Tribal Wars - World 2

[Lukie]

*** www.tribalwars.net ***

I didn't really want to start another thread for this, but there's absolutely no doubt that we are going to need it. PLEASE keep the two worlds seperate, and keep all world 1 communication in the other thread. If we don't, it will get very confusing very quickly.

Alright, that said, World 2 opens up tomorrow, Sat July 22nd at 8:00am EST, or 14:00 tribalwars server time. I'm going to be up around 10:00 or so to sign up, and I think it's a good idea to sign up at similar times, but feel free to do it before or after. I don't really know how the spacing is going to be, to be honest, but we will definately be much closer then we are in world 1, where many of us are very far apart.

As far as the tribe goes, if nobody has started it when I sign up, I will start it. I'm hoping we can get a very large group of FTRers into the game so we can work together, but regardless, we will be too weak if we don't recruit other active players. But at the same time I don't want to be some massive tribe with a bunch of weak players and poor organization. There has to be a good balance.

As far as basic strategy goes, I covered the basics in the other thread, but for now, keep this in mind: when you start off, concentrate on timber and clay production. Those are the most important things at the start. Once I see how the game dynamics shape up in the 2nd world I'll try to post some more detailed pointers, especially as we start progressing through the game. My village in the first world is up over 1,000 points, and I'm starting to make a serious run at teching towards a nobleman, so I've got a good idea about how the game works.

Anyway, see ya'll tomorrow.

[Lukie]

I have my phone alarm set for 8am sharp. Seriously.

[bode]

so youre doing it at 8?

[Lukie]

so youre doing it at 8?

That's the plan right now, before I go to bed I'm may push it back, though. I really have no idea.

[Lukie]

Maybe I'll let all the hardcores go at 8 and I'll do it at around 9 or so.

[Pelion]

if we all do it at the same time it would be best.

[ItDepends]

hahaha lukie, you are so lame to wake up specifically for this game. Didn't we talk about this on AIM?

Anyway, I'll still be up so I'll be in game right when it opens

[a500lbgorilla]

post link, i will begin the ultimate city and after our tribe creates a roman-esque empire, I will see us crumble in our filth and laziness.

[Irisheyes]

W2 is starting in 10 minutes. I think we should sign up in about 2 hours so we miss the big hardcore rush. y/n?

[Pelion]

well it would appear im the only person who has signed up...

comeon hurry up you guys

the rush doesnt matter. the world begins as a spiral at the center so we are closest if we all join at the start. Even if it goes around the spiral a few times between players you will still be close.

[Irisheyes]

k fuck it I'll join up now. Lets go wild.

[Pelion]

Ive established FTR. I am called Pelion in game. Message me for invites.

[a500lbgorilla]

message you here or in the game?

[ItDepends]

I got 5 tribe invites like instantly

[Irisheyes]

Invite please Pelion. -->> Irisheyes

And eh wtf you start with no timber camp or clay pit. BUILD THEM FIRST!!

[ItDepends]

Invite me, ---> DoGGz Village 520/535

[ItDepends]

Also I upgraded to premium, and I can add 3 buildings instead of 2. 4th building at 25% premium.

[Pelion]

Invite please Pelion. -->> Irisheyes

And eh wtf you start with no timber camp or clay pit. BUILD THEM FIRST!!

or iron mine

[Pelion]

message you here or in the game?

If you put it here you have to say your village name.

I prefer it if you message me in game so all i have to do is click invite

also i wont miss anyone that way

[a500lbgorilla]

absorb me into the tribe

a500lbgorilla

[Lukie]

I woke up at 8:30 on the brink of falling back asleep. I checked my phone (alarm was set for 8), and the alarm was turned off. I never remember it going off. There's also a 0% chance I'd wake up this early on my own.

Weird, but I'm up.

[mcatdog]

In, 489/531 (BillyBibbit).

[a500lbgorilla]

woo i got an invite to tribe KYA!

[a500lbgorilla]

how quickly can we amass the largest army know to World 2?

[Gareth]

I'm in - i didn't need to build any of the mines or timber yard!

Village - 36__Utopia__72
location - 525/517 k55

Do we still get 5 day protection?

[Lukie]

Jesus, I'm back to being a newb. And I when I started world 1, some of the resource buildings were already partially upgraded (I think?). I'm probably going to have to bump iron a few more times then I had anticipated.

[dsmrolla06]

im guessing they only started us with more upgrades in world 1 because we joined so late so the game wouldnt have such a slow start. Theres only about 900 people that have joined so far so we should have a decent advantage.

[Pelion]

Good news. We have an ally. A little while after I joined this game I noticed I had an invite from a tribe called {LoLA}

They seemed pretty huge and friendly so we have agreed to be allies

[a500lbgorilla]

so pelion, are you mass inviting people? I think you should make some more tribe admins or whatever so that we can try to recruit people near us.

[Lukie]

so pelion, are you mass inviting people? I think you should make some more tribe admins or whatever so that we can try to recruit people near us.

I think this is a good idea. Then later on we can boot those that we don't like or that aren't active, but we want to gobble up some good players before they have a chance to join another tribe.

[dsmrolla06]

did they put a limit to how many people you can have in a tribe?

[Lukie]

I'm in - i didn't need to build any of the mines or timber yard!

Village - 36__Utopia__72
location - 525/517 k55

Do we still get 5 day protection?

yeah i think we still get 5 day beginner protection (not 100% sure, but close), but since there arent any established players, it's not really as necessary.

[a500lbgorilla]

i think the limit is like one more than exists on the server

[Lukie]

wow there are a ton of people that are VERY close to me.

[Pelion]

Ok lets get inviting. How do we want to organise the tribe politically. I vote Lukie leads us since hes been playing the longest and hes active.

Everyone send a message to your neighbours and see if they want to join

[a500lbgorilla]

start being friendly

[Irisheyes]

Me, mcatdog and some guy called dsmrolla06 (who is in the FTR tribe) are on the same continent.

[Lukie]

start being friendly

f that, lets start shit with the biggest baddest tribe around.

[Pelion]

ok ive invited 3 of my strong looking neighbours. Im going to make it so you guys can invite people too

[a500lbgorilla]

dsmrolla has the big hotdog penis

also, i was sending messages to some guys around me saying to pm pelion to get in.

[Gareth]

true.....

next newbie question - how do you invite other villages to our tribe?

[Lukie]

Everyone,

I'm going to be the king of the tribe. Maybe as the 'leader' and maybe not. But definately the strongest.

[a500lbgorilla]

k, im going to be the one that focuses solely on constructing a large and mobile armed forces but my near-sightedness will soon be the end of me as my defenseless camp is over run by a nearby overlord as my army is off wandering the hills looking for lambs to slaughter.

[Irisheyes]

Would we like to ally with Paladins Vertueux? They messeged me asking me to join their tribe so I might be able to set it up. As far as I know they were a pretty big tribe in World 1.

[dsmrolla06]

ok, we may want to be selective on who gets into ftr because theres a limit or 80 people per tribe.

[Pelion]

I have made all FTR members Barons apart from Lukie who is a Duke since he will lead us.

You should now be able to invite your stronger neighbours by clicking on their tribe, and then clicking on their player name and clicking invite to tribe.

[Lukie]

you have to be a duke or a baron.

Somebody asked what the difference is, and to be honest, I'm not 100% sure. Duke is the higher level though, and can do a few things that a baron can't. A baron can still invite new people though.

[Gareth]

you can use the ranking chart to invite the players to our tribe

[Lukie]

ok, we may want to be selective on who gets into ftr because theres a limit or 80 people per tribe.

Where did you read this? Destiny has a lot more then this, although it's very possible they could have changed it for world 2.

[Lukie]

Awesome, ty.

You can help lead too.

[Lukie]

definate yes.

I remember reading something about how someone in their tribe backstabbed them and disbanded like half of it. I think it was on the tribalwars forums.

[Gareth]

lukie - should we be using the rank chart to invite people?

[Pelion]

ok has anyone else run out of resources...?


All ive done so far is upgraded my resources to

Clay/Timber/Iron
3/3/1

and im out

Gotta wait 2 hours to upgrade more

[Lukie]

lukie - should we be using the rank chart to invite people?

might not be a bad idea.

Also, here's something everyone should consider before inviting people. Everyone who has joined has already gotten a LOT of invites. If you just send another one, they'll probably ignore it. If you send them a kind mail beforehand (or with it), they'll be much more likely to join, IMO. Of course I don't follow my own advice, but it's good advice I think.

[Gareth]

i'm at Timber 4 - Clay 3 upgrading just now to 4 - iron 1 upgrading to 2

only have T = 41, C = 60, I = 73

probably have to wait another hour to do any more.....

Hi. Would you like to join the FTR tribe?

We are a group of players fairly new to this game but we are all active and want to play and do well.

We are looking for active players to join the fun.

im in the exact situation. i guess i can go back to bed for a while now

roffle

[mcatdog]

Clay/Timber/Iron
3/3/1

That's exactly what I did. I plan to upgrade my clay and timber a few more times before I even think about the iron, because iron seems relatively useless early in the game.

I probably wouldn't make any mention of being a group of fairly new players to the game, I think people who have signed up this early did so for a reason and want to be in a strong tribe.

[a500lbgorilla]

i was just testing out how to make allies and I think i made someone an ally... but i didnt need their ok.

whats up with that?

damn, i've just been sending invites......people will be getting bombarded with invites - maybe mention that we can help improve their poker playing ablities

[Lukie]

Are they {LoLA}? If not, then you probably didn't, because they are our only ally.

[a500lbgorilla]

i terminated the alliance and shot them a pm immediately.

[Lukie]

Hello,

My name is Lukie from Tribe FTR. We had a small band going together in world 1, where I'm still an active player, but we decided to all get together at the start of world 2. If you'd like to join, feel free to mail me back and I'll send you an invite. We are looking for strong, active, friendly players. Hope to hear from you soon!

- Lukie

[a500lbgorilla]

uh, lets be friends with the guardian angels

They're ranked number 1 and an ally of an ally, so we should be able to on their good side.

[Lukie]

Everyone,

If you see an active player in your area without a tribe, feel free to (and please do) try to get them to join. I'll let everyone take care of their own area, just make sure you don't piss people off.

Pissing people off this early in the game = ---------EV.

They said they'd get back to me asap.

[a500lbgorilla]

im at 2/3/2 wood/clay/iron and wont be able to upgrade for an hour due to no wood/clay/iron.

[Pelion]

i was just testing out how to make allies and I think i made someone an ally... but i didnt need their ok.

whats up with that?

Being allies doesnt actually change anything to do with how the game works. It just changes the colour they appear on our map.
The actual Alliance stuff like helping each other has to be done by individual players.

correct

Don't make the mistake of attacking an ally thinking the game won't let you, because it will. Hell, I've even killed a few of my own support troops in other villages, because the game just recognizes ATTACKER and DEFENDER, with no bearing on who each of those players are.

[bode]

so is there in fact a limit of 80 players per tribe?

and no more of this "we are freindly and we want you to join our happy time fun group"

tell them we are here for world domination and we plan on eventually dominating world 2 and if they woudl like to be a winner they can join.

I don't know.

I think I agree, but I settled on a message somewhere in between.

[Lukie]

yessssssss i finally signed someone else, nobody else has even responded to my stupid mails.
