Play as the great queen Hatshepsut.

This was the scenario used in the "Daughter of Kings" contest for CBC.

Kewl ~ First download & it goes at the very top of the list too!

I recommend too this scenario, great tricky world map, different ways to do it.
Thanks Azeem!

I'm joining the chorus!!

Excellent world map, great (and familiar) city map, lots of space to build pyramids.

If you really want a challenge, try to get the win screen within the time constraints from the contest (hard by 1954 bce and easy by 1944 bce, each before 7:20 pm in Shemu). Kiya is right--very tricky.

Thanks again Azeem!

I found myself playing this one over and over. It was so much fun. And had so many different ways to approach it.

A very well thought out scenario.

Glad you all like it.

I really enjoyed making the world map and triggers for this one.

Azeem I enjoyed playing it.

Gave a lot of time to make a lovely city and the WM was great.

thanks to you

Looking out for a new scenario like this...................
but remembered this was my second scenario ever in CotN so I never got to the original game so that I first have to clear.

Azeem, really one of the better scenarios. Thank you !

LisaMockingbird · #9 03-09-2007, 02:30 PM

can't wait to try this. The best part of Caesar 4 seems to be that peeps have noticed CotN again and we are getting some new scenarios

Enjoyed this one so very very much.

This one I played for speed, but could get much higher prestige using Obelisks instead of Steles.

Azeem, that was a great scenario. loved it that it was from a woman's point of view without being goofy. thanks for posting it.

Azeem · #12 03-19-2007, 06:17 PM

This was a lot of fun to make. The history behind Hatshepsut is quite interesting and she was a very remarkable ruler. It's unfortunate that she doesn't get as much exposure as Cleopatra.

Cleopatra was a Greek who ruled under the foot of the roman empire, did nothing extraordinary, and gained power by seducing and using men. Now Hapshepsut! There was a queen.

Gah... Almost finished the scenario...

Getting rather close. Once I finish I'll put up a review at HG.

Loving it as far as it is.

Thanks for all your hard work.

The pace was nice with sites and goals being revealed gradually. It was longer than I expected but that's a good thing and no raiders showing up to pollute my city!
