Well, after a few PMs and patiently waiting, we have been granted our own forum section on TeamLiquid.net. It's not private, so I'm talking to the admins some more.

A big thank you to Nazgul and Meat for allowing this on their site.


http://www.travian.com

Continuing from the old thread.
Since our cult leader FakeSteve seems to be banned for longer than expected, this is a new, updated thread for those who play Travian.

Simple basics to help you setup an account:
1. Sign up on Server 4
2. Locate yourself in the NORTHWEST quadrant. (If you situate yourself in any other quadrant, we will ignore you.)
3. Select one of the three races. Click on "Information" or the "FAQ" on the front page.
And now you're set to go.

Starting out:
- The first six to eight days, you will be upgrading fields only. Do not build any buildings. I cannot stress this enough. To use an analogy from someone in the old thread, upgrading fields is like building SCVs, you want to time it right. You don't want to build a supply depot with your 6th SCV, you want to wait until later.
- Level all the same type of fields evenly. If you have 2111 wood fields, you want to get the three level 1 fields to 2, before upgrading that level 2 field to 3.
- You want to keep a production ratio of 10:12:8:6 for wood:clay:iron:crop. This is a guideline that I personally used and it worked better than just upgrading all your fields evenly, all at the same time.
- By the time you hit all of your fields at least level 3 or higher, start upgrading your main building to level 3, then get a barracks. Pump a few units (initially about 6 legs, 14 phalanx, 10 clubbers) and start raiding the smaller population locals.

Alliances:
Self-explanatory. We play for the glory that is TeamLiquid.net. Help each other, in building and from attacks.

These are guidelines for where you belong and who to PM on Travian if you want to join an alliance.
-TL-: (0|positive) to (-50|positive)
TL.net1: (-51|positive) to (-150|positive)

3.4.06: There seems to be a surprising number of people who don't know how to use the alliance forums, so here's how.
Click on your Embassy => click on "to the alliance menu" => "Forum"
Please talk with your alliance. Communication is a good thing. Go say hi to them.

3.8.06:
Consider this the first war for TL.net

With a number of TL.net1 members finishing up Catapult tech, this is a list of people that we are planning to hit with siege.

Ok, I'll do a run through of what's going on recently and what I think we should do to handle it.

A few days ago lil.sis attacked a 4 pop guy, who is a friend of a Mafia-N member. The Mafia-N member is across the quadrant and is probably sending clubbers, or at best calvary, to attack lil.sis. Mafia is not that strong but they are massive in size. And right now, they could cause major damage to us, especially TL.net3, if we go into war with them right now.
I say we try to end this as soon as we can. TL.net3 is already engaging in a war against SWolf. They are not fit to fight a two front war at the moment. Kazansky, ROM, and Ascelon (Anihc, NoName, and oneofthem, respectively) have reached catapult tech and will be attacking SWolf as well. It would be incredibly burdening for them if we start a war with Mafia and have our members try to retaliate and provide support.

On the smaller issue of AMF, Psyren attacked a few AMF-NW member earlier this week and they decided to retal on him. Psyren wasn't on TL.net3 tag then but he is now. AMF lost over 150 troops trying to attack Psyren. Before the attacks, AMF was allied with -TL- and was requesting alliance with TL.net1. After this incident, I've decided to dissolve the alliance with AMF, and I suggest that TL.net1 and TL.net3 do the same. Psyren was the aggressor but we don't allow any of our members get attacked and remain allied to that alliance.

3.15.06
Alright, I am going to say this once. Stop communicating with people you attack. Apparently the Admins/Mods of Travian have strict rules about blackmail, etc. Don't ask for reinbursements for what you lose, ever. If you got hit, and you're annoyed, post the coordinates and we'll hit back even harder.

Can you explain the 10:12:8:6 thing more? I've started upgrading my fields, but apparently not in the correct ratio. I have like four L1 crops, three L1 clays, and one L1 metal and wood field each. T_T

Production ratio. 10:12:8:6 is the base line. Right now you have too much crop and not enough wood.

You should add this to yor first post. Quite handy: http://img276.imageshack.us/my.php?image=buildingsandunitsv39ek.jpg


About the fields. Depends on what you are doing. Basically the ratios that Illusions gave work for the first weeks of play.

Upgrading buildings takes usually LOW cost on what you are upgrading and high cost in the rest. In this orden Clay/Wood/Iron/Crop

So, for example, if you want to upgrade a wood field it would take little wood, but more of the other resources in the order given. (usually).

So upgrading in that ratio would let you to upgrade quite constantly without having to wait for more resources.

Its like in BW most units takes more minerals than gas, so you want more mineral than gas.

When after 1/2 weeks aprox you start building and army you have to cehck the building cost and upgrade the fields you will be needing.

For example teuton's clubswingers cost:
95 wood 75 clay 40 iron irrc
But Roman's Leggionaires cost more iron than wood and clay. So if you as a Roman want to make loads of Leggis to raid, you must have a good iron income (as well as crop to sustain your troops).

But if you are a teuton and want to make clubswingers, you must upgrade wood the most.

You have aprox 7 days of newbie protection. You can either go field leveling and then make troops to raid.
Or play making crannys to hide when being raided.


Try to level fields as much as possible, but dont be too rgeedy as too be unprotected when protection vanishes, kinda like ZvP .
Also check your surrounding towns, if there are almost no people, take the initiative with other TL people and own the scene. If there are some big citties already play it safe and try to get more fields than them but without leaving protection behind.

205, all the 250+s obviously have godlike micro
I grew pretty quick though. Was 2nd lowest when I joined tl.net1 :D

e.g. Kazansky has 2 villages, like 500 clubswingers, 50 paladins (omghax)
Ascelon has 40ish EIs, 30 legs, 2 villages (omghax)
OverTheUnder has 55 TT's (omghax)
nvzero has like 100+ legs + imperians (omghax)

Added question for bonus points: how do you calculate a mixed race defence in the combat simulator? I wanna take on a 80 clubswinger + 15 phalanx town after I expand
its Fishing~

You can't calculate mixed race defense unless you pay for it via TravianPLUS.

And the normal battle calculator can't even take into consideration upgrades or city walls.
