Patrician 3 is a trading strategy game with some city building
elements. I suspect there are other, better games of this type out
there, but this one is very good for running on low-end system (i.e.
my work machine 
).
I rather enjoy it, but it can be a bit ... complex. So I'm trying
to put together a strategy guide, using information from
http://www.rjosephs.de/patrician/etools.html and
http://www.citybuildergames.com/index.php?topic=1284.0. Thanks to
the original people who figured this stuff out, who I haven't asked
for permission yet I'm afraid.
Unfortunately, at about the time I started this, I realized that
Port Royale 2, which is basically the same game, runs on my work
machine.
