Send them to Cantrellia Prime if no one else requests them. I only need/want them to help me kill off any scouting parties that might come by so you're not very likely to get any experience.
I'm building a second granary so if you have wheat to spare, TF2 will take it. I'm going to have to have a steady stream of crop to sustain all those troops..
Troops:
500 Scouts
4940 Legionnaires
7789 Praetorians
815 Equites Imperatoris
30 Equites Caesaris
400 Equites Legati
920 Imperians
Like a2jfreak said though, the best food/ defense are Legionnaires and Praetorians. With 6 wheat, you can have 2 spearmen and 2 paladins. That's 470 total defensive points. With the same 6 wheat, you get 3 Legionnaires and Praetorians and 555 defensive points.
Cost, though, goes to the Spearmen and Paladins but only by a bit... 2 of each is only 2690 resources. 3 Legionnaires and Praetorians equals 2700. Real close.
Research time?...
2 of each Spear/Paladin = 147 minutes but they CAN be trained at the same so really it's 73 minutes for 2 of each...
3 of each Legion/Praet = 207 minutes and they must be done sequentially so a total of 207 minutes.
So.... you want to build a defense fast, paladins and spearmen. You want to host the most with a limited wheat base, Legion/praetor.
What if you go all prae? I was planning on getting armor and blacksmith upgrades for Imperians (for offense) and praetorians (for defense) while ignoring legionnaires for now.
Bah, he got Roadblock two hours before Q's raid and defended against it. :o I also didn't have my troops in the village at the time as a result. Oh well. I DID manage to remove the Blacksmith and Academy with Beachhead's catapults, so it wasn't a total wash
Freed up my settlers to found a new village at the outpost!
Jiriki IGM'd me telling me that I had better have sent a ton of troops. I just replied, with my comedic tone, that it was all part of my plan to make him delete his account. I told him that he earned it and we could not defend it properly since it was so far out there.
I he's planning on coming back, he better bring a **** load more then what he saw in the attack report. I just sent in another 1000 Imperatoris and have another 5 reinforcements on their way totaling another few thousand troops. Keeping the grain up has been pretty easy so far with you guys who have been loading me and the constant deliveries from my other villages, especially, the 15 cropper.
Ahhhhh... I think Zero may start to see that we are not going to roll over. We are still no match but without several of their big hitters helping, it's gonna cost them a fair bit. I hope they realize that we aren't a threat to them and not likely to stab them in the back.
However, they keep sticking the bees nest, we will swarm and sting them!!!
It's like the docile llama. They look cute and fluffy but they can spit directly in your eye and kick you when you're wiping your eyes. Not enough to kill you just really hurt.

Yeah, I'm going to pull those and the Imperatoris and replace them with Legions and Praetorians as their made.

Yeah, they all died. No biggie.
didn't do too well, did he?

I'm going to pretty much sink every resource I have in TF1 to constantly fortifying TF2. I'm thinking about 25k worth of defensive troops.
Flint is currently gearing up; by the time the Natars roll around, it will damn near take a wing of them to capture it.
