Getting Started
With the inclusion of all-new buildings and walkers, Augustus requires additional
graphic files to be installed. Without these files, your game will not be able to use our
new assets, resulting in a glitched display.
When obtaining the install files from GitHub, please ensure you download all available
Augustus files for your chosen version of the mod. From Version 3.2.0 onwards, a full
download for Windows should consist of 3 core files, as well as a single folder:
(1x) augustus.exe
(2x) library .dll files
(1x) ‘assets’ folder
The .exe and .dll files can be extracted and run from anywhere on your computer, and
the ‘assets’ folder MUST be extracted into the same location than augustus.exe or into
your original Caesar 3 install location. The assets folder is essential so new graphical
assets can be displayed in your game. If this folder is not found, the game will warn you
on launch, and any missing asset will be noted in the log file (‘augustus-log.txt’).
Note: when upgrading to newer versions of Augustus, the previous assets folder must
be deleted first, then replaced by the up-to-date assets folder, to prevent compatibility
issues.
If you have any questions regarding installation, please feel free to join GamerZakh’s
Discord and post in the #julius-and-augustus channel. We will be prompt in offering
assistance with any issues which may arise, as we want everyone to enjoy this new
update!

Configuration
Augustus presents a number of configurable game options to tailor gameplay

experience to personal tastes. The Options menu is accessed from either the main
menu, or the options tab at the top of the screen, and contains hotkey, UI, difficulty, and
gameplay settings. Language localizations can also be selected in the Options menu.
Now the settings and the configurable options have been categorized into 4 different
tabs, with the General Settings for sounds, localizations, and resolutions being on the
first tab.
User Interface (UI) options are displayed on the second tab of the Options menu. With
the addition of a scale bar for the scroll speed, the other configurable options are:
● Play intro videos
● Extra information in the control panel
○ Displays a game speed control and additional information about the
scenario in the sidebar:
■ Population
■ Unemployment
■ Ratings
● Enable smooth scrolling
● Disable map scrolling on windows edge
● Draw walker waypoints on overlay after right clicking on a building
○ Displays target road tiles for all four of a building’s walker routes. These
tiles are used by the game to plot the path of a building’s roaming walker.
○ Can only be accessed while viewing an overlay, such as water, fire risk,
entertainment coverage, and so on.
○ Displays as blue squares on the road after right-clicking a building, such
as a temple or school.
● Show range when building reservoirs, fountains, and wells
● Show range of fountains and wells when building houses
● Show draggable construction size
○ Displays small yellow text in the format of “1x2” to let you know how
many tiles wide and long your construction area is.
○ Particularly useful for laying roads, houses, demolishing trees, and
anything else that can be built by clicking and dragging.
● Highlight legion on cursor hover
● Enable military sidebar
○ When you left click a legion, the sidebar building buttons are replaced
with an information panel detailing the legion’s status (morale, health,
size) and buttons to issue commands to the legion.
● Disable right click to drag map
● Display max attainable prosperity rating with current housing
○ Number only shows if the player has not reached the prosperity goal.
● Separate digits
○ Displays thousand separators for large numbers.
● Inverse dragging map with right mouse button
● Show new messages as alerts instead of popups
○ Messages popups do not interrupt the game and are shown as simple
alerts in the upper part of the screen.
● Show grid
○ Display a construction grid on the whole map.
● Show partial grid around construction
○ Display a 2-tile-wide grid around buildings during placement.
● Always show rotation buttons
○ Rotation buttons are displayed automatically if a building has variants or
can be rotated. (aimed for mouse-only or touch controls)

Difficulty options are displayed on the third tab of the Options menu. The vanilla game
difficulty has been made into a scale on this option tab. The configurable options are:
● Enable god curses/blessings

● Disable jealousness of gods
● Enable global labour pool
○ Removes the need to have labor-seeking citizens pass by housing. Instead,
all buildings with road access will be fully staffed if there is a sufficient
number of unemployed citizens.
● Change citizens retirement age from 50 to 60
○ By default, citizens retire at age 50 and no longer contribute to your
workforce. This forces you to rely heavily on immigration when city
health is good and creates an unstable workforce.
○ If you enable “Fixed worker pool – 38% of plebian population”, then this
option has no effect.
● Fixed worker pool – 38% of plebeian population
○ Enabling this option will set your worker pool to 38% of your plebeian
population, without regard for age.
● Block building around wolves
● Allow building multiple barracks
● Disable infinite wolves spawning
● Maximum number of Grand Temples that a player can build per city: defaults
to 2

City Management options are displayed on the fourth tab of the Options menu. These
options are:
● Buying market ladies don’t distribute goods
○ By default, market buyers also sell goods stocked in their market to any
homes they pass while travelling to purchase more food and goods to sell.
By preventing this, you can more tightly control the availability of foods
and goods in various parts of the city.
○ For example, a market buyer going to purchase wine may pass houses you
do not want to be able to purchase wine. If you allow market buyers to
also sell, then these houses will be able to buy wine from that market
buyer, potentially triggering an unwanted evolution into patricians.
● Cart pushers from getting granaries can go off road
○ Enables a cart pusher from a granary set to “get” a type of food to go off
road to reach a granary set to “accept” that type of food.
○ Removes the need for a road connection between a granary set to “accept”
a type of food and another granary set to “get” that type of food.
○ As with warehouses, they will get food from the nearest “accepting”
granary and will ignore other “getting” granaries, even if they are nearer
than the “accepting” granary.
● Double the capacity of cart pushers from getting granaries
● Allow traders to export food from granaries
○ Before Augustus, food imports and exports, as well as Caesar requests,
only worked if food was stored in warehouses. As this may be sometimes
inconvenient, Augustus now allows both importing food and sending
food requests directly from granaries. However, since exporting food may
make people starve, this specific new feature was added as a setting.
● Tower sentries don’t need road access from barracks
○ Enables sentries to go off road to reach their assigned tower.
○ Removes the need for a road connection between the barracks and the
tower.
○ Note that towers still require road access for staffing purposes and that
unstaffed towers still cannot receive sentries.
● Farms and wharves only deliver to nearby granaries
○ Prevents farm and wharf cart pushers from traveling to the opposite end
of the map to deposit their harvest or catch into an accepting granary.
○ Improves efficiency by keeping cart pushers’ trips short.
○ Distance is calculated “as the crow flies”, regardless of road distance. The
limit is 64 tiles.

● Food isn’t delivered to getting granaries

○ Enables better control over farm and wharf cart pushers’ behaviour by
preventing them from taking their harvest or catch to a granary that is
“getting” that food type.
● All houses merge
○ Force houses in a 2x2 area that are of the same quality, such as “small
tent”, “large casa”, or “small insulae”, to merge into the 2x2 variant. This
removes the random element assigned to map tiles to determine if homes
will merge on that tile.
● Randomly collapsing clay pits and iron mines take some money instead
● Warehouses and granaries don’t accept anything when built
● Houses don’t expand into gardens
● Roaming walkers don’t skip corners
● Citizens will automatically kill harmless animals
○ If disabled, peaceful animals (sheeps and zebras) are not killed on sight,
unless sending a legion.

New Core & UI Augustus Features
● Core Features Additions ●
Roadblocks:
Taking inspiration from later city-building Impressions games, we added
roadblocks. We have improved the concept of roadblocks by adding special
orders, which can be set by right-clicking the roadblock. Roadblocks will prevent
roaming walkers from crossing them-use them to close off your housing blocks or better
direct walkers. Roadblocks have no effect on “destination” walkers-entertainers coming
from entertainer schools, cart pushers, market buyers etc. These walkers have a goal in
mind and will not be dissuaded!
Market Orders, Warehouse Orders, Granary Orders:

Right click on a market to enable or halt the acquisition of food and goods. When set to
“Not trading”, the market buyer will not attempt to get that good. Further, when
viewing the market’s storage of food and goods, the 0 will be red to indicate the
resource is not being acquired nor sold.
Right clicking on a Warehouse or Granary will now show a display enabling

control of space allocation in that structure for a resource. You can select the
following to control storage: 32, 24, 16, 8.
You now can control how many goods are stored in a Warehouse or Granary (which can
now store up to 3200 units of food) by clicking the order button until it changes to your
desired amount. Both Warehouses and Granaries will send cart pushers to fetch the
assigned goods until they reach their selected limit for that good.
For a resource that is “not accepted”, the default value of the stock is set to 32 and
cannot be changed. However, the value has no influence on a possible storage of the
resource. When changing back its acceptance status, the value previously set will be
displayed again.
Dock Orders Enhancement:

You can now set which type of goods a Dock can accept and special orders on docks can
now limit ship access by city of origin (hovering city names with the cursor displays a
tooltip showing which goods the city sells/buys).

Under the old system the docks were restricted only by goods-- if you wanted to have a
specific city trade at a dock, you’d have to make sure that the dock in question allows
all goods that the city sells and buys.
Docks having special orders for specific goods work as they did before, but docks can
now be set to serve only trade ships of their respective cities. Ships also do not queue up
in an impractical manner, and ships that already have been waiting to trade will no
longer have their spot in the line be skipped over by a newly spawned ship.
More stockpiling options:

Raw materials and food can now be stockpiled on an individual
building basis in order to reserve their use for processes other than
consumption or creation of finished goods-- such as monument
construction, Lighthouse maintenance, or requests. Production
buildings now have an option to stockpile resources on the bottom right box of the
building window rather than automatically sending them to the nearest workshop or
granary. Warehouses now have an option to disable ressource delivery to workshops or
granaries if stockpiling is ordered on an individual building basis.
Warehouses also now show new colored flags that change based on permissions
enabled at the warehouse.

New Housing Advisor:

The Housing advisor informs the Governor about the total number of residences
in the city (detailed with ranks), aswell how many people can live in, and the
remaining space available. It also lists the number of residences asking to be provided
with specific goods (pottery, furniture, oil, or wine). Really useful to plan your
industrial production!
Production building efficiency:

A new statistic is available in any
production building panel: the
efficiency. It represents the ratio
between how much a production
building can produce in a year versus
what it actually produced the past
year, allowing you to check if the production of your industry is optimal. If the
efficiency is low, a message will inform you of the probable causes. (Note: the Fishing
Wharf panel displays the average monthly catch.)
● UI and QoL Improvements ●
Improved load/save file

dialog:
To easily organize your
saved games in Caesar 3,
the load/save file dialog
now displays a minimap,
type and name of the
mission, as well as actual
funds, population and
date. Building types on the
minimap now have more
distinctive colors.

New Sidebar Information:

To better use the space granted by modern resolutions and
convey more information, we have updated the city screen
sidebar.
New additions to the sidebar have been added: the mood of the
gods, information about any upcoming invasions, and any
requests made by the emperor. The request display also allows
stockpiling the requested goods with a single click, with the
option to continue stockpiling after the request is complete. A
red triangle over the good in the sidebar indicates whether
something is being stockpiled in this manner. Hovering over
Culture, Prosperity, Peace, and Favor ratings, now displays a
tooltip with the corresponding advices from the Ratings
Advisor.
Overhauled Options Menu:

The sound and resolution menus in “Options” have been
overhauled and are accessible from the menu and in-game tabs.
Both function on sliders rather than buttons now.
New Overlays:
New overlays have been added including “Enemies” (under
Risks), as well as “Mothballed” and “Warehouses” (under
Commerce), or even “Roads”, for extra convenience to the
player in cluttered maps and saves. Feel free to explore the
numerous additions in the Overlays menu!
Tips: To display directly an

overlay without assigning a
dedicated hotkey, use the
"Relative overlay" hotkey
(added by Julius). Hover a building with the mouse cursor, press the hotkey, and the
corresponding overlay will be displayed. This works from the city map or even from
another overlay. Useful to quickly navigate through different overlays with only two
keys!

Overhauled Trade Advisor UI:

In Augustus, trade has gained some new features. To keep up with the changes, the UI
of the trade advisor has been overhauled for clarity and efficiency.
The advisor now shows which goods are exportable and importable based on the trade
routes available in the scenario. It is also now possible to both import and export a good
(such as wine) and set quotas for each type of transaction.
Buttons have been added at the bottom left for players to choose their land and sea
trade policies, if they have met the conditions to set them.
Note: Trade orders can now also be issued from the Empire map window (by selecting a
trading city and clicking on the desired goods). You can now also view the trade prices
set by Rome directly from the empire map.
Construction grid:
Always struggling to determine if there’s enough tile space to squeeze buildings there?
Or you’re the kind of meticulous governor desiring to build perfectly symmetrical
cities? Augustus finally implements a common city-builder feature: the construction
grid. You can either choose to display a full grid on the map via the new dedicated
button, or a grid limited to a few tiles around the building when placing it.

● Performance & Optimization ●
Augustus also includes a host of performance and code optimization changes.

There are general multiple small performance improvements but some key performance
optimizations are as follows:
● Truly massive cities are now possible-all hardcoded limits (number of sprites,
walkers, buildings) have been entirely removed. Running on 21st century hardware,
the game will now support far more buildings and walkers than it did in the 1990s.
Prepare for huge battles fought at the gates of great metropoli.
● Cart pusher calculations, especially for farms, have been updated to assess their
destination more frequently. In the original game, farms would often get “stuck” to
the first granary placed. This could result in the pusher ignoring a later granary
placed closer. Now, pushers will recalculate their destination and distances more
frequently and pick the closest one. If the granary is full, they will try the next best
option.
● Trading ships also have been enhanced to search for docks in a smarter way and
consider the new settings when choosing a dock.
● The graphics rendering has been moved from

software (the CPU) to hardware (the GPU). This
improves game performance so significantly that it
is now possible to zoom out to view the entire city
at once!

● Aimed for developers and modders, an Asset Previewer UI is now available. It can
be started with the command “./augustus.exe --asset-previewer” from a shortcut or a
terminal window.
***

Monuments & Construction
Augustus allows, for the first time in Caesar 3, monument building.
Construct mighty Grand Temple monuments, which offer powerful and unique
bonuses to make your cities larger and stronger than ever before. The Grand Temples
are dedicated to the five deities that players are familiar with. Two Grand Temples can
be built by default in a city, as well as the Pantheon which honors all of the gods. A
shining Lighthouse may also be erected in cities relying on the bounty of the sea or a
Caravanserai to promote land trading. In order to be built, all monuments require a
huge supply of raw materials – clay, timber, and marble. Procuring these resources is
not enough-engineering expertise and labor must be secured to raise the walls. Placing
the base of the monument requires a large sum of denarii, but it can be placed without
any resources stockpiled. Once this base is placed, your citizens can get to work.
Oracles, Large temples, and several new buildings that require resources for
construction are now mini-monuments, which only have a single construction phase,
but also require a Work camp and the Architects’ guild in order to construct. Hover
over the monument icon with the mouse to display the total of required resources
and the number of construction phases for each monument.

This structure is the Work camp. It requires 20 workers and

delivers the required resources to the monument construction site
from city Warehouses.
In order to get your monuments started, you must first place this
building and prepare Warehouses to store the resources for the
monument: marble, timber and clay. When the base of the monument is placed, right
clicking on it will display the required raw materials for its current phase to be
completed. Remember, you do not need to have the exact amount of resources on hand
all at once!
When a monument requires a resource, for example 16 units of marble, the Work camp
will spawn a foreman. The foreman will walk to a Warehouse which has the materials
stored and will retrieve up to 4 of those resources. When he retrieves the resource,
haulers will appear behind him. The group will then walk from the Warehouse site to
the monument and unload their supplies. Once completed, a new walker will spawn
from the camp and the process will continue again until the phase has all of its
resources. You can place multiple Work camps, but remember they have very poor
desirability and require labor. It will not speed things up to place multiple Work camps
if resources are already being used as fast as they can be obtained.
This structure is the Architects’ guild. It requires 12 workers and

comes into play once a monument has received all the required
resources for a given construction phase. The guild will spawn an
architect once the Work camps have satisfied the current resource
needs of the monument. The architect will enter the base of the
monument and upgrade the monument to its next construction phase. The Work camp
returns to its cycle of gathering and delivering to the site. Upon all phases of a
monument being completed, the architect walker will arrive again at the monument,
finally bringing the monument to full operation.
When a grand temple is completed, your city will be greatly rewarded for its devotion
and skill! Completed monuments require many employees (50 to 150), financial upkeep
in the form of levies (c.f. further below) and road access. But the provided bonus and
the fact they will never fall to fire or collapse are worth the price and hard labor!

FAQ: Why do monuments take so long to be built? Can multiple Work Camps and
Architects' Guilds speed up the process?
All the building process is done by the walkers using the road network, and to
efficiently build monuments, this has to be taken into consideration.
A foreman from the work camp has to go to the warehouse and grab the resources, then
head to the monument site. If the work camps are far from the warehouses, or the
warehouses with necessary resources are far from the monument sites, the delivery
process can take a long time.
To speed it up, be sure that warehouses with construction materials are close, or build
multiple work camps to haul more materials at the same time.
Work camps don't necessarily have to be close to the monument, it's equally as efficient
if they are close to the resource warehouses.
A monument only needs a couple of visits from the Architect's guild, so they are usually
not a bottleneck, even if they are far away and multiple monuments are currently in
construction phases.
***

Religion, Blessings & Grand Temple Bonuses
Augustus adds various religious buildings to help please your citizens, but above all the
demanding gods, from a tiny contentment with Lararia to a bigger praise by building
Nymphaea and Mausolea mini-monuments.
Lararium:
This building is a shrine dedicated to the household spirits.
Effectively a 1x1 variation of the Oracle, it provides access to
all gods to 10 people per building.
Nymphaeum:
This building is a temple dedicated to the water nymphs;
minor spirits of the seas, rivers and springs. It is effectively a
larger 3x3 variation of the Oracle, providing access to 750
people per god. Like the Oracle, the Nymphaeum requires
marble to build (4 loads).
Mausoleum:
There are 2 variants of the Mausoleum: Small (2x2) (with a
rotation variant) and Large (3x3) (with a “Pyramid” variant).
Historically, the Romans were quite superstitious about the
burial of the dead, requiring mausolea to be built outside the
city limits.
To replicate this in Augustus, both mausolea emit negative
desirability within a close radius, but a large positive
desirability effect further away. They require marble to build
(2 loads for the Small Mausoleum and 4 loads for the Large
Mausoleum), provide access to 500 and 750 people per god
respectively, and can not fall to fire or collapse. Mausoleums
also slightly improve overall city health (see Health &
Sickness chapter below).

On another scale, the Grand temples are awe inspiring to your citizens and mightily
pleasing to the gods. They take time, money and sacrifice to complete, but once
operational, enable new features and bonuses. There are two types of divine powers
granted by Grand temples: when finally completed, a bonus is instantly bestowed upon
the province. To illustrate, let’s look at the Grand Temple of Mars:
Building the Grand Temple of Mars demonstrates your city’s iron will and martial
devotion. The temple itself will act as a second barracks, doubling recruitment speed,
and it unlocks 4 additional Forts for a grand total of 10.
But there is yet more divine power to be harnessed. At the bottom of the grand temple
window is a button to bestow an epithet onto the temple. Epithets are named aspects of
a particular deity and provide new and awesome powers when bestowed. Each Grand
temple will have two epithets to choose from-and once you choose, there’s no going
back except to demolish the temple and build anew. So the choice should be made
wisely!

The Grand Temple of Mars can be devoted to one of two aspects of Mars, becoming the
Temple of Mars Ultor or the Temple of Mars Quirinus. Each option is explained in this
display to aid in this difficult choice. Bestowing an epithet costs 1000 dn to procure the
appropriate sacrifices and rituals. Powers granted by epithets are not applied city-wide:
they instead grant new powers to all priest walkers and temples of that god or
goddess.
If the epithet of Mars Quirinus (10% reduced consumption of goods) is bestowed, the
governor must ensure they place small or large Temples of Mars in their housing blocks
- only houses served by priests of Mars will gain this benefit. The Grand temple
appearance will change when you bestow an epithet and once again, be warned, the
choice is permanent! So unless you do not mind destroying your hard work and having
to rebuild it from scratch, choose carefully, Governor.
Here is the full list of the grand temples and their respective bonuses. Use this list to
help select your glorious construction projects. Remember: only two grand temples are
allowed by default, as well as the Pantheon.

Ceres:
Provides cart pushers from farms with a 50% speed boost.
● Ceres Fecunda: Priests reduce food consumption by 20% in homes with Ceres
access.
● Ceres Frugifera: Temples of Ceres act as markets, collecting and distributing a
single locally-produced food type as well as olive oil.
Mars:
Allows commissioning of 4 additional forts and acts as a second barracks.
● Mars Ultor: Priests of Mars will generate food as they pass houses. When their
temple has sufficient stock, it will be delivered to the Supply post for your
soldiers to eat. This food is generated, not removed from house stocks. Houses
can only generate food in this way once per month-redundant temples will not
increase food.
● Mars Quirinus: Priests reduce goods consumption by 10% in houses with Mars
access.
Mercury:
Provides traders, both land and sea, with 50% additional capacity. Land traders and
Native traders get a 25% speed bonus. This will allow increased trade throughout,
especially on huge maps.
● Mercurius Fortunus: Priests reduce pottery and furniture consumption by 20%
in homes with Mercury access.
● Mercurius Mercator: Priests reduce oil and wine consumption by 20% in homes
with Mercury access.
Venus:
Provides a sizable desirability range and power increase for statues, gardens, and
temples. You will need fewer of these to evolve your housing. Houses also stockpile
more goods, and take longer to devolve when goods and services are interrupted.
● Venus Verticordia: Priests collect and distribute wine produced and stored in
the Grand Temple. Vines are not required. The wine counts as a “second type”
for housing evolution purposes. The production rate of wine at the Grand
Temple scales based on population with Venus access. Up to 16 units of wine
may be stored at the Grand temple.
● Venus Genetrix: Priests of Venus provide 10 entertainment points and greatly
boost the desirability effect of the houses themselves, increasing the appeal of
the neighborhood without requiring additional desirability boosters.

Neptune:
Grants +1 range for fountains and wells and +2 for reservoirs. Water services labor is
reduced by 50%. Trading ships travel 25% faster. Sickness increase in houses is greatly
hindered.
● Neptunus Equester: Temples of Neptune produce charioteers that will travel to
the hippodrome, granting hippodrome access to all passed houses.
● Neptunus Adiutor: Priests increase the population capacity of houses with
Neptune access by 5% and allow the Grand Temple itself to act as a filled
reservoir, regardless of proximity to water.
Pantheon:
Provides population and priest walker coverage to all five gods. Reduces the levy fees
for all religious buildings by 25% and holds free annual small festivals. While all the
gods are happy enough, the events "Contaminated water", "Iron mine collapsed" and
"Flooded clay pit" will not happen.
● Pantheum Ara Maxima: All small and large temples send destination walker
priests to the Pantheon. These priests carry all their bonuses and powers with
them, and will greatly spread the blessings of the gods across your city!
● Pantheum Roma Aeterna: Homes covered directly by the Pantheon can evolve
one additional step beyond what they can currently achieve. Only houses passed
by a priest from the Pantheon itself will be affected.
We also have made some changes to the blessing system as part of our religion rework.
Augustus aims to allow governors to gain blessings in a logical way and remove the
strategy of alternating exalting and enraging gods for blessings. Appeased gods will
gain “sun” symbols at a slightly randomized rate and may grant a blessing when five
suns are achieved.

Note: In the Large temple column, Mars and oracles have a green colored numeral. This
means one of the two Mars temples is a Grand Temple, and one of the “large oracles” is
the Pantheon. Small Mausoleum, Large Mausoleum and Nymphaeum, also count
respectively as small and large oracles.
The Augustus team feels some of the original blessings from Caesar 3 are unbalanced,
and these have been tweaked. Major and minor curses are unchanged. Here are the
altered blessings:
Neptune – Trade income is increased by 50% for 12 months (instead of 100% until next
December).
Mercury – industries receive 2 raw material units and immediately finish production
(instead of cramming unwanted food types into granaries).
Venus – Reduces the age of your citizens older than 25 by 3 years and increases the size
of the city labor pool, as well as providing the original sentiment boost.
About random event frequency:

As of version 3.2, the time before the same random event can happen again (e.g.
“Sea/Land trade problems”, “Contaminated water”, “Iron mine collapse”, “Clay pits
flooded”) is now based on difficulty levels:
Very easy Easy Normal Hard Very hard
36 months 30 months 24 months 18 months 12 months
The "Rome changes wages" event can only happen every 12 months, regardless of the
difficulty level.
If a Pantheon is active and all gods are happy, the events “Contaminated water”, “Iron
mine collapsed” and “Clay pit flooded” will not happen anymore!

Trade Policies & Building Levies

Augustus also provides new options for trade, called trade policies. These are set via
two different monuments: the Caravanserai enables land trade policies, while the
Lighthouse enables sea trade policies, and each of them also have original benefits.
This monument is the Lighthouse. It must be placed within 8-9 tiles of

water and follows the same monument construction process as grand
temples. It will need marble, timber and clay as well as a work camp
and an architects’ guild to be built. Once erected, fishing boats move
10% faster and sea storm trade disruptions are halved in length. A
supply of timber is required to light the flame above your marvelous
city! Inadequate supply will lapse the enacted policy.
This monument is a Caravanserai. Like all monuments, it

will need marble, timber and clay, as well as a work camp
and an architects’ guild, to be built. Once the caravanserai is
established, land trade disruptions last half as long, but it
will need a continuous supply of food for the caravans. If
you do not supply adequate food or labor, your trade policy
will lapse.

In order to select a policy, first build the corresponding structure. The policies available
are the same for both sea and land trade. As governor, you decide which policy is best
suited for your current situation. You may change the policy at any time, but it will cost
500 denarii each time you change the policy.
These policies can provide new economic options to players in both early and late
stages of city development. Choose wisely!

If all these monuments have a price to build, they also have a price to maintain.
Therefore, Augustus implements an economic change as levies. Levies are a fixed
monthly cost accrued by certain buildings and are currently limited to monuments,
military and religious structures. Default values are in effect on Hard and Very Hard
difficulty. Normal difficulty reduces these costs and Easy eliminates them entirely.
Buildings/Difficulty Normal With Pantheon Hard / Very Hard With Pantheon
Mausoleums 1 dn/month free of charge 2 dn/month free of charge
Small Temples,

Levies are shown in the building info panel and in the new Levies overlay. The total
cost of levies can be found in the finance tab under expenditures. These levies can
significantly affect city finances, especially when monuments are completed. This is a
trade off for the incredible power they provide. Ensure your treasury is prepared!

Culture Rating
New Cultural Upgrades:
Caesar 3’s concept of “Culture Rating” required the player to

balance the venue capacity of certain structures against the total
population of the city. This inevitably led to a situation players
called “culture dumps”; or excessive placement of structures like
Schools, Libraries, Theaters, and Academies, often in the very last
days of a mission. To provide an alternative, we have implemented
structural upgrades similar to how Bathhouses, Markets,
Fountains, and Senate work.
Theater, School, and the Library now have a new upgrade state tied
to desirability. When the sufficient desirability level is achieved, the
structure will visually change - in addition, it will also increase the
venue capacity of the structure for the purpose of calculating
Culture rating. For example: a standard Theater covers 500 people,
while an upgraded Theater covers 1200 people. To save labor and
space, you should strive to place these cultural structures in areas
with high desirability.
As of version 3.2.0, the Academy now has an upgraded state as

well, with the standard Academy still providing coverage for
100 young people in your city, and an upgraded Academy
providing coverage for 150 young people.
Monument Points and Rating:

As another alternative to excessive placement, each completed
monument now provides +6 points toward your Culture rating. You can achieve a
maximum of 36 points from completing the Pantheon, two Grand Temples, a
Lighthouse, the Colosseum (which has been turned into a monument and only allows
for the construction of one), and the Hippodrome (also now a monument).
***

Entertainment Additions
Caesar 3 has a somewhat obscure mechanic of “global” entertainment points.

When a walker from a Theater passes homes, the walker will provide
entertainment points. This is clear to the player. However, if Theaters had
“Perfect” coverage of the entire city population, based on their “venue capacity”, then
every home would be awarded an additional 5 points of entertainment. This applied to
Theaters, Amphitheaters, and Colosseums, as well as the Hippodrome, which always
provided this global bonus.
Augustus has removed this mechanic for all but the Colosseum and Hippodrome.
Now, getting “Perfect” Amphitheater coverage, for example, will no longer grant 5
extra points universally. This was done to allow more “space” for new entertainment
buildings and bonii, as well as further reduce incentives to place redundant buildings.
New Structures:
Entertainment has received several new buildings and features. The Theater and
Amphitheater remain untouched, but with the Colosseum and Hippodrome becoming
monuments, we felt it fair to add some new non-monumental entertainment options.
The Colosseum was often required to achieve patrician Villa

housing. As that structure is now a massive monument
project, we introduce to you the Arena and Tavern.
The Arena is a 3x3 building that essentially takes the place of

the Colosseum. It costs 500dn and provides 25 entertainment
points when given both gladiator and lion access.
The Tavern is a local gathering place, intended to be placed in

housing blocks, emitting a small negative desirability within a close
radius, but slightly positive further away. A 2x2 building, it consumes
wine and meat to provide entertainment points. If only wine is
provided then 10 points are provided by the tavern walker. If both
wine and meat are provided, the walker provides 15 points. The
tavern has special instructions to help manage which resource you want to distribute
like markets. The tavern does not provide food or wine to housing like a market.

The Tavern also comes complete with a new walker who is responsible for
fetching wine from warehouses and meat from granaries, so it will not place
extra strain on your warehousemen. This building is a great use for wine in a
city that has yet to attract patricians!
Colosseum Games:
In Augustus, the Colosseum has become a monument and the heart of your city,
allowing you to host Great Games. These require stored resources and some of your
personal funds to host*. As governor, you may schedule games for your citizens,
however your rank must be taken into consideration too. A low ranking governor
cannot afford frequent games compared to a high ranking one - so choose wisely!
*Note: Games graphics display for 3 months. Bonuses are applied once the games begin.
Required resources and funds scale with city size, akin to Grand Festival wine
requirement.
Game Choices:
Naval Battle
Requires : Wine, Timber & Funds. The Colosseum needs to be within the
range of a reservoir.
Grants : Troop movement speed for 12 months and stronger distant battle
odds (lasts until used)
Animal Games
Requires : Meat & Funds
Grants : Criminals, riots and revolts are suppressed for 12 months. Lion
tamers will come to the defense of the city in the next invasion.
Roman Games
Requires : Wheat, Oil & Funds
Grants : Favor rating boosted. Citizen sentiment bonus for the next year.

Hippodrome
betting:
The Governor has
the right to enjoy
himself too!!
Bet on racing
chariots at the
Hippodrome with
personal funds for a
25% chance to win
back double your
money. Governors
can place bets
between 4 historical
teams: blue, red,
white, and green,
each with their own
backstory for the
curious ones!

Military Additions
The Supply post is a new building for military logistics. It

collects food for your soldiers, and will need to be kept in
good supply to maintain morale. A Supply post will send
out a quartermaster to a Granary and collect food, similar
to a market. The Granary now has an additional checkbox
to allow or deny quartermasters from collecting from that
Granary. When the Quartermaster collects food from a
Granary, camp-servants will carry food back to the Supply post. Food is stored in the
Supply post and each month, food will be consumed based on the number of soldiers
and difficulty setting. At Hard and Very Hard, each soldier consumes 4 units of food
per month. Food shortages at the supply post will quickly damage morale. For a
smooth operation, place the Supply post close to well-stocked granaries. Your soldiers
will consume all types of food-providing two or three types of food increases
maximum morale beyond the limits of the base game.
The military academy has been made slightly less effective to compensate. Supply posts
also have special order options.
Watchtowers are a new, cheaper alternative to stone towers.

Watchtowers do not need weapons to function, but they do need a
barracks. They also don’t require coverage by prefects or engineers.
They come equipped with an archer inside the tower, spawn 2
sentries on foot patrol, and employ 8 citizens. The watchtower is
handy for protection from early raiders
and wolves, or as a first line of defense while your armies
gather for battle. They can also be placed within the city if
you so desire, as they can fight criminals or rioting
gladiators.
Palisades:
Palisade walls are now available as a cheaper but weaker
alternative to stone walls. Since version 3.2, palisades
come with a gate that functions like a roadblock.
***

Sentiment & Crime
Sentiment and Mood in vanilla Caesar 3 is very basic. Players quickly understand that
if they kept wages high and taxed moderately, there would be no issues. In Augustus,
we sought to enhance this system. In this first iteration, we have included a complete
rework of crime, and implemented new sentiment factors. This is a work in progress
and a strong candidate for further enhancement.
Basic Sentiment Factors:

The key to a happy citizen is food, employment, entertainment, and local desirability.
If you can manage to keep unemployment down, and not excessively tax your citizens,
you are already at a good starting point. Augustus has made it more difficult (on higher
difficulty) to tax beyond 12%, so the days of 25% tax and +8 wages are over on Very
Hard. For early game stability, houses not visited by a tax collector will now be
considered to be at 0% tax.
In addition, Augustus has added an effect for extra food - multiple food types
beyond what is required at that housing level will now increase sentiment
(tents still cannot stock food and will receive no such benefit).
Furthermore, giving extra entertainment will increase happiness as it distracts

citizens from the daily grind. Augustus has included new forms of
entertainment as described above.
Finally, desirable neighborhoods will also increase the mood of the citizens. The
better housing they live in, the more positively affected they are by extra
desirability. So while adding statues next to tents will not make the dwellers
much happier, patricians will love you even more if you provide them with particularly
pleasing surroundings.
Another important consideration is housing inequality and overall citizen wealth.

Each home will assess itself against the overall housing level of the city. It will also
expect better living conditions in larger cities than in smaller ones. If citizens are living
below what they perceive as fair living conditions, sentiment issues can arise,
including crime. This could make a slum on the outskirts of an opulent city quite a
tinderbox!

This effect is much more pronounced at the Small Casa level and below, and
particularly intense for tents: small casa are beloved by players for adding labor and
population yet requiring no finished goods. Residents at these levels might start to
resent their modest homes when palaces go up next door - however, they can be
mollified by providing additional entertainment, food, and desirability.
On the other hand, plebeians living on Grand Insulae and patricians love their housing
conditions so much that they won’t resent higher housing types.
In short : Sentiment at a Glance

● The sentiment is calculated per individual house.
● A house gets a sentiment increase if it acquires more food (except for tents),
entertainment, and desirability than it requires.
● There is now a sentiment penalty if the house (Large Insulae or lower) is below the
average housing level.
● This penalty is harsher if the housing tile is small casa or lower, and especially
punishing for tents - however , mitigating factors can reduce this as explained above.
● Lastly - you can right click any house to see current sentiment and resident’s main
complaints.
*In future iterations, we hope to include citizenry riot events akin to the gladiator
revolts as potential recurring events for map makers who wish to simulate unruly city
situations.
Crime: Looting, Stealing, and Prefects

The crime walkers use the protester walker graphic. Crime walkers spawn
from housing tiles which have very low sentiment. Once sentiment reaches
this low, the crime walker spawns and either will target a forum or
warehouse/granary depending on how severe the sentiment is.

If a housing tile has only moderately low sentiment , the crime walker will seek to steal
funds. If sentiment is very low then they will seek to steal finished goods or food from
warehouses/granaries.
Prefects can reduce these criminal occurrences if they intercept the crime
walker along its walk. Crime walkers are essentially destination walkers (if
they seek to steal goods or food from warehouses/granaries) and may
sometimes walk off road to their intended target. Prefects in range will give
chase , and will speed up to try and catch the criminal. Once the prefect
catches the criminal, there is no chance for him to escape and he will be cut down! It is
wise to place prefects near storage sites if you have a high crime area.
New overlays for sentiment:

Crime overlay has now been reworked and will depict more accurately a home which is
susceptible to spawning a criminal. In addition, a “Sentiment” overlay has been added
(colorblind friendly!) which shows the relative happiness of all houses.
***

Health & Sickness
Health management was one of the lacking features in Caesar 3. Having access to a
single clinic was enough for a house to get a 100 health rating. Bathhouses, barbers and
hospitals were only needed to evolve houses to greater ranks. As of version 3.2.0,
Augustus implements a whole new health calculation, and adds a new threat for your
city: sickness.
House health:
Each house has a health rating, which can go from 0 to 100. This value increases
according the several factors:
Each house rank Clinic access Bathhouse access Barber access Hospital access
+1, up to +10 +30 +20 +10 +40
Small
Clinic + Hospital Large Mausoleum Each variety of food eaten
Mausoleum
Access effect area (including the base one)
effect area
+50 +1 (Small), +2 (Large), capped to +10 +15 per food type
If the sum is higher than 100, it’s capped at 100. If the house type requires food and it
doesn’t have food, its health is capped at 40.
The house's health rating is then used as a percentage of the total population of the
house, where the number of healthy residents is obtained. When all the houses are
calculated, the final health value is the percentage between all healthy residents and
total city population. This global percentage is used to set the city health rating in the
Health Advisor panel. A report about the sickness level in the city is also provided, as
well as how many residents have access to each type of health facilities.

Sickness:
Historically, if trade merchants brought valuable goods to Roman cities, they could also
introduce what was considered an unknown and invisible threat back in the days:
viruses and pathogen agents. Augustus simulates that by adding a new sickness value
to docks, warehouses, granaries, and houses.
When trading with merchant

caravans or ships, the more goods
are traded (sold and bought), the
more sickness increases in the
trade building.
Cartpushers (dockers, warehouse

and granary workers) originating
from an infected building spread
sickness to buildings they
deliver to and have a chance to
contaminate houses they pass by.
Any other cartpusher can also be
infected and spread sickness. Resource and production buildings are excluded from
possible contaminations.
In granaries and warehouses, sickness will increase every time an infected cartpusher
visits it, depending on the actual sickness value of the delivered building.
In houses, sickness will not increase at first. However, each time an infected cartpusher
walks near a house, there’s a possibility that the residents will become sick. If that
happens, then each month the house’s sickness value will increase, depending on the
house health value and the city’s total population. The lower the health value is in a
house, the more sickness will increase each month, and the higher is the city’s total
population, the bigger is the base sickness increase in houses.
All infected buildings and cartpushers in the city can be seen on the new "Sickness"
overlay.
But sickness is not a fatality, and your city can defend itself. Each new month, sickness
in buildings will decrease based on the city global health rating displayed in the
Health advisor panel.

The better the rating, the more sickness will decrease in trade buildings. In houses, the
better the health value is, the more efficient the city’s healthcare will be. But be aware
that, as the city’s population increases, you must provide better overall healthcare to
prevent sickness from spiraling out of control.

Having a good hospital coverage grants a healthcare bonus each month (the better the
overall coverage, the greater is the bonus), which can be very useful in densely
populated cities.
If the city holds an active Neptune Grand Temple, the monthly sickness increase in
any house will be reduced by 5.
2-Tier Plague:
If the sickness value reaches the value of 100 in any building, the building is plagued.
When a trading building is plagued, its employees are temporarily removed and the
building stops working. The nearest doctor or surgeon is sent automatically to
fumigate the building for a few days. Once cured, the building gets back its employees
and starts working again.
If a warehouse is plagued, it loses 100% of the stored food and 50% of oil and wine
stored goods. If a granary is plagued, it loses 50% of the stored food.
If a house is plagued, the outcome depends on the city health rating. If it is too low, the
house is burned down and all its residents die. If it ‘s high enough, the house survives
but becomes quarantined, preventing immigrants from settling on it. Some citizens will
still die, the exact number depending on how high your overall health rating is. The
nearest doctor or surgeon is sent automatically to fumigate the house for a few days,
then immigrants can move in again.
***

Decorations & Ornaments
With the power to add new buildings to Caesar 3 for the first time ever, we wanted to
increase the visual variety and options for aesthetic and desirability-boosting buildings.
Peruse the new Parks, Paths, and Trees submenus in the Government/Admin build
menu. All the new aesthetic buildings use the statistics for small statues, medium
statues or large statues, whichever matches their size. The build menus have been
rearranged a bit to facilitate these new options – find gardens and plazas in the
Government/Admin menu instead of the Engineering menu. Paths can also be rotated
via the Rotate hotkey (by default, “R”). Names of decoration/ornament buildings
are now displayed on top of the screen to facilitate the navigation through variants via
the rotation key (only if warnings are switched on under Help).
Garden Walls, Hedges, and Garden Gates:

A new decorative addition, Garden Walls or Hedges become gates
when built over roads. These gates act as a roadblock, complete with
walker permission settings.
Paths, Parks and Trees are buildings, not terrain. They cannot be travelled by walkers
(except Garden gates). They are, however, click and draggable – like gardens and
plazas – for easy placement. Think of them as small statues, not as alternate paths for
walkers. We hope to achieve new terrain types in a future version of Augustus, as well
as add many more ornamental options.

Appendix I : More Numbers
Note: All following production values are for buildings producing at 100% efficiency.
1 cartload = 100 units.
● Food production
○ Non-wheat farm = 9.6 cartloads / year
○ Wheat farm = 19.2 cartloads (central and desert climate), 9.6 cartloads (northern
climate) / year
○ Wharf maximum fish catch = 33.7 cartloads / year, for an optimal fishing point
distance, granary placement and available space for storage. A more reasonable
average catch value is between 17.3 and 20.6 cartloads / year, depending on the
distance to the fishing point.
● Food consumption
○ 0.5 unit per citizen per month (remaining food rounded down).
○ If multiple types of food are consumed in a house, each type of food is consumed
equally, until reaching the required monthly food consumption.
Ex: a house with 80 dwellers consumes 40 units of food per month. If it's
provided with two types of food (e.g. wheat and fish), 20 wheat and 20 fish will
be consumed each month.
● Raw material & goods production

○ Raw material building = 9.6 cartloads / year
(except Marble Quarry = 4.8 cartloads / year)
○ Workshop = 4.8 cartloads / year
● Goods consumption
○ 2 units per house per month, whatever is the number of dwellers.
○ 4 units of wine for a house consuming 2 types of wines.
In summary:
● A non-wheat farm can feed 160 people / year.
● A wheat farm can feed 320 people / year (central and desert climate), or 160 people
/ year (northern climate)
● One raw material building can supply two workshops.
● One workshop can support the goods consumption of 20 houses per year.
