Release Information

Game Notes:

Patrician III is a real-time trading simulation featuring elements of
construction and the historical background of maritime trade in Northern
Europe during the 1300's. As a resident of a medieval town, your goal is
to rise from the status of a simple, insignificant trader to that of a
Patrician and perhaps even become the head of the Hanseatic League.
You can raise your standing through town improvement and diplomacy
or fill your coffers through piracy and smuggling

Features:

* New Map-Editor - Enables the gamer to create his own maps to play on.
Between 16 and 25 towns from a pool of 40 towns can be selected for
single and multiplayer games.
* Establish and build your own towns - Up to two new towns can be built
by the player during a game.
* Discover and destroy pirate villages - Prove that you are worthy of
your career.
* Enhanced options for expeditions: Enhanced and detailed orders for
your captains, signature of contracts with far away towns, enhanced
search areas to look for new business opportunities.
* New seasonal and enhanced weather effects: Rain, snow, ice, trees
and bushes in bloom create a new sensation of time and also have an
impact on production and transportation.
* With the new buildings, animated trees, animals and horse coaches,
Patrician Gold is one of the most beautiful and visually overwhelming
trading games of all times.
* Six new functional buildings enhance the player's spectrum of
options (warehouses, mints, elementary schools, barns...)
* Newly designed artificial intelligence adjusts itself according to
the player's experience and ability. This allows for a tougher
challenge with the computer controlled opponents.
* New land routes for trading are now possible between certain cities,
especially the famous land trade route between Hamburg and Bremen
which was demanded by gamers...
* Enhanced trading options offer more comfort and configurability.
The store keeper controls purchases and sales, and you can, for
example, load and save your automatic trade routes.
* Ships are displayed with detailed damage models, so you can now
easily see the condition of every ship.
* All production sites have been reworked, remodelled and enhanced
with new animations. Many production sites can now be combined
to improve the visual character of certain units, especially farms.
The cities have also been enhanced and now offer more ground to
build new houses and businesses.
* Towndefence has been enhanced; city defence towers, town gates
and harbour towers can be upgraded. As Lord Mayor you can now try
to negotiate with the besiegers or order a counterattack.
* As Lord Mayor you can define the tax rates and ensure the
survival of your hometown.
