Great Browser Game - Travian

Yes, it might be worth keeping the exact details down a tad. I doubt it will matter as they can just scout us to find out most of the info, but still, later on, it will be more important.

Keep posting pop and co-ords so we can get a list together etc.

Good work. You are a true warrior and a top secret agent.

I've been farming a guy from the UP alliance for 24hours+.

He has made no attempt to hide resources/defend, and i'm only going with 10 macemen a raid.

Overnight the alliance went from 4 down to 3 members and no population growth from the others. ( i'm assuming it's dead )

So possible targets :

0mouse Village - Pop 40 - ( -57 | -45 ) - Romans
bluemidgets Village - Pop 80 - ( -52 | -14 ) - Romans

If anyone is close ?

Just had a pretty amusing encounter with a neighbour. I farmed him dry last night so he's out for revenge

. About half an hour ago I got into bed for a little power-nap but I couldn't nod off. I logged onto travian to see an attack was coming into my village within the next 3 minutes! I spent up all my resources into troops, put the excess wheat onto the market, waited until the last 30 seconds then sent all my troops out minus my scouts. Once the attack was over, I canceled the attack and the troops came back. The git killed my three scouts and took 100 wheat :mad:

(seems to take your current auction off the market when you get attacked). I sent the lads round and this happend:

I killed 11 of his macemen along with a hero yesterday too. That'll teach im'!

Edit

LOL, just this second he has joined an alliance. Might have to start attacking his team mates to ensure they don't attack me.

Indeed, I read the faq, they do this so that the marketplace isn't used as an extra cranny

Do you know, I've had a tough day Travian wise. It takes a lot of effort to help empty someones warehouse when they have it full at 4000 wood, 4000 clay and 4000 iron. My troops have been busy.

That's a nice little haul

Haven't bothered with an embassy yet though, so warn me if you send an invite out.

This bloke's alliance seems to be a wing of Scar. I need to put on my diplomatic hat or I'm going to get my **** handed to me

Helium_Junkie · 9 Mar 2007 at 16:12

Soooo, what does a hero do for me?
Say I train an axe hero man dude, and send him raiding.
Is he better than sending a normal axe man? Is he better than, say, 10?
Will he kill more?
Whats the point?

ca9phoenix · 9 Mar 2007 at 16:14

Heroes are excellent. I believe a level 0 axemen would equal around 20. You get skill points (5 each level) which you can place in offense, defense and other related attribrutes.

I'm aiming for an axemen hero. I'm going to spec him for defense as Teutons basic defense sucks against infantry basically. Not that axemen are excellent against infantry but it's something to realistically aim for I guess.

Send him a message with typo's and say you're new to the game.

Apologise and sign off with a female/girl * name.

Worked for me.

Mark

( Then stick him on the hit-list for later :eek:

)

* My apologies to the female members ( but it does work )

Great, we are going to be an alliance of dodgy blokes who pretend to be girls. Great tactic tho', I love it!
