Hey there !

I noticed Caesar III doesn't get as much Speedrunning love as it could, so I decided to give a shot. The rules seem quite simple in terms of starting the game, but there have been great mods that came out, mainly Augustus and Julius. I think there's also an Full HD patch/mod out there as well.

Julius is essentially a UI overhaul but it doesn't affect any gameplay features, whereas Augustus builds on Julius and implements new aspects in the game (such as roadblocks).

I could see Augustus being a category of it's own, but would Julius be an acceptable mod to go with ? Or does it not matter because there are hardly any runners anyways ? ^^

Thanks to anyone who responds !

Hey everyone, CaptainErable here - I discovered speedrunning only recently (compared to how long I've been playing games for), especially thanks to Summoning Salt's videos, and I thought I'd give it a shot.

My kick is around retro strategy games from the 90's/early 2000's, mostly on PC (Warcraft II, Heroes III, Caesar III, Roller Coaster Tycoon 1 & 2 - ahhh nostalgia !), so I was thinking some scenario or level run-throughs before going for full game runs.

It'll probably be a casual hobby for me, but I see it as a fun challenge to rediscover games I love and to bring back good memories for others who may be interested ! Hoping to get my first videos out in the next few weeks - I'll try and keep this updated if some of you are interested :)
