Best advice I've seen is to build your resources exclusively for a start. Do each to level 1 and then to level 2. I built a cranny, but apparently you can't be targeted for the first few days.
I've been going crop, clay, wood, iron in a circle and that seems to have kept the waiting down a little.

We're not all Romans - Mads is Teuton. How could I not be a Teuton? Both my parents are from the area the Teutons originally migrated from c. 120 B.C. Time to get revenge for Aquae Sextiae! Anyways, I will yell out when I get around to build an embassy, so you can invite me. If you dare

Well, I hesitated... After all, I am a Teuton... But the Romans looked more balanced. And Arminius spent a lot of time as an officer in the Roman army, preparing for the battle at Saltus Teutoburgiensis.
So, a Roman I am. Romanes Eunt Domus!

I now have an embassy at my village Emona. Accepting invites. I´ve already sent it go look at your embassy! Yes this is the best advice. Always keep your crop farms higher than the rest. Why? Well each building and troop will consume a number of crop per hour. So when you build something you´ll start getting less crop per hour. More info on crop: forum.travian.com/viewtopic.php?t=863Another good feature in the game is that you can go plundering earlier on than in IK. All you need is troops. (Recomended 4 Legionnaire for romans, or at least the same amount of troops as the number of population of the village your going to plunder.)

Just in the process of changing hosts; the new host offers phpBB, so I'll set up a Travian Forum soon. Should be live within the next couple of days. I'll keep you posted!

Hey folks. Now I dont get as wound up about this as most, but it might be worth checking out DarkLady's alliance and the members therein. It looks startlingly familiar. I hope we all have walls.................... Two days ago there was no alliance for her.

I wouldn't worry. We have more than one friend there, so I think they will leave us alone. She can't corrupt these guys.

And I think it's harder to just give away stuff. Even if Vampire is her new friend, he's also a newbie, sort of. So I don't think there'll be as much aid available for puella negra.
And it seems they can't count, as they state you'd need x amount of settlers to join, and only the top two players exceed that threshold...
