hippo from eating the people but the hippo killed him I think that’s the level with the mean hippos.
I was struggling for hours with this one, but I don't think it's that hard after I started focusing on selling the plain stone first. The order of requests seems to be secret. Of course it would have helped if knew that I could sell pottery.
It can be so easy to miss a potential export in this game. I've missed some key trades many times.
@@GamerZakh Do you have videos about bandstands and pavilions? When I insert them incorrectly, some services will suffer.
@@koosschutter1675 I don't have a video on that, they are complicated and messy for me too haha.
Great work Zack! Papyrus would garanteed you more cash in the start and remember that you can Save some workers from the ferry landings in the start, because they don't need any fire/architect post.. However Amazing video 😊

fantastic! keep these awesome vids coming!
Personally, I tend to go towards selling everything possible. Bricks and straw after the mastabas are done, limestone, pottery and clay to start.
There is a remaster of this game coming out on steam soon, no release date announced yet
Everything seemed to be working out for me on this mission but then exporting goods suddenly stopped giving me money, and I'm not sure why? I had tons of pottery and they weren't being sold, and then stopped exporting at all. And then even if I was exporting Limestone, the balance was negative and I started losing money until it wasn't viable anymore.
Hallo, how do I change On's Name to Heliopolis so that I can play the next city named Giza instead of Dahsur?
I am just taking a look to take a quick idea of how to solve that level. ahah. And I am wondering how aren´t you interrupted and brought to attention that your road is interrupted and a certain area will stagnate.
First of all : Great videos, I really appreciate your effort and enthusiasm you put in these nuggets of old but good games. I have the problem, that the trade route for luxuries has been closed, thus i can't finish my mastaba )=. Do you know if its gonna get reopened again ?
ooh bless Rah the strat games ar back!
after finishing the mastabas you can start exporting bricks to solve your money problems
Ah yes, that would be a good idea.
28:35 work camps cannot collapse so you don't have to put down the architect's post
+mikxer - Ah, good tip. I just put one down anyway out of habit and I usually have unemployment.
you're right !!! XD I will enjoy this
Thanks for these, although you were moving around the screen so much, I got a little dizzy :). They are very helpful!

may i ask why the road block is needed?
