    Note that you may want to spread out just a little at the outpost. Personally, I'm planning my locations so there's 1-2 oases per village. :)

    Yeppers, I'm a little out of the way from the rest of you so I can take advantage of the oases in my tiles.

    i'm not sure i i'll be able to get oases, since my actual troops are so far from the outpost.
    i can't do what i'm going to do and send a massive overnight raid to destroy animals in nearby oases to my 15c.
    (both iron/wheat oases, i find those the easiest to conquer, and there's also a 25% wheat and 50% wheat :) )

    I landed on a 6 cropper to begin with. My second village will be 15 cropper if I can get one.

    ok, sorry to be a bother...
    but i'm going for (-70,285)

    i'm gonna take a 50% iron oasis, so that troops can be produced well.
    plus they're generally the easiest to capture, simple little animals.

    OK, just note I'm planning on taking both of the iron/wheat split oases by there. My 15-cropper definitely needs wheat oases. :)

    For the update:

    -68|277 - TBonZ - Arrived - "TF3"

    By the way, in case your wondering, TF stands for Terry Fortress, not Team. ;D

    ok, i have 2 settlers, and should have the 3rd soon. then i'll take my 15c.

    i'll mainly focus on building up the residence, and in about a week i should be ready to join the outpost.

    i'll have both my current villages firing all resources at the 15c... since it can't supply itself ever.
    but it CAN have tens of thousands of troops in its walls, and still with tonnes of wheat production :)

    Keebs, I'll be making a residence in a couple days, I need more culture points anyway... where d'ya want me to put it?

    Up to you, mate. If you want to come out to the outpost I can at least (hopefully) provide some protection. Just space out a little bit if you want oases. :)

    How do you know the bonus that the oasis gives you before you take it?

    It'll be a few days but I think I'll go for -76, 284
    It's unfortunate that I just got to the powerbase and I already have to move to the outpost ;D

    Please make sure every village in the outpost has scouts in it. We need to know immediately if someone peeks at us. I can send 'em if you need 'em.

    Decorus Piscis is on residence level 3 and rising.
    it is being easily supplied by the nearby 9c, Invisivillage.
    settlers should be ready by the weekend hopefully :)

    Bakery Hotel is churning out troops as much as possible.

    I need to think of a creative name for the 4th outpost village...

    EDIT:
    just remembered its a holiday friday/monday...
    that'll make settlers ready sooner, as i'll be playing travian in between working on my physics project

    try resonance in RCL circuits.
    the wikipedia page for it can fry your mind
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RLC_circuit

    but anyway...
    the residence is level 7 now :)

    hopefully 10 by tomorrow.

    Ok, I have one settler, where would be a good place to send it so that it can be well defended until I make two more?

    reinforce either here
    (-258,8)
    or here
    (-269,9)

    its safe in the journey, and it can be sent back to arrive when you want.
    neither of those have ever been attacked ever since noone is anywhere nearby, except Ashyra.
    but he's a friend, and he just quit...

    bummer...
    speed really is of the essence if you want to ensure safety of settlers.

    ok, update:
    all 3 settlers ready and its a 33 hour journey...
    so they'll get to their destination at 11.30pm GMT tomorrow...
    the spot chosen is (-71,276) as I want the iron/wheat oasis at (-72,273)
    :)

    Are there any oases left near the outpost? It's not imperative, but if there is one I won't say no :tongue:
  • Invisible-MuffinInvisible-Muffin Scotland
    edited March 2008
    there are plenty for everyone at the moment.
    and you don't need to be directly next to the other villages, space out a little if you want an oasis.

    QFT. It's easy to figure out which oases my villages will be taking - look at which resource they have most of, then locate the closest oasis of that type. :)

    Am I ok to take -74 | 285 when settlers are available?
