Which server are you on, as I thought the UK server didn't have mobile Travian?
 
Level 8 Cranny begins Tommorrow 1.30pm :D

Should keep me " bits " safe for a while.

Then i'll start planning some offence.
 
Great work on the ally map looks like we are spread across the whole map :-) makes for some good raiding i think looking at that map that one ally is right making wings just wont work very well im uping my building as fast as possible to try and gain more raiding loot when i get over 1200 if any one nneds some loans just shout (not sure how u transfer it)
 
I'm on my third day now and maybe I've missed something but I've never got enough resurces to begin building any buildings. AT the start I built a grainery and a warehouse. and since then I've been trying to up grade my resources but after about 2 upgrades I don't have enough resources to do anything else for hours and hours.

On a second account, I'm on my second day and on that oner I've been just working on my resources but I'm still having the exact same problem. I upgrade maybe one or two then that's it for a good few hours till I have enough resources.

Does everyone have this problem or have I gone about it badly???

There is no point in upgrading your granary or warehouse until you actually need the extra space. At the start, it takes ages to get 800 resources and everything is quite cheap, so just spend it. Basically, just focus on resource production and a few levels of cranny. Even then, don't worry about the cranny until a few days in, as you can't get attacked for 5 days after starting, and the best defense is having nothing to steal. Yes, it is slow going at the start.
 
Thanks for that, I realise now that I shouldn't really have built the grainery or warehouse, I didn't really know what i was doing to begin with, hence the second account which I doing as you mentioned, just upgrading resources.

I'll just persevere for now and see how I go.

I've just built my barracks so I can start getting a raiding party ready. At the moment I'm on around 30 of each resource an hour so I have to wait for ages between building stuff. Hopefully a few raids will bring some much needed resources home :). Obviously I'll be missing the ones in alliances, but what is the best way of picking villages to raid??
 
Right, another level of my embassy will be started soon and built before 1pm today. Post here if you want an invite still.

EDIT: I find the best villages to raid are those close to you that are around the 20 pop mark. It is highly unlikely they have troops, or a big cranny, so most of the resources are ripe for the taking.

I would suggest avoiding Gaul villages mate, I play as the Gauls and for next to no resources you can build a trapper and 10 traps, which have proven highly effective against several players that have tried to raid me (all of their troops captured).

Asides from that, the Teutons 1st unit is very weak in defence so it may be worth attacking a small Teuton village if you are able to, the Romans 1st unit is reasonable in defence, the Gauls very strong.

Hope this helps :)
 
Is everyone aware that you can raid oasis areas on the map (unoccupied) and get 400 of each resource???? most only have a few rats to kill and for those stating anew dont forget to us the Plus gold to increase resources by 25% for 7 days hope this helps, you can also just raid rather than attack to gain resouces with little or no loss of troops.
 
Started playing this a few days ago, I'm already about to be attacked by the top player, who is 2 squares away from me. Oh joy! :eek:

This is incorrect, its a random amount between 2 and 14 days :D

If your lucky you have 2 weeks of no threat... Unlucky and its only 2 days (like me)

I only had 3 traps, no defenders and a palisade but he didn't grab any bounty after sending about 40 troops. Traps caught 3 troops! :D

I have 4 days beginner protection, not sure if that is finished or not though. Can people attack you with it, just nothing happens like above?
