Aqueducts: You may place a length of aqueduct by

clicking on a line of map squares, one at a time, or by

dragging across a map area while holding your mouse

button down. An aqueduct can only be used to send

water from one reservoir to another reservoir. In this

way, you can send water all over your city. You cannot

connect aqueducts to Fountains or Wells.

Wells: A well is a cheap way to create a water supply

for a relatively small area. Wells do not create any pipe

access. They can be built anywhere, but they only

supply a primitive water supply that will limit land

values.

Rivers: Rivers can serve as a primitive water supply for

people along its banks, but people do not like this, and

it will severely limit land values.

The following is a good way to begin to create a water

system:

1) Place a reservoir next to a river.

2) Click on the pull down menu above the Overview

Map, select the Color Overlay Map for Water, and

click on the three-colored Legend Square. You should

see a color-coded area of water supply, and a

further-reaching area of pipe access (the smaller

area will be purple, because it contains both

types). Make sure that pause is turned off for at

least a moment so that the game can register

any changes.

3) Place a fountain on the Main Map within

the reservoir’s range of pipe access. Then

check the Overview Map again. You should
