Anyone playing on the above?

nop...but just registered... might have a look tonight when I get in

Which server? I am in the south east I think as a Gaul village!

Server 1

Grid reference?

Don't know... the email is at home for me

Will let you know

Coolio! If you are in the same grid we can create an alliance!

I'm on server1 on Map (95|-151)

where are others ?

Lum

server 1 132-117

Think I've gone a bit gun-ho... can't build anything for another 6 hours

But I do have a rat

Just been blocked at work

Ah yes the ever useful huge army of one rat! lol!
Blocked Travian? lol! Not as if you can spend loads of time on it!

Guess my resources will be good when I get home at 1830

I'm -23|-163

I'm at -47/138

180/-13

Anyone else being farmed at the moment?

I have 2 rather large villages on either side of me, and I've been attacked nine times since 5:50 yesterday morning...

I'm hoping to get my defences up quickly though..

7 times in 4 hours last night. I've upgraded my cranny so eveything is hidden

But I have made a note of who it was and will unleash hell on them when I have more than a rat in my army

I got attacked a couple of nights ago but they only took like 5 of each resource so given it costs about 150 of each resource to train a single legionnaire, it just hasnt been prudent for me to invest in defence.

i just spend my resources, so theres nothing much here fro them to take.

HAHA... I've been attacked 9 times in 2 hours... how the hell do you get enough resources to train an army???

best u start a new account there nellybear

Just to let those who didnt do so well on Server 1.

Server 7 started 3 days ago so every is on a level playing field. If you want to try again, (or u want to try Travian for the first time) this would be the server to do it on.

For the record, many thanks to Elder81 for finding this game, i'm now rocking it on Server 1, making alot of other people's lives miserable.

I have a village on Server 7 as well. (59,79) are the co-ordinates.

I'm well into this now... started a new account.. got 226 population, 55 army and level 9 hero...almost ready for a new oasis

I'm into it too, pop. 264 but I keep getting slapped at like 5am!

Webbo...before you go to bed send all your offencive army about 30/40 squares away. EG if your asleep for 8 hours, send them to attack someone 4 hours away. That way they won't get killed while your asleep and may get your some resources

Oh and build a BIG cranny

How on earth did u get a level 9 hero with only 55 army?!?

My Stats:

2 Villages
448 Popultation (not including army)
101 Population (not including army)

Village 1:

Total troops: 204
Hero: Level 2 EI (light cavalry)

Village 2:

Total troops: 10

My troops got punished a long time ago, but thanks for the cranny tip, I am building it up as we speak

Crannies are for loosers

Honestly, if you're active enough and get yourself a sitter for when you're asleep, you hardly need a cranny at all.

Who can sit when you're asleep? In the last 3 days i've had attacks every morning between 4am and 6am, each taking about 5000 in resources

Join an alliance and ask about a sitter. It's a feature built into the game. U can allow 2 other players to use your account (for this very purpose). There are certain things they cant do like spend any gold you have, rename your village, change your alliance, (any profile stuff). Otherwise they can do anything.

I have 2 sitters from my alliance, i've asked them to basically do nothing, except farm the local villages, unless i get attacked. That way in the morning when i wake up i have a nice stash of resources to spend.
