In my recollection, roadblocks didn't really fix the walker issues. At least another open source project is backporting the roadblock to Caesar III's engine. > While Julius does not implement any gameplay changes, a fork of Julius named Augustus is implementing many long-wanted gameplay changes, such as roadblocks.Īh, that's somewhat exciting. Impressions Games did a great job with Caesar III, but those last few additions in Pharaoh / Cleopatra really makes the designing of blocks / housing areas much easier and more consistent. the "height" of the gameplay was found in Pharaoh / Cleopatra, rather than Caesar III. This allows you to explicitly make blocks (by preventing workers from taking the wrong fork in a road). With "roadblocks", any worker who "determines services" would make a U-turn upon touching a blocker. Pharaoh / Cleopatra, the next game in this series, made this more explicit. Prefects/police+firefighter units, religious services, entertainment, etc. This led to the strategy of minimizing forks and maximizing the worker loops to create "blocks", where workers reliably provided needed services (marketplace for food/pottery, furniture. If the worker took a left at a fork, all the houses to the left would have access to the bath, but none of the houses to the right would have a bath. For example, the houses a Bath Worker walked by determined which houses had access to a bath. In Caesar III, your "blocks" were organized by how far the laborers walked.
