For phantom: Of course you're regarded as "family" . YOU are caesar. LOL
as to the city size, It really depends on the map. If the river runs across from side to side, in a reasonablly straight line, and somewhere in the middle, then 40K is possible. Hard to get "Culture" ratings very high with that many people.
30K is usually do-able, and "culture" can usually be obtained to the 70+ mark.
However, I run the game with 20K on every province and can obtain 96 - 99 % Culture consistantly.
for cagemalion, my first piece of advice is to try and "explore" the CD. Open "My Computor" and click on the drive letter. If the CD can be read, then exploring the CD will show files and folders.
If this does not work, then your CD is damaged and you're Basically SOL. Sorry.
And for everyone else that has been having problems, I really have no good answers. I'm running XP. I opened a DOS Command Prompt, inserted the CD, ran "Autorun" and followed the DOS install process.
To run the game, I click START, RUN, and type the path\filename.
Everything works.
Back to phantom, do you have the update patch? Do you get the availabliity to "Continue as Caesar"?
email me; pls
I can send you some savegame files to show my city building plans to use property effectively. Or as effectively as I've been able to develop. LOL
