We are recieving applications for our alliance. Do we accept people?

Gonads08:
dear sir/maam

just wondering if i could join ur alliance?

Jojo35:
Hello K-R,

I'm wondering if there's a possibility to join your clan. Ofcourse I realise I'm a small player, but I've got the necessary experience (s1.nl, s3.com). One K-R member is located near my village, and we could have a very productive relationship.

If it's a condition to have at least that much pop, I'll do my very best to achief the join-limit in a short as possible time.

With regards,
jojo35

NUNO:
I would like to join to your aliance could you send to me an invite waiting news

I say we accept new members, but that's just my humble opinion.

I also think we should accept new members, there are much stronger alliances and thus with only the few people from here we are rather weak.

yeah.. let them in.. maybe invite them over here so that we could get them hooked into civ, or Hattrick, or spam.

Could we get our own forum or will we be stuck in Other Other Games forever??

The right way to proceed indeed ! [goodjob] Let them come to the dark side. But in any way, the only remark that we'll stay a weak team otherwise fuels the absolute need of signing up other players. As long as the "brain" of the alliance lies at CDZ, I'm fine with it.

Could be a nice idea, since there is an alliance running now.

On a sidenote, of course I'll join the CDZ alliance. I'm just currently using all I can to set up my resources fields to the highest level possible, and even an Embassy would slow me down. As soon as I'm attacked once, I'll build it, since some say it discourages some people to attack. I want to be the granary of the CDZ alliance ; I heard the Gauls (me) are good at resources and trade, right ?

Rik Meleet

Yes - let others in, but tell them what CDZ means. And that they have to play a PBEM. I want to be able to beat someone in Civ .... :)

I think we should accept although a pop limit might be a good idea.

KR, could you put this web address as the forum link for the alliance? I just created an alliance on server 3 and noticed that option. Since most people check here instead of the Travian forum, it might be useful to have the forum link here so that we could just use this one.

Kingreno
20-10-2006, 18:49
Done!

Tubby Rower
20-10-2006, 19:42
it seems as though we have a couple of farms in our alliance [:o]

That's not realy farming, it's small harrasment. On server 6 I was farmed during 2 weeks or so...there was ALWAYS attacks comming, and more often then not more then one.

Tubby Rower
20-10-2006, 21:15
yeah I guess your right... I've hit 3 people 4 times each just today on server 3.:D

I have politely asked Alaska982 to stop the attacks but he continues to do so. He is now an A-target for attacks.

Rik Meleet
21-10-2006, 12:44
Agreed.
Has nuno been advised to go for crannies ?
He's lost a lot:
Wod Cl Ir Food
102 85 84 0
334 270 236 0
132 101 67 0
98 59 83 0
82 0 51 0

Kingreno
21-10-2006, 14:13
I have sent messages saying that he should build a cranny, and a large one at that. He thinks we can send a zillion troops for defending him, I told he should wait a few weeks for that to happen...

Ginger_Ale
21-10-2006, 15:43
The alliance can only have 9 members currently.
Per level of the embassy additional 3 players may join

I guess I have to build up my embassy...

Tubby Rower
21-10-2006, 16:08
no KR's embassy needs to be increased.

Dell19
21-10-2006, 20:30
I'm waiting for the embassy to be increased as well. :)

I don't have a market yet to be able to send resources.

Kingreno
21-10-2006, 21:29
I know the embassy needs to be increased...will build a market soon and will then do what I can...

Kingreno
22-10-2006, 22:29
Ok, some news.

- I upgraded teh embassy to lvl 5. I would appreciate some donations to get it up further as it is getting rather expensive now.[blush]

- We had more attacks on us. I think we should ignore now and punnish later. Build crannies!![aargh]

- We are too small. I invited a few independant players in my area and I advise you all to do the same. No bullshit just a single line that you want a NAP, and if he/she is interested, he/she can join our club. If you get no answer, you may have just found a good farmee as he/she is inactive (or ignoring you...:D).

- we are too small. MORE CDZ-ers need to start up on Travian. Server 2!

Dell19
22-10-2006, 22:41
I've found on server 3 that good farms are difficult to find. Tiny villages generally give a small income however the medium sized villages tend to all be full of crannies and the Gauls are full of traps which are a massive pain. One interesting thing that I've found is that you can get resources from raiding the abandoned valleys which is an added bonus to the experience that it gives the hero.

I'm happy to send resources eventually however at the moment I don't even have a market.

Ginger_Ale
22-10-2006, 23:41
So now, how do I join the alliance? It says to go to the forum...and I'm here. ;)

BTW, I think I'm closest to you, K-R, than the other CDZers.

Kingreno
23-10-2006, 10:00
Build an embassy. click on it. You will find my invitation there. :D

socralynnek

WoW just realised how close Gonads are....

(that sounded better in my head)

If they were on the position chart they would be about 3 away from me [:O][:O][:O]

can you please send an invitation to refterman (-22|162)

Kingreno
30-10-2006, 13:46
You should be able to do that yourself, go to the embassy and select options. If that is not working please tell me and I will check.

I sent an invitation to refterman this morning!

Thanks, didn't know I could do it. It works.

tofra

My current plan is to upgrade my resources field (can it go higher then 10??) and then building a palace level 10 so I can found a new city.. :-)

Tubby Rower
01-11-2006, 15:49
yes only in your capital can you extend your resource fields beyond 10.

Make sure to get your mili and defensive units as well. A second village without protection is easy prey for senators/warlords/chieftains and will be conquered within a week.

tofra
01-11-2006, 15:56
What size is a reasonable army size?

Kingreno
01-11-2006, 16:02
for defense against a village take-over?

get at least level 10 barracks and stable, to make sure you can quickly build extra units. Get a high level armoury, and upgrade armour of your def units to level 10 minimum.
Then, get yourself an army taht can handle a large force of Inf anf or cav, so totalling 300 units or so. At least...

It is not as easy to expand.[blush2]

tofra
01-11-2006, 16:22
Hmm... maybe it will be a very long term thinking idea.. :-)

Tubby Rower
01-11-2006, 16:34
what would you need to defend an oasis? I've noticed that after you kill all of the animals, you can get an easy 400 of the specialty for that tile by raiding it every morning.

But once you get to a level 10 hero mansion, you can annex those oases, but how much would you need to defend it?

Rik Meleet
01-11-2006, 17:08
PM-ed Batusajus (http://s2.travian.com/spieler.php?uid=24183) if he'd be interested in joining CDZ. He's sizeable, wants peace and is close to me and J-Mack. If he responds well: I'll invite him.

Socrates
27-11-2006, 17:48
I've now passed the 500-pop mark, and got a very cool graphics for the village on the map. :) Nice, nice. I'll think of founding a second village this week.

Since I'm far from most of you, I don't think I can be helpful on the military front, all the more as I still haven't built any troop yet in the entire game (what are they for anyway ? ;) ), but if someone desperately needs some resources, I have 10 merchants waiting. Tofra already knocked on the door last week.

Socrates
18-12-2006, 14:54
After Olympix Village and Phallix Village, here is Hotchix Village. :) And yet a 2nd village founded in a crop-rich valley (15/18 :D ). Apart from that, it's just building and building, not very exciting.

Kingreno
18-12-2006, 15:56
I am tired of attacks on our alliance. My defensive force is rising as we speak. Vengeance will soon be ours.

Ginger_Ale
18-12-2006, 22:26
I have started building settlers to found more villages (currently 1 settler, didn't realize you need 3 to found 1 village!).

My army is comprised of 40+ imperians, 12 praetorians, 30 equites imperitores, an equites legati, and a hero.

tofra
20-12-2006, 10:51
This is my army, so If i need to attack someone, or someone needs defense help, just let me know..
Troops:
1 Hero
4 Clubswingers
162 Spearfighters
277 Axefighters
5 Scouts
51 Paladins
13 Rams

Kingreno
20-12-2006, 11:00
I have:
550 phalanx (level 10arm)
80 Reutates (level 5 BlS)
20 Pathfinders
110 Druids (level 7arm)

Tubby Rower
20-12-2006, 13:35
I'm getting ready to settle a new village. I'm hoping to get a 9 or 15-cropper. I could always plant a city near one of you. If there is any locations that are close to you that are good, and you can't settle them in the next week or so, let me know and I'll settle there.

Socrates
20-12-2006, 13:55
Yesterday I was farmed for the first time ever ! Apparently that dude has no idea I also have 2 other villages, and besides his alliance only consists in 4 mediocre players. I'll go hedgehog for the moment, but if he continues I might wake up.

Catalin
20-12-2006, 17:28
I was looking for croppers. It seems these croppers are not so close to our cities, but here's 2 croppers anyway:

(-159|51) - Tubby Rower
(-158|19) - cropper near Tubby Rower
(-109|-138) - me
(-117|-128) - cropper near me

Tubby Rower
20-12-2006, 18:03
I was looking for a new city site with 15 croplands, 1 iron, 1 clay, and 1 wood. I think that there are 9 and 12 cropland plots as well. Normal ones only have 6.

Ginger_Ale
20-12-2006, 18:18
Oooh, I found one near me! Just like 5 tiles from my capital too. The best part about it is that it's 15 croplands, and nearby are a +50% crop oasis and a +25% crop oasis. :D That'll be my next city...

Tubby Rower

I had the same situation. After the attack he got a friendly letter from me, reminding him that Rome is my capital and it is not that far from him. He replied, that he won't come again :)

Tubby Rower
21-12-2006, 13:43
I finally found a 15-cropper and will settle it this morning. It has a 50% crop oasis, 25% crop oasis, and a 25% crop/25% iron oasis within range :D That should feed quite an army!!

Ginger_Ale
21-12-2006, 17:11
Wait, if I send 10 imperians from my capital to my newest city, are those treated as regular reinforcements to someone else (meaning that player can't use them to attack), or is it different?

I'm saying, can I move units between my own cities, and still use them to attack?

Tubby Rower
21-12-2006, 17:15
quote:are those treated as regular reinforcements to someone else (meaning that player can't use them to attack)correct. The only unit to my knowledge that can be transferred is the hero.

Tubby Rower
21-12-2006, 20:18
I settled the 15-cropper and some guy that started at the beginning of the server has 4 cities planted near there. He sent some catapults and destroyed it within 30 minutes of me founding it. :( I sent him a letter basically telling him that he had no life and was a dork. So I'll likely quit this game. I personally think that it's an ok game but it does allow someone that starts early to settle on the fringes and then wipe out any neighbors. I'll try it again once the server re-starts. If anyone wants my login info, I'll PM it to you. otherwise, I'll be in-active and likely die at the hands of mr. cool

Kingreno
21-12-2006, 21:24
Well, it sucks, but I would have done the same if I had cata's and someone settled near me on a 15 cropper. It is however IMHO no reason to quit the game. It was only 3 settlers, that's only 2 days production. Please considder your decision Tubby, we need active members in CDZ!

Tubby Rower
21-12-2006, 21:33
Well it's not only that... I'm near no one. I can't raid anyone. It just sucks. I'd rather be near someone I know or have someone locally that is a nemesis not a bully. He and I have exchanged a couple of IGM's and he seems ok. But the fact that he has 4 villages on the outskirts and his initial city is located very near the center. So I have no chance to do anything. :(

That's the other reason I was looking for a city near someone. I'm a bit lonely [lol]

Kingreno
21-12-2006, 21:37
You could delete and rejoin in the region nera me. I have enough resources to make a quick village in no time. I could even sit for you occasionaly and that would be even better considdering the time difference.

Tubby Rower
21-12-2006, 21:40
I might send some settlers near you. That way I can keep my current city and send resources as needed.

Kingreno
21-12-2006, 21:59
Sure. And do not bother on defence; just let me know how many where and when.
