Great Browser Game - Travian

Yeah, sorry, 2 places were filled this morning. Another 3 places should be ready right after lunch time today.

Everybody needs to focus on building up their cranny and making sure there is very little to steal. Spend your resources on your fields. Keep a fairly even balance and make sure your wheat income is positive.

When you start having some spare resources, build a barracks and a few troops and start raiding.

No wonder my cranny wasnt working i forgot to build a warehouse :P

Do you definitely need a warehouse for the cranny to work mate?

I have just been building my cranny up to level 5, don't have a warehouse yet.

Perhaps it was a Teuton player raiding you (cranny only hides 66% of stated value from Teuton players).

Anyone confirm this?

If so, I had better build a warehouse asap!
 
A cranny will work without a warehouse, I'm fairly sure. Until you have a level 7/8 cranny, focus on no other buildings.

Our #1 aim as an alliance is to make sure we are not seen as soft targets.

EDIT: Great FAQ for those of you who have not seen it: http://help.travian.com/index.php

Hey, Molinari, we're neighbours! Maybe we can team up against the Rulers.. or (more likely) hide in our Crannys.

At what point should I stop upgrading resources and start concentrating on buildings? I'm mostly on 2s with a few 3s atm.
 
Constantly getting attacked by the #8 ranked player :( Having to constantly keep on building stuff to keep my stock levels within the Cranny allowance.

Thats not so bad, I mean, if he isn't benefitting from it too much, then he will have to look elsewhere as there will be better targets, and the top players need to work hard to always bring in as much as possible to stay at the top.

EDIT: We have 3 more spaces in the alliance, grab 'em while they are hot. Also, we are up to #40 in the alliance list!

Jolly good. I'm still building up resources today but will start looking at an army from tomorrow :).
 
As the most attacked player in the alliance can anybody send me some resources so i can build my cranny up? Getting attacked again for the 6th time :( Their not even getting anything off me but i keep having to get rid of my resources meaning i don't get a chance to build anything!

I'll drink to that.

I'm after a bit of help regarding fields, is it better to make upgrade at first or to make multiples of each? I know I could just do the math but I'm incredibly lazy :(

At a rough glance, about the same. However, I personally think it is better to spread it out over each feild of each type. Small steps in each one since its quicker and so you get the benefit sooner.

There are still 3 places left in the Alliance. I don't think I will upgrade again, at least for a while. Also, as people stop playing the game, I will kick them. I know thats mean but otherwise it will hurt the allliance as a whole.

I'm up to population 36 in a few minutes. Not long to go...

Only problem is that theres a few things I want to spend resources on that don't increase the population. I can't see myself at pop. 40 until tomorrow. Let's hope n00b status isn't going to wear off too quickly!
 
Don't rush getting to pop 40 just to join the alliance, always focus on resource production and cranny. Get yourself sorted as being in the alliance is going to make no difference for a while.

OK I will boost up the cranny a bit.

Theres a couple of people with only 2 and 4 population near me. Can't wait until I can raid them and boost up my resources a bit. :D
 
I built a barracks fairly quickly. But the best people to raid are those that are barly playing, loads of people get to 10 to 25 pop and then give up. So, they will often have no cranny and 800 of each resource, ripe for the taking!
