Salve Governor.
After your delightful exploits turning the... quaint, settlement of Grimsby into
a thriving port of garum production for the Empire, it seems the appetite of the
common pleb for this most sacred sauce can not be sated. Not only that the patricians
have begun to clamour for more and more unique flavours.
Thus you are being sent to a place in most northern Britannia named the Shetland islands.
God forbid.
Found a small colony, export fish, and try not to freeze.
Do not disappoint me Governor.

Anyways ... Terrible map. Feels impossible. I am sure someone can crack it though. |

If one goes for LI together with some patricians, just two farms are needed which gives a little more space. Probably a better approach to this map? :)

Not sure this is a map for Augustus at all but for sure I dont see success anywhere near me without copying your very cool market loop.

For those who want to try this map, it may not be possible, I like experimenting with tiny maps and send them to Jake (and Baron) to test on streams. Just be forwarned that I don't expect anyone to complete it after watching Jake's attempt. |

Im very near. I got the 2500 beds.
Now need to reach them earlier to achieve the prosperity and occupation.
I wish there was fish export in that horrific map. not that I could spare any food. I just spent a couple of days on it.[Edited on 03/22/23 @ 05:27 AM]

@Governor Jon
Thanks a lot for this map! Provides a really different challenge. I hope one finds a way to beat this map in a legit way :D[Edited on 03/22/23 @ 07:32 PM]

Can you explain what you did with the hospital in the patrician attempt? I understand the market loop but not this one. You also did it with venus on your 1st attempt.
My design is somewhat chaotic. As you say, not much space for desirability. [Edited on 03/23/23 @ 12:17 AM]

The hospital in this position works, as there would be normal road tiles. This is due to the fact, that random walkers can cross gardens.
You can also use gardens, to block getting market ladies. I used this option, to deliver the 2nd and 3rd type of food only to the patricians. The three forced markets, can't get food from the granary to the right, but the market close by can. After the market is stuffed, the distribution market lady can cross the garden to reach the patricians. I copied this very cool technique from trolgu :)
I hope this helps :) Please don't take this information for granted. This is from my own observations and reading through the forum. It's maybe wrong :D
The gardens in the back road is a little hacky. There are players, who can control the spawning of the market ladies by planning the road network accordingly. But this is far from my abilities in this game :D[Edited on 03/23/23 @ 07:50 AM]
