nice game

[lipe44]

Its a nice online:

TribalWars (http://www.tribalwars.net/16707.html)

Join it and start playing, mail me ingame if needs help, my game account is the same name as here.

[Vaynor]

Which world are you on?

[Lucky]

Seems like an oddly peaceful game... I could enjoy this.

EDIT: Vay, if you're interested, I'm in World 5. Of course this assumes I don't get bored of this game 30 minutes in.

[Vix]

Well I signed up. Thanks for the suggestion. I share computer with my boyfriend so it's hard finding free games he hasn't already claimed. <Hope I don't get mauled>

[Lucky]

For those interested, I'm thinking of starting a tribe for us Giantitp people who get into this game. That way we won't all die! Yay!

Tribe: Giantitp
Abbreviation: OotS

Yet Another Edit: Ok, so apparently I need to invite you into a tribe. So if you're interested, post here with your name and I'll send you an invite.

[Vaynor]

name: Vaynor
World: 5
Town Name: Vaynortopia
Continent: 74

[purple gelatinous cube o' Doom]

sure, sign me up for the tribe. I'm purplegelatinouscube on world 5. I'm also on continent 42 if that means anything.

EDIT: coordinates are (222|400) K42

[Vaynor]

Also list your coordinates, that way you can actually be found. So, continent 74: 404,773.

[Bryn]

My username is Z-Axis, but in game I am Rogin of clan Errogar, a warrior from the north.
Coordinates: (792|560) Continent 57
World: 5
Town: Roginhold

[Calamity]

I am Calm Calamity and I am at (736|338) K37 (I think that means continent 37?) My town is called Calm Waters

[Timberwolf]

I'm playing as mist lynx (all my usual names were taken)

I'm on world 5, and my coordinates are 762/615 continent 67 i think

Lucky, I think I'm right next to you, just to the southwest

[Ronsian]

Good idea. I'm Neverwinter (276|308) K32, but can we really form a tribe if we're so far away?

[Calamity]

Yup, and then we can take over the world! Bwhahahahaha!

Woo! I'm the second member to join the tribe (including Lucky). We should build markets in case we need to trade stuff.

EDIT2: Hey cool, we get our own tribal forum.

Yet another edit: Yay! I made my first troop at last!

[Lucky]

I'm playing as mist lynx (all my usual names were taken)

Lucky, I think I'm right next to you, just to the southwestHey! You are! That is so cool!

[Captain van der Decken]

Interesting.

Malton (http://tw5.tribalwars.net/game.php?village=86051&screen=overview_villages) (495|207) K24

Yup, Urban Dead.

So how does this tribe thing work?

And there's an abandoned village next to me. What does this mean/how can I take advantage of it?

[Lucky]

I'm... not entirely sure. It just seems cool.

[Calamity]

Interesting.

Malton (http://tw5.tribalwars.net/game.php?village=86051&screen=overview_villages) (495|207) K24

Yup, Urban Dead.

So how does this tribe thing work?

Someone has to invite you into their tribe. then you are allied with everyone in that tribe. EDIT: Btw, that link directs me to my village, so it's kinda obsolete, because Lucky will get redircted to his village and timberwolf will get directed to her village blah blah blah.


And there's an abandoned village next to me. What does this mean/how can I take advantage of it? I think that you have to send troops in or something like that to take advantage of it. And it means you won't have to worry about that village attacking you.

The rules say you need a nobleman before you can take over another village though, dunno what that means though.

EDIT: Oh, btw, Decken. I invited you to join our tribe.

[Captain van der Decken]

EDIT: Btw, that link directs me to my village, so it's kinda obsolete, because Lucky will get redircted to his village and timberwolf will get directed to her village blah blah blah.


I just copy & pasted the line. Sue me. :tongue:


Weeell. Just gotta wait for my headquarters to upgrade, I guess.

*accepts invite*

Cool.

[Arang]

I'm at 203|459 (continent 42). My name is Durkonai and my town is called Abstania. I'd like to join.

[Calamity]

Wow Arang, your village is all by it's ickle self, lol.

My market is almost done, which is good! (All these buildings take too long to build!) And our tribe is in the top 2000! Woot!

[Lucky]

Wow Arang, your village is all by it's ickle self, lol.

My market is almost done, which is good! (All these buildings take too long to build!)Which honestly, is why I'm in love with this game.
You barely have to do anything! You just click something, then come back 40 minutes later and click something else. It requires very little attention and I can play it while doing a bunch of other things.

EDIT: Holy crap Smithies take forever to build.
EDIT2: Decken, you have an absolutely sexy location.

[Captain van der Decken]

Not long till I can build a barracks.

Getting really paranoid all my neighbours will attack me as soon as the protection time is over.

[Vaynor]

Who's inviting to the tribe? I still need to be invited.

Wait, are any of you JDOG<numbers> or Roadrunner?

EDIT: Never mind, I just realized the invite didn't go under the mail slot. :smallbiggrin:

Oh I have the most points in the tribe! I am teh awesome. :smallwink:

[Captain van der Decken]

You have been invited. Odd.

Nope, not us.


I'm fifth?

*shame*

[Calamity]

Who's inviting to the tribe? I still need to be invited.

Wait, are any of you JDOG<numbers> or Roadrunner?

EDIT: Never mind, I just realized the invite didn't go under the mail slot. :smallbiggrin:

You have been invited, it says so on the tribe records.Mar 11
17:38Vaynor (http://tw5.tribalwars.net/game.php?village=85778&screen=info_player&id=341300) has been invited by LuckyLeprechaun (http://tw5.tribalwars.net/game.php?village=85778&screen=info_player&id=341397).


Click on the tribe link at the top of your screen.

6 hours to train a paladin! Craaazy! They don't have huge costs though. And you can name him/her!

[Captain van der Decken]

Really? Then I'm naming my paladin Hinjo.



EDIT2: Decken, you have an absolutely sexy location.


Wait, what? I got something good?

[Lucky]

Oh I have the most points in the tribe! I am teh awesome. :smallwink:By 1 damnit! 1!!!

GAH!!!


Wait, what? I got something good?Yes. Your location is almost completely surrounded and you have an abandoned tribe next to you. How cool is that?

[Penguinizer]

Penguinizer

send me an invite

[Calamity]

Co-ordinates?
EDIT: Never mind I found you.
EDIT2: Lucky found you first :P

[Captain van der Decken]

Is being almost completely surrounded a good thing?

[Arang]

I'm in now. Woohoo!

So ... do I just keep upgrading my village headquarters until I can build more stuff? And is it natural for me to feel lonely, just sitting way out here?

[Lucky]

Is being almost completely surrounded a good thing?
I'd say so, it discourages people from attacking you.

[Timberwolf]

Really? Then I'm naming my paladin Hinjo.


You can name your paladin ? If this is so, I think I'll grab Miko while the going is clear.

Don't forget to upgrade your other stuff as well.

[Lucky]

You can name your paladin ? If this is so, I think I'll grab Miko while the going is clear.
I... named mine Lucky. :smalltongue:

So, how's everyone's defense at the moment? I have level 3 walls and 20 spearmen with 5 hours left to go for a paladin.

[Captain van der Decken]

Well, I'm building a barracks now.


You can name your paladin ? If this is so, I think I'll grab Miko while the going is clear.

Don't forget to upgrade your other stuff as well.

>.>

That is, when I get one. No-one copy me, please. :smallfrown:

[Bryn]

*Prepares to sound dumb*

How does one get soldiers anyway?

[Calamity]

I... named mine Lucky. :smalltongue:

So, how's everyone's defense at the moment? I have level 3 walls and 20 spearmen with 5 hours left to go for a paladin.

Level 1 walls almost done, 6 Spearmen and less than 3 hours for my paladin.

@Decken, you can name your paladin when it's in training.

@Z-Axis: You upgrade your village hq to level 3 and build a barracks, that's where you can train troops

*looks down* Mega-Simu Action!

[Captain van der Decken]

Build a barracks - upgrade your headquarters to level 3, then you can build one.

No idea from there.

[Lucky]

*Prepares to sound dumb*

How does one get soldiers anyway?Upgrade your Headquarters to lvl 3, then build a barracks. You recruit soldiers there.

EDIT: SIMUED!

[Arang]

Defenses? Does having 5 minutes left until I get a level 3 headquarters count? :smallbiggrin:

When do I get the barracks?

*sees reply*

Ah.

Well, I guess I'll have soldiers soon, then.

[Timberwolf]

Level 1 walls, 1 spearman but I've been upgrading my clay pit and timber production so I'll be a bit behind on units. You just build the statue to get the pally right ?

[Bryn]

I see. Thanks.

[Lucky]

Level 1 walls, 1 spearman but I've been upgrading my clay pit and timber production so I'll be a bit behind on units. You just build the statue to get the pally right ?Well, build a statue, pay 20/20/40 and then wait 6 FREAKIN' HOURS! :smalltongue:

[Arang]

Great, 25 minute wait for the barracks. I need soldiers, a statue and 6 hours for the paladin, right? Or do I get the first paladin for free, as in, I don't have to have a soldier to promote?

[Lucky]

Great, 25 minute wait for the barracks. I need soldiers, a statue and 6 hours for the paladin, right? Or do I get the first paladin for free, as in, I don't have to have a soldier to promote?I'm not sure exactly what you're asking, but you recruit a paladin just like any other soldier, just they're much cheaper, you have to wait forever, and you do it with the statue instead of the barracks.

Also: 8 minutes for my smithy! Woohoo!
EDIT:

[Captain van der Decken]

Edit: *looks back*

Ohh. Wondered who Durkonai was.



Kinda.. explains things.

[Calamity]

Hey Arang, what's your profile name? You want an invite?

He's already in our tribe, profile is Durkonai.

Also, I really need to start upgrading my timber yard

Edit: Also, kudos to lipe44, for pointing out this cool game, which is strangley addictive.

Edit2: Weeeeeeeeeeeeee! I have walls!

But now I don't have enoguh resources to upgrade anything useful. I am in desperate need of wood!

[Lucky]

I have a smithy! Woot!

And yeah... I haven't upgrade my timber yard, iron mine, or clay pit...

I should do that soon.




Edit: Also, kudos to lipe44, for pointing out this cool game, which is strangley addictive.Seconded.

[Timberwolf]

me too and every other resource. leave it overnight afteer i get started on teh paladin

[Arang]

I'm not sure exactly what you're asking, but you recruit a paladin just like any other soldier, just they're much cheaper, you have to wait forever, and you do it with the statue instead of the barracks.

Also: 8 minutes for my smithy! Woohoo!
EDIT: :tongue:

The statue said the villagers paid homage to the paladin there, and somewhere there was something about how if my paladin died, I had to promote another soldier. So the question was "Do I automatically get a paladin when I build a statue and wait for six hours, or do I have to train a soldier, build a statue, and then upgrade him to a paladin?". And you answered it.

Woot, only 9 minutes to go until I get my barracks! I'm such a superpower. :smalltongue:

[Captain van der Decken]

S'pose I'll just do the paladin, and some other stuff that takes ages over night.

[Vix]

Hey I'm Vylaria @ 377/242.
Questions:
How did you get a smithy?
Can you check where your troops are? I sent some to an abandoned village to plunder, hopefully, they have not yet returned:smalleek:

[Lucky]

Questions:
How did you get a smithy?
Can you check where your troops are? I sent some to an abandoned village to plunder, hopefully, they have not yet returned:smalleek:
1) You need a Headquarters lvl 5 and a barracks lvl 1.
2) I'd assume at the rally point, but all my troops have stayed home, so I can't confirm that.

[Bryn]

Excellent. Barracks is being built and will be finished in 20min...

[Calamity]

1) You need a Headquarters lvl 5 and a barracks lvl 1.
2) I'd assume at the rally point, but all my troops have stayed home, so I can't confirm that.

Aww, man, my HQ isn't even lvl 4 yet, I have a long wait ahead.
Edit: Hey Penguinizer isn't so far away from me!

[Vix]

actually they're back now but I can't tell if they brought back anything. Guess not

[Captain van der Decken]

So if I attack the abandoned village, will I get no repercussions? Will I get anything?

[Arang]

Only 3 hours to wait before my troops are trained!

On the down side, I'm out of resources. D'oh.

[Lucky]

So if I attack the abandoned village, will I get no repercussions? Will I get anything?It's right next to you, so you have nothing to lose attacking it. Might as well give it a shot.

[Vaynor]

I... named mine Lucky. :smalltongue:

So, how's everyone's defense at the moment? I have level 3 walls and 20 spearmen with 5 hours left to go for a paladin.

I have level 2 walls, working on a better barracks. I have only 8 spearmen as I'm focusing on my buildings first. I already have my paladin. :smallbiggrin:

On the other hand you pulled ahead of me points-wise...

EDIT: SMITHY TAKES FOREVER!

[Lucky]

I have level 2 walls, working on a better barracks. I have only 8 spearmen as I'm focusing on my buildings first. I already have my paladin. :smallbiggrin:

On the other hand you pulled ahead of me points-wise...Yeah... I'm not entirely sure what I just did...

Oh well.

Always fun to try a new game. Mostly because I enjoy studying games.

Hey neighbor:
I'm at world 5, (792|558)

[Lucky]

568 or 558?

[ishi]

568 or 558?

Uh...yeah, that too. These "numbers" are a mystery to me :smalleek: . Fixed.

Why are there no other playgrounders in our vicinity?

[Lucky]

Uh...yeah, that too. These "numbers" are a mystery to me :smalleek: . Fixed.

Why are there no other playgrounders in our vicinity?You're randomly placed all over the map.

I was fortunate in that I got Timberwolf right next to me, but the rest of you are a LONG walk. :smalltongue:

[Saithis Bladewing]

Boo. I want to be close to someone. :'(

[Captain van der Decken]

I'm all alone.

According to the simulator, 2 spearmen ( all I felt like sending) against nobody would give 2 losses.

:confused:

[Calamity]

You're randomly placed all over the map.

Heh, Lucky was lucky.

On another note, why do these walls take so damn long to upgarde?

[Lucky]

I'm all alone.

According to the simulator, 2 spearmen ( all I felt like sending) against nobody would give 2 losses.

:confused::amused: Very strange...
I suppose I wouldn't bother...

My location:

I'm in red, Timberwolf is in blue.That's how close we are.

[Captain van der Decken]

Sonofa!

I actually did lose two spearmen, to no gain.

[Vaynor]

Sonofa!

I actually did lose two spearmen, to no gain.

Wait, seriously!?! I just sent all my troops to an abandoned village! DAMMIT.

[Captain van der Decken]

Wait, seriously!?! I just sent all my troops to an abandoned village! DAMMIT.

Well, apparently if I send 9 I only lose 1.. so.. how many d'ya send?
Maybe it's some tiny army quirk.

Well, I'll have walls and a market in an hour..

[Penguinizer]

I have no barracks or walls. Penguitopia is helpless XD

[Vaynor]

Well, apparently if I send 9 I only lose 1.. so.. how many d'ya send?
Maybe it's some tiny army quirk.

Well, I'll have walls and a market in an hour..

I sent 8. According to the simulator I lose 1, but that still sucks.

Heh, Ishi and Z-Axis are right next to eachother...

[Lucky]

I have no barracks or walls. Penguitopia is helpless XD*invades Penguitopia*
Err... Whoops. Tribemate... right...

[Penguinizer]

Farm upgrades, then maybe a barracks. After that, some walls.

And Im actually pretty close to saithis.

[Calamity]

I sent 8. According to the simulator I lose 1, but that still sucks.

Heh, Ishi and Z-Axis are right next to eachother...

The simulator says if I send 12 and a paladin, i won't get any casaualities.

Saithis and Peguinizer are on the same continent as me! Wee!

[Arang]

I have 4 spear fighters and 37 minutes to go until my level 1 wall goes up. After that I'm going statue, timber camp upgrade, smithy.

And I need a market so I can have some sort of connection to the rest of you.

[Captain van der Decken]

Once I get a market, I'll be doing nothing for a while, until I can upgrade my lumber camp.

What are the rewards for plundering villages?

[Lucky]

Once I get a market, I'll be doing nothing for a while, until I can upgrade my lumber camp.

What are the rewards for plundering villages?You get all the resources they couldn't put in their hiding place.

[Captain van der Decken]

Sounds cool.

But.. does an abandoned village have any resources?

*wonders*

Doubt it.

[Lucky]

Sounds cool.

But.. does an abandoned village have any resources?

*wonders*

Doubt it.Good question...

You might want to just wait until you get a noble.

[Vix]

So that abandoned village I attacked with 7 guys actually got me: 54 50 46 resources but I lost 1 spearguy. Not Bad

Edit: And 6.3% luck and 100% morale :D

[Captain van der Decken]

Should probably get my defense up alot before I even think about a noble.

Well, that's what the guide says..

Great! I'll take a crack at it then.

[Bryn]

How do you take casualties from an abandoned village?:smalleek:

[Timberwolf]

*begins 6hr countdown*

[Lucky]

How do you take casualties from an abandoned village?:smalleek:A very good question...

[Captain van der Decken]

How do you take casualties from an abandoned village?:smalleek:


Well, it's overgrown, yes? Someone might.. trip over a plant. Or get savaged by a wild animal.

..

Yeaaah. I don't know. Ask an insurance company.

[Vix]

Found your Invite yay
had to decline invite from Camelot Warriors though?!?
Hope I don't make us enemies:smallwink: err I guess that's the point?

[Timberwolf]

Oh well, if they bring it on, I'll sic my spearman on them. He's vicious he is.

[Lucky]

Found your Invite yay
had to decline invite from Camelot Warriors though?!?
Hope I don't make us enemies:smallwink: err I guess that's the point?Eventually we might be forced to have enemies, but I feel secure with Timber backing me up.

Now as for the rest of you... :smallbiggrin:

[Penguinizer]

Im not that for from saithis...

And there arent that many people around that could attack me.

[Captain van der Decken]

I'm nearb some fairly new people too, so I should probably be ok.

Don't we have a 4 day grace?

[Calamity]

Peguinizer: You're not too far from me either
1 hour for my pally, woo!

[Lucky]

I'm nearb some fairly new people too, so I should probably be ok.

Don't we have a 4 day grace?5 days I thought. Or it was 5 for world 1. Might be 4 for us.

[Saithis Bladewing]

We may not be far apart, but I have no idea what I'm doing, so... ;)

[Vix]

Um.. Oots got turned into Tots

Edit: Ah... Tribe of the Stick ...nice

[Lucky]

Yes, I figured it was appropriate.

Also, apparently abandoned villages continuously generate resources, so you do get benefit from plundering them.

Good thing too, since my raiding party just left. :smallwink:

[Captain van der Decken]

Now all I gotta do is build enough spearmen that I won't lose any when I do it, then.


Looking at my wood stores, fat chance.

[Lucky]

Now all I gotta do is build enough spearmen that I won't lose any when I do it, then.


Looking at my wood stores, fat chance.
Nah. Hold off on that, I've found that 2 swordsmen means you won't lose any spearmen.
1 paladin means you won't either.

[Captain van der Decken]

Ah, seeing as (sometime late tonight) I'll have a paladin, should be useful to get resources.

[Saithis Bladewing]

Well, I've got supplies enough to finish my walls, marketplace and my first sixteen spearmen, but no more wood after that. Huzzah.

[Calamity]

Duuuuuuude! My paladin's ready!

[Bryn]

4:40 hours to go 'til mine is, although I have lots of spearmen...:smallwink:

[Captain van der Decken]

:frown: I have (almost) no wood.

[Timberwolf]

Lucky, where is this abandoned village you're raiding ?

[Calamity]

I'm also raiding an abandoned village right now, it better have good stuff though because it's not the nearest one to me!

[Lucky]

Lucky, where is this abandoned village you're raiding ?758|615
Bit of a walk, but not too bad.

[Timberwolf]

A ha, I'll pay it a visit tomorrow when I have my Pally and a few more people to say hello with.

[Ronsian]

Can I get an invite? Usernames Ronsian, village Neverwinter

[Captain van der Decken]

Okay, sent.

[Lucky]

Can I get an invite? Usernames Ronsian, village NeverwinterAck! Crap! I sent an invite to neverwinter, who is someone completely different. :smalltongue:

[Captain van der Decken]

Quick! Delete it, before the guy notices! :tongue:

[Lucky]

Quick! Delete it, before the guy notices! :tongue:He's in a tribe already, no damage done. :smallwink:

[Calamity]

Finally qualified to build a Smithy, but don't have the resources >:(

[Fualkner Asiniti]

I'm Fualkner Asiniti, my town is Verheldirix, continent 42 I think, (208/444)

Is that all the info you need?

[Lucky]

Yup .

[Captain van der Decken]

Is it only diplomats who can invite?

If it is,

Stop doing my job!

:smalltongue:

[Lucky]

Hehehe... :smallbiggrin:

May I remind you you're speaking to your king?

[Ronsian]

I have a question, it says I only have one merchant. So, I can't buy and trade stuff at market. How do I get more? Plus, our tribe needs to trade more.

[Fualkner Asiniti]

So, do I get an invite?

[Lucky]

I have a question, it says I only have one merchant. So, I can't buy and trade stuff at market. How do I get more? Plus, our tribe needs to trade more.
Upgrade your market at headquarters. We're working on the trading part, we really all lack merchants so far.

So, do I get an invite?Yes. You should have gotten it already.

[Fualkner Asiniti]

Are you sure you got the name right? I don't have one. I checked my mail folder, so if it's somewhere else, then tell me where.

[Lucky]

Are you sure you got the name right? I don't have one. I checked my mail folder, so if it's somewhere else, then tell me where.
Try under "tribe."

[purple gelatinous cube o' Doom]

I'll go to work on upgrading my market.

This looks like a fun game, and I'd like to join the TotS. I registered under the name Steve-Dave.

Sweet! This game is really popular!

[Mattaeu]

I just started: Mrkgnao 755|342 K37.

[Lucky]

Invite sent.

[Calamity]

Wow, i had 1000 wood this morning, upgrading my timber camp now, eek, high cost.

[headwarpage]

Man, there's nobody from the tribe anywhere near me. That can't be a good thing.

[Flying Elephant]

Flying Elephants village (255|661)

Can I join?

[Saithis Bladewing]

I'd send you an invite, but I can't. Booo.

[Captain van der Decken]

Invite sent.

[Penguinizer]

I got a paladin and level 3 walls coming. currently have 23 spearmen. I probably will upgrade my resource structures tomorrow.

[Arang]

I just sent off my first ever raiding party.:smallbiggrin:

Granted, it's 10 spearmen and a palading against nothing at all, but it's the thought that counts.

What do I need to build the Smithy?

[Lucky]

Headquarters lvl 5 and Barracks lvl 1.

http://tw5.tribalwars.net/help.php?mode=buildings

[Calamity]

Cool, I have swordsmen now.

[Captain van der Decken]

I'm practically depending on raiding parties. Need more spearmen.

[Timberwolf]

How do we attack stuff ?

[Captain van der Decken]

Find were-ever you want to attack, click on it, and you should get the option "send troops".

Or, go to your rally point and type the co-ordinates in manually.

[Timberwolf]

Do we type the number of each troop we want to send in as well ?

[Captain van der Decken]

Yeah. You can click on the (number) by the side to send all of them.

You should try it with the simulator- in the rally point- first, though.

[Timberwolf]

cool, soon as I get slightly more than 3 spearmen and my pally, I fell some raidin' coming on

Arrrrr !!

[Arang]

Is 48 spearmen too much for someone without level 3 walls, a smithy or a village headquarters beyond level 3?

[Timberwolf]

Well, unless you're planning on going raiding, you might want to bump those things up a bit.

1st raiding party launched on that abandoned village near me and lucky, 3 spears, a sword and a pally, go me !! I have such a fear inspiring army !!

[Lucky]

My little army is on it's way home from there right now, with 400 worth of resources, and another small army following right up behind.

[Timberwolf]

Yeah, I need that kind of resources right now. My mining is not as good as I'd like.

In unrelated news, my HQ is starting to actually look like a castle. It's still a thatched thing but it actually has a tower now

[Captain van der Decken]

I need clay. Seriously, I'm spending a lot of resources buying troops to raid for more resources.

[Lucky]

Timber, what level is your HQ?

[Timberwolf]

5 I think *checks*, yep, 5

[Morrandir]

Just joined, would like an invite.

Invite Sent

[Morrandir]

Wow, that was fast. Thankee :smallbiggrin:

Now to figure out how to do things...

Like raiding.

[Lucky]

Oh heck yeah, our tribe's top 1000!

[Timberwolf]

Lol, now I hope all those people who are taking this game far too seriously (see the forums) don't notice us until we can all get a few more units up

[Morrandir]

If it helps at all, I'll probably just pump out combat units, as Diplomacy isn'y my strong point, and trade with people I don't like makes me irky.

Besides, it's fun screaming LOLSTAB as you charge a zillion spearmen into their village :belkar:

[Captain van der Decken]

I don't like the sound of this..

[Lucky]

Lol, now I hope all those people who are taking this game far too seriously (see the forums) don't notice us until we can all get a few more units upI sent a PM over to toedeledokie, the guy who's just above us, asking if he wants to join the tribe. It would help us out a lot if he agrees, though I haven't heard back from him.

[Captain van der Decken]

Maybe find a few tribes and ask for an NAP?

[Timberwolf]

meh, it would really help us. Maybe that Stoneroses fella to the south east as well. Also, on the World 5 forums there's a recruitment forum as well. Maybe PM (don't post openly) a few people there as well.

[Lucky]

Maybe find a few tribes and ask for an NAP?That's a good idea, we should start looking very soon.

Diplomats? Go get you diplomacy on. :smallwink:

[Calamity]

I'll see if i can get houa to join.

[Captain van der Decken]

So ya think I should just write to my neighbours and ask if they want an invite? Or just invite them?

[Calamity]

Ask, it's politer, andbeing polite to people doesn't get them ticked off, therefore they're less likely to attack us later on.

[Lucky]

So ya think I should just write to my neighbours and ask if they want an invite? Or just invite them?I sent a PM first asking if they would like an invite, and giving a bit of speech explaining why we want him as a member, and the benefits to both sides. Then if he sends back asking for an invite, I'll send him one.

[Captain van der Decken]

Gotcha

http://w5.twplus.org/index.php?tool=file&aid=9661

That's the external link, right?

[Lucky]

I'd send them here instead:

http://tw5.tribalwars.net/guest.php?screen=info_ally&id=9661

[Captain van der Decken]

Okay.


I'm actually getting paranoid of screwing up. Which is.. embarrassing. Well, it's the first time I've done this.


Hey there. You aren't currently in a tribe, so I was wondering if you'd want to join mine (http://www.tribalwars.net/redir.php?url=http%3A%2F%2Ftw5.tribalwars.net%2Fgu est.php%3Fscreen%3Dinfo_ally%26id%3D9661). All we really want is someone friendly and willing to work together with the tribe, bringing added security and trading opportunities.
This look okay? Thinking we could just have a generic recruitment message.

[Lucky]

I'd add in that there isn't any pressure to join, and that it's not a threat in any means saying we'll attack them if they don't join. Otherwise, looks fine.

[Captain van der Decken]

Uhh.. ta da?

If you are interested, just mail me back and I'll send you over an invite. If you want more information, you can just check out our tribe profile.

Cheers,
Decken


(added more, since I'm gonna be going back to this post and thought it'd helpful. Yeah, I ripped off Lucky. But it's good stuff.)

[Lucky]

Works for me.

[Timberwolf]

"You there, zer little fellow, I'm in zer old Chateau, no pressure"

Blackadder anyone ?

Anyway, looks good to me.

[Lucky]

For the record, here's what I sent:


Hey toedeledokie,

I represent the Tribe of the Stick. We are made up of members from www.giantitp.com, but of course that leads to problems with the distance between tribes, seeing as we are scattered all over World 5. I was fortunate to be stuck next to Mist, but I think it best that I look to expand further in my area.
Which is why I extend an offer for you to join our tribe. Do not look at this like we're forcing you to or we attack you, just a friendly offer as there is a good potential for us working together well.
If you are interested, just mail me back and I'll send you over an invite. If you want more information, you can just check out our tribe profile.

Cheers,
Lucky

[Vaynor]

Woot I almost got axes! Oh and I'll try to recruit some members from my surrounding area.

[Morrandir]

Ah, the incredibly long build times...

At least I've got a barracks now. Wall coming soonish, market's first on the list.

Must upgrade headquarters for more fastness...

I am also, in fact, in the middle of nowhere. If I move up one map unit thingy, then up and to the right one more, I can see Lucky and Mist. Woo.

[Timberwolf]

cool, in that case we'll be fairly close to help each other out if need be.

[Ronsian]

Rats, you all are sooooo close. I'm off in the middle of nowhere. Gonna get myself some personal allies, everyone else is in a tribe. My army is going well, a good amount of spearmen and it's only me second day.

[Morrandir]

If you need anything, my market's up, and I've been cranking out a decent number of spearmen.

[MeklorIlavator]

Hi I'm MeklorIlavator, coordinates (353|243) K23
I previously joined a tribe accidentally, and would like to join the Giantitp one.
Right now there isn't a blue one on my screen! I am on world 5 too.

[Timberwolf]

You'll need to leave that tribe before you can join the TotS. Which tribe is it that you've joined ?

[MeklorIlavator]

I'm ready to(nobodies within a continent of me), and I joined the camelot warriors, because the initial message was to the effect of "join or I attack you", but it turns out that the organizer is almost about 3 continents away.:smallannoyed:

There, I have left the tribe.

[Vix]

FINALLY! I'm in K23 too yay
The Camelot Warriors sent me an invite too but I didn't reply. There weren't any threats though. *So relieved*

Edit: Actually you're still pretty far, but still the closest yet. (I'm 377/242)

[Ronsian]

I might be a bit close to you, if you go down you get my continent. Vaiynor I think is continent 23. "Join or I attack you" doesn't work, for precisely that reason. And it's really hard for them to attack you, as you have 4 days and could get a good tribe to help.

[MeklorIlavator]

Yeah, I wasn't to sure about the rules, plus it looks like it was mainly newer player like me who she/he invited.

[Timberwolf]

Ok, well hopefully van der decken, Lucky or someone else who can invite will see this soon and get you onboard.

[Calamity]

I went from needing wood to needing clay to needing iron.

[Penguinizer]

Meh, 45 spearmen and a pally for my army. level 3 walls. no smithy. I will upgrade the warehouse and hiding place, then resource buildings. Then the village hq and barrack.

[headwarpage]

I've been focusing on resource upgrades, so far. I have a barracks, but I haven't actually built any units yet. I'm hoping that once I get my resources up, I'll be able to crank out units/improvements at a rapid rate.

Also, how close do you realistically need to be to trade with somebody? Vaynor's a few screens over from me, and Maxymiuk is on the next continent, but that's about it. There isn't really anybody in my immediate area to recruit, either. A lot of new villages that don't seem to be doing much of anything, and one guy who's already in a tribe. On the plus side, there isn't anybody to threaten me, either.

[Zophiel]

I decided to give this game a shot, as well. I just got started though, so I don't have a whole lot to contribute just yet, but can I get an invite to the TotS?

Name: Faubourg
Village: Vaux Hall
Location: (746|329) K37

Also, are people paying for the 'premium' game service?

[Mattaeu]

Well I'm not; last thing I paid for I could eat(and that's what I call value :smalltongue:)

WOOHOO! You are near Calamity and I! Closer to Calamity, but hey, I'll take what I can get. And expect a 'welcome' gift soon.

[Captain van der Decken]

Invite sent. No premium here. No nearby allies, either..

[Arang]

I have almost 60 spearmen, but I needed to upgrade my warehouse before I could expand my army, or even get a smithy. I can see Fualkner Astini, two clicks up and one right from me.

In anyone needs iron, I'd be happy to send along about 400. Return gifts (especially wood) are appreciated, but not required.

I don't have the premium account. Doesn't seem like it adds a lot of advantages in any case.

[Lucky]

I've been considering going premium, but as far as I can tell it really doesn't give you access to new things, like Runescape or other games, it just simplifies things and offers small conveniences. Though it's not nearly as expensive.

[MeklorIlavator]

I can't log-on to world 5 anymore, it isn't an option. Anyone else having similar problems?

[Lucky]

It says at the bottom of the page it's down for a bit. Which means we get to hold our discussions here! Yay!

[Captain van der Decken]

Yeah. Glad they're sorting out (hopefully) that lag.

I mean, a 36 minute raid took triple that time.

[Arang]

It's up again.

EDIT: If anyone can spare 16 wood for me, it would be tremendous. I could get started on level 5 barracks, so it gets done overnight.

[Lucky]

Already? Wow.

[Captain van der Decken]

Hooray! That was quick.

Just traded 500 wood for 500 iron with some random guy. And man, I need it.

[Arang]

Eh, scratch that. Went for level 5 headquarters instead, since the barracks turned out to cost 400 wood, and not 227. Why couldn't they just display the price of the next upgrade?

[Lucky]

I got my level 5 barracks, and it changes quite significantly.
http://img70.imageshack.us/img70/9008/lvl5barracksrm5.png

[Captain van der Decken]

Oooo. Neat.

All I've seen much change in is the walls. Still palisades, but look cool.

[Timberwolf]

Yep, I like my little stone tower on my HQ though. definate improvement.

[Ronsian]

Cool. Anybody got a smithy? Does it do anything? Also, when you hit past HQ level 9 are there any better buildings? I got a good amount of cash, and am wondering what to get. Also, how do you get swordsmen? Higher barracks?

[Lucky]

I gots me a level 3 smithy, aiming for level 5. It opens up options for other buildings at certain, as well as better units. At level 5, with level 5 barracks and level 10 HQ, you get archers, which are probably the best defensive units after the paladin.

[Calamity]

You get swordsmen by building a Smithy

[Vaynor]

Axemen are available too, and you get swordsman. I just got axemen, tons of offense.

[Vix]

I'm going for Barracks 5, Smithy 5, HQ 10, so I can get Stable/scouts. Scouts let you spy out enemy walls/buildings/armies so you can calculate what you need to overcome them. I can make axemen now though I haven't made any yet. Drained a lot of resources just researching them.

[Mael]

I still havn't trained anything other than spears and the paladin yet. I think I should stop expanding my resources and focus on defense now though, getting close to the end of the safe period.

Sooooo thats a long time for "Timber Camp".....omg
what dose it take to get some units? like what research's/levels??

[Morrandir]

You need to upgrade your headquarters (this will also reduce build times somewhat) until you can build a barracks.

For the moment, I highly recommend beefing your economy while you have new player protection.

[Vaynor]

They're expensive to get, but I have 8 now. :smallsmile:

[Penguinizer]

Meh, I screwed up. Now I need to upgrade my farm a couple of time.

[Healos]

OK, for any one that new or needs help, here what you should do (http://forum.tribalwars.net/showthread.php?t=9711). You can also get more help at the "Help" tap in the menu bar. Search the forum for help too, and for the oldest player in the clan look out for the abandoned villages some still have hundreds of troops in em. Dam I just realized I'm like a hundred miles from any other clan members, so much for speedy reinforcements(thats if I need them though)

WEEEE!

For the record, I completely skipped axes, because well, they seem pointless.

[Arang]

I'm so gonna raid you ... *grumble grumble*

or I would, if I weren't so afraid of your super-powerful village headquarters! :smalltongue:
