Pharaoh
installed on
your computer before installing
Cleopatra.
To install
Cleopatra
, insert the
Cleopatra
CD into your CD-ROM drive. Windows’ AutoPlay function should start, and you’ll see a screen with four buttons: Install, Uninstall, Play and Quit. Click on “Install” to get started. If AutoPlay does not work on your computer, find the icon for your CD-ROM drive, double click on it, and then double click on the file called “Setup.exe” to start the installation process.

among the statues and decide which direction the statue should face by pressing the “R” key.
Major Plagues
Four Major Plagues can strike your city: River of Blood, Plague of Frogs, Hailstorm, and Plague of Locusts. An angry god may send a Major Plague to your city, or they could happen for no reason at all. For more detailed information about Plague and the new Major Plagues, see the in-game help topic entitled “Plagues.”
Faster Pyramid Construction
All types of Pyramid (brick, stepped, bent, and regular) and Mastabas can now be built more rapidly if you pay devoted homage to the gods in a mission. In missions where Pyramids or Mastabas are present, any blessing from one of the five gods may be converted into a boost to the early stages of your monument construction project. Select whether or not you wish to play with this feature by using the "Pyramid Speedup" entry on the Options menu.
Monuments
The new monuments you can build in
Cleopatra
missions include four types of Royal Burial Tombs (small, medium, large and grand), the Temple of Abu Simbel, the Pharos Lighthouse, Alexandria’s Great Library and the Caesareum.
Cliffs
The cliffs in the Valley of the Kings and at Abu Simbel provide good sites to build Royal Burial Tombs and the Temple of Abu Simbel. No other structure can be built on cliffs. People also cannot pass over this rugged terrain and must walk around it.
Missions” button displays a chronological list of all missions in the game, allowing you to play any single mission. If the selected mission has been played, your score in that mission and the mission summary are displayed. If you are new to
Pharaoh,
it would be wise to begin with the Pre-Dynastic Period and Archaic Period cam­paigns. These campaigns contain valuable tutorials that will help you master
Pharaoh
and
Cleopatra.
Notification Control
“Popup Messages” has been added to the Options Menu that gives you control over how you receive messages during play. The dialog box displays the following:
Flood Messages Price Changes Population Messages Trade Level Changes Compliance Now Possible Wage Changes Kingdom Standing Climbs Disease Strikes Festivals Malaria Minor Blessings
When clicked, the name of the event turns yellow. A “yellow” event no longer dis­plays a dialog box during play that has to be clicked shut. Instead, a passing mes­sage appears briefly along the top of the map. Don’t be surprised by one of these selections: if you highlight the “Compliance Now Possible” event, goods are automatically removed from your Storage Yard and sent to the requesting city!
Beautification
Cleopatra
offers four choices of each size of statue. You can choose

Survival Mission: Your city must still exist when the mission automatically ends at the end of the given time limit,
and
you must meet or exceed all required ratings.
The survival missions are Migdol, Tanis, Maritis and Actium.
Time Limit Mission: You win immediately upon meeting or exceeding all required rat­ings. If you have not met the rating requirements by the end of the time limit, you will have to restart the mission and try again. The time limit missions are Tut in the Valley, Qadesh and Alexandria.
The amount of time you have left, listed in months, is noted in red in the upper left corner of the screen.
Entertainment
Zoos provide a place for your citizens to view wild animals without the fear of being mauled by them! A Zoo needs game meat and straw for feeding the beasts and pro­vides entertainment for 7,500 people. Any mission requir­ing a Culture Rating of 75 or more needs at least one Zoo.
Changes to Original Missions
The Zoo is now available in the original game missions Bubastis and Hetepsenusret. It is necessary to build at least one Zoo in each of these missions in order to attain the required Culture Rating.
Family Savings, Troop & Monument Carry-Over (campaigns only)
Some
Cleopatra
missions allow you to carry over your family savings, monuments
Enemies
Assyrians, Persians, Phoenicians and Romans will do their best to destroy your cities. The Romans, however, are occasional allies. In one mission, you play as Caesar’s Romans – allied with Cleopatra – fighting her brother’s rebellious Egyptian army.
Beasts
In the arid regions you will need to watch out for scorpions. In the normal climes you must be wary of roaming lions, and in the tropical regions look out for deadly asps!
Commodities
New commodities that you will see are henna, oil, lamps, paint and white marble.
Industries
New industries include the Paint Maker, Lamp Maker, Artisans’ Guild, and Henna Farm – all necessary for putting the lavish finishing touches on a Royal Burial Tomb.
Please see the previous two pages for a detailed diagram showing the relationships between these new industries and commodities. Note that tomb construction requires paint and plaster at the Artisans' Guild, lamps in Storage Yards that labor­ers can haul to the tomb site, and a Stonemasons’ Guild.
Survival & Time Limit Missions
Several missions included with
Cleopatra
have a time limit. There are two types of
timed missions:

and even troops! If troops are carried over, you will see a message at the start of the mission stating that some of your loyal soldiers have returned. The type(s) of soldiers (archer, infantry, or charioteer) will also be specified. If you immediately place the appropriate fort(s), your best troops of that type from the previous mission will enter and march toward their fort. Monuments will only be carried over into a subsequent mission if the same map (Deir el Medina or Alexandria) is being used. Beware of tomb robbers who may plunder these ancient monuments and drive down your Kingdom Rating!
