nice catas! you can use it to clear out some of the ppl with high cranny.. just send them out to random and hope for the best.. pray that you takes out the cranny and not the warehouse
Doesn't work really. By random aiming you'll destroy everything that makes the farm worthwile before you get the cranny. Furthermore cranny lvl costs are a joke really, so he can easily build faster than you destroy.
Rather try to make him go inactive by destroying all the buildings he needs while you don't ( him being a farm)- main building, marketplace, rax, stables etc...

I have enough farms. How do you organize your raids? Scripts? I have an excel sheet of farms, and I just plug coords in. The database of each travian server is available to everyone and updated daily. Thus a simple search routine can find all villages that haven't grown for the last few days (e.g. player inactive) or have grown very little (player not very active). Both make good farms. A friend of mine programed a "mask" for the firefox. You could enter your villages coords there and it would make a list of inactive/semiactive villages starting with the closest. The villages names were direct links to the "send troops" screen. Took 3 clicks with the mouse to send troops to a farm, quite convenient if you ask me. Wow that's awesome...where to get it?

Don't think he made it public, I'll ask though.
Edit:
Well, he can't really release it. It isn't completly save and worked via his own webspace and he can neither handle the traffic nor update the mask daily (he'd have to otherwise your mask would be outdated after a week).
He suggested some easy measures though.
You could bookmark the -send troops- screen for each of your permanent farms or even bookmark the screen with the amount troops you usually send to each farm (he says you'd prolly need some firefox extensions like auto-fill or sth. for that).
I'm sure one of you is familiar with programing, databases and stuff and could provide all of you with something similar to his stuff.

That's a good idea, thanks.
Whoever is getting attacked, tell them to give you back the resources they stole or else they will get catapulted to death. Get an embassy up to join our alliance so that they will believe you.

I got a level 14 Main Building because I thought it was level 15 Main Building instead of Academy that lets you research cata tech.
Anything I can use it for?

I've got acad lv13 going up, but I so want to build more horses...difficult decisions...
|
Well, main building makes all you build everything else faster, so it can never hurt. Oneofthem, get more horses. Catas don't bring you any income.

yea, i think at max lv main, you get something like 50% construction time. That really helps out in everything you do, really. Taking 2 hours to level a field is just no thnx

ok a bunch of newbie questions
first off, i'm teuton
i'm starting to make clubbers now and all my fields are at 3 (except iron)
i feel the hurt in crops now so i'm thinking i need to upgrade crop fields
but i also want to build up a big army so i can do constant raids
what's the proper balance between fields/army? should i just mass clubbers and just raid all the time?
and what is the next major goal at this point? i.e. more clubbers (if so, upto how many?), upgrading fields (if so, upto what level?), or teching/buildings?
thx in advance for helpful advice
|
meh, depends on how many people you have in your area to raid. if you have a lot, you can be like kazanksy and get like 2500 clubs. Raiding will be your main source of income. You're going to want to eventually tech to pallies.
|
No, it depends on how active you are. You can always expand your raiding range. If you have a lot of time, forget all your fields except crop and just mass clubbers. You really don't need to tech at all, at least not anytime soon. Maybe get some spears if you want to feel safe, but you probably won't need them.
Crop fields are important, but if you stay active and raid a lot, it's ok to have a negative crop production. If you don't, then it means you don't have enough units. You really don't have much of a goal right now except just to raid.

umm, so i registered for server 4 too, cuz no one could give me a definitive answer on whether s4 or s5 would be better.
upgrading fields isnt exactly time-consuming, so i'll just choose to play only one of those 2 accounts when ive got some more information on what the best choice is.
im pfff at -90|228
btw, if its possible to send me resources and anyone can spare any, it would be more then welcome

Hey lazy assholes with 3+ days inactive (I'm looking at you OverTheUnder) - GET A SITTER!

Im currently upping my buildlings now, but have run out on wood. Im like 60 pop.. if anyone got some extra wood, I would very much like to trade for clay/iron/crop  . I need about 2-300 wood or so!
|
Everyone needs wood. It's a good idea to make extra woodchoppers to trade. You can easily get iron 2 for 1 with wood.
