    So, What is the best tribe to start out with?
    I have read this entire thread to get a little info on it.
    I read the Home site rules of the game.
    Anything I should know before registering?

    I'm a Gaul, dunno about you guys :tongue: Gauls get double cranny storage, so if we get raided the enemy takes less resources.

    Speed3x server, Northwest. That's the most important. Which tribe you pick is up to you based on how you want to play; I think they're decently balanced.

    Hey Hawk :)

    Gauls = best defense
    Teutons = best offense
    Romans = fastest builders/balanced

    This game tends to be pretty aggressive, so I went Gauls to prevent the frustration of getting repeatedly raped for resources by much bigger players. It's worked out well so far.

    I am now determined to play without borrowing any more resources unless it's for something really important :tongue:

    HALP! I meant to attack a village and sent them as reinforcements- how do I get them back?

    In your Rally point screen, there should be a red X displayed in the info window for your troops. The x makes them come back.

    when they get there, recall them and then when they return, attack them.

    Awesome :D Thanks.

    I igm'd the guy and he said he was transfering to travian.de, so I could attack him all I want :tongue:

    For Felix, our powebase so far:

    attachment.php?attachmentid=24979&stc=1&d=1204910357

    Shipwreck is the third village you built (9-cropper). It controls the wood oasis in the bottom left, and the iron on the right. It's working on taking the clay/wheat one next to the iron soon. :cool:

    The small blue villages are (from left to right) Broady, Q, and Blackhawk's secondary villages.

    The top left yellow village is my latest expansion, village #6 :) Village #5 was placed slightly south of the powerbase to take advantage of an oasis-rich area with few large players nearby. (5 & 6 were both made the same day, actually)

    What?

    I scounted someone and they have 15 legionnaires and a hero. What would I need to take that on, roughly? I have a small army :tongue:

    Depends on how skilled his legionnaires are. How high his hero is. How much he's built up his city wall. Even with all that considered, I'd say 500 legionnaires should take him out! :)
  • HarudathHarudath Great Britain Icrontian
    edited March 2008
    Heh, well, he has 80 population total and he's grown by 14 over about 5 days. I doubt his legionnaires are that skilled. Or am I assuming too much?
  • LincLinc Owner Detroit Icrontian

    It's probably a safe assumption he hasn't been sinking the time/resources to upgrade them highly. I'd try at least 3:1 against 'em to minimize your losses.

    Ok, thanks :D

    Can't use the { } for {IC}Hawk.
    How are you guys setting your names?
    Are you using the IC to be assoc with the clan/tribe or whatever it's called?
    And where should I put my village?
    It lets you pick the area correct?
    Already set the Speed3x server, Northwest.

    "Northwest" is as specific a location as you can specify.

    {IC} is the name of our alliance, so there's no need for it in your username. You'll be able to join our alliance after building an embassy.

    You only choose the section, ie northwest. Just put Hawk (If it's available) and it'll add an {IC} tag to your name once you've made an embassy and joined the {IC} alliance :D

    "Hawk" looks as though it's taken, but I will hook you up with an invite once I know your in-game name :) Or one of the service crew will assist you ;)

    EDIT: Too quick for me ;) Sent !
