Map made for Julius but seems douable in Augustus.
I have updated the map after Commissar Marek's suggestion.He played on Twitch with augustus.Now the map has a time limit of 30 years and very hard military and request! If you want to do even harder, make your own goals.God luck!

My best Governor!
After the death of my dear father Marcus Aurelius, Aquincum has been an important city in the region of Pannonia Inferior. The beautiful city is in a strategic location next to the Danube river and prevents immigration to the Roman Empire, therefore it is of utmost importance that we seize control of the area. The hostile Celtic Eravisci people live there and are collaborating with Germanic hordes in a plot of war against us. Despite our previous efforts, we have lost many brave men during the Marcomman war against these barbaric Germans and Celts. However, there is no need to worry about your safety in your new mission my Governor. I have arranged for two legions at your defence, led by our best General Gnaeus Julius Agricola in Transaquincum and Contra Aquincum. You are assigned to build a thriving city in this small strategic area with heavy military presence.
May the Gods favour your efforts in bringing glory to the great Roman Empire!
Caesar Markus Aurelius Commodus Antonius Augustus

Hints:
Make barack and fort soon for your safe.
You need walls and towers for your defence,hard enemy attacks coming!
Dock place on the top smal isle.You can make ship bridges and low bridges.Good traid routes and 2nd wine,you can also buy olives,vine,iron,wood it`s save you some place.
Balance: 5
Nice mix of making money (economy) and fighting the ennemy (military).
Creativity: 5
Nothing special but on the other hand there are already so many maps made for Caesar III that being "creative" becomes almost impossible unless you make a scenario (map) that is so unusual that it is no longer enjoyable playing it.
Map Design: 5
The possibility to link up the small islands with low bridges would have been a nice touch.
Story/Instructions: 5
Fine
Additional Comments:
A military map in combination with a time limit and a high peace rating is not a good combination. With every building that is destroyed after an invasion you lose one point of the peace rating up to a maximum of 12 and in the two following years the peace rating goes up with only 2 points instead of the usual 5. If you are unlucky an loose a few buildings during the many attacts than due of the time limit you loose the game.
That is what happend to me.
I will try again
