Travian – How to Shake Off Someone Who is Farming You – (Part III)

by admin on Nov.16, 2009, under articles

So far we have looked at the way a farmer thinks and how you can use defensive strategies to stand up to him/her. Another way you can defend yourself is by becoming a protege or vassal to another player.

What you need to do is send a message to a much larger player asking them if they would be willing to help you out. Again, let’s take a look at how larger and bigger players think on Travian servers.

After building your first 10 villages, the game gets a little repetitive. A need emerges to try new strategies. This need can be fulfilled by any number of ways. One of those ways is by protecting smaller players or alliances. Don’t make the mistake of thinking that a bigger player will just welcome you with open arms.

Be prepared to offer something in return for help. If you both have a common enemy you could suggest that he reinforce your village in order to lay a trap for your enemy. This is exceptionally amusing for powerful defensive players who spend 90% of a game simming 10 hours away from everyone else.

You can also capture a bigger players attention by offering them 1 hour’s worth of resources per day or sending them a lump sum of crop to feed their troops. Getting help from a defensive player is your best bet since they can help you out while your attacker has no idea who they are. Bigger players also need homes for their troops to be fed. You can always offer to host a large battalion of defensive troops.

Regardless of the strategy you use for approaching bigger players, just remember that they are probably a master of time management and would like to help others without spending all day doing it. Make things as easy for them as you can.

3 Building Tricks That 90% of Travian Players Never Think Of

by admin on Nov.16, 2009, under articles

Here are three tricks that most players overlook. By following them however you will become much more powerful than your entourage.

The first has to do with your main building. Most beginning players never bring it past level 5 or 6, since that is the required minimum for building a residence. But don’t forget that a main building reduces the most indispensable resource in Travian, time.

A player can have all the resources they need at their disposal. But if it takes hours to complete a field that could be done in half the time with a level 20 main building, then the player is not making good use of time.

Culture points are collected from both parties that are hosted in the town hall, and buildings giving a small amount every day. The embassy for example generates 153 culture points each day when it is at level 20. A level 20 main main building gives another 77. The main building has other uses other than culture points, but the high contribution toward expansion a main building has should be a good enough reason to bring it to 20 along with the storage and granary of a newly found village in its early stages.

The armory, blacksmith and academy contribute to culture points too. However once these buildings are brought to 20 and have all the researches done in them, they outlast their usefulness. While an academy contributes to culture points, the blacksmith and armoury should be destroyed as they inflate the population of a village making it an attractive chiefing target.

These three types of buildings are often forgotten by experienced players who scratch their heads wondering why they lost their 15 village empire within 1 week.
