Have any of you been asked to join a "New Power Alliance"? I got this message a little while ago, the guy who sent it's ranked 2nd overall.

We are forming up a new power alliance. You look like you would fit in very well. I will send you an invite and I hope to see you accept :)

Sent him my reply saying I couldn't do it, I just don't take the game seriously enough to involve myself in this sort of stuff.

There are a few attacks on our board, must admit it's the first time I've checked in a while :-[ Doesn't look like too much major stuff, but it's not overly encouraging, oh well, I'll just keep buildin up the troops.

I'm just ploddin along quietly though myself. Got my second village up to 4s and 5s resource wise which isn't too bad, lookin to build on that pretty quickly though.
 
Yeah, I.m at the same level as you. Second village all 4-5 . I built next to original village, so it only takes 3 min for resourses to arrive. At this rate I assumed I'd have village no. 3 up in no time. Then looked into it and found out about culture points - guess I'll have to start throwing parties

Yeah culture points are a pain in the arse.Wasting 40000 resources /day just on throwing parties.
 
yep-3 days away.15 cropper are drying up fast.Want to get at least 1 before they all gone.

Then consolidate.
 
I've read 15 croppers are only really useful for gold users due to having to spread the resources around. I'm thinking of getting a 9 for my capital.
 
Yeah there prettty awkward.I think it may be handy to have at least 1 though to house and feed all the troops .

I've been talking to that apprenticiship guy a fair bit,he's the big dude in War3

He already has 2 of them and a 9 cropper
 
Yeah, see the point but without lots of gold to trade the resources around how are you supposed to build your army when all you have is crop essentially?
 
you constantly feed it iron clay and wood from your other villages with the merchants.Thats only real point of the standard issue villages to feed the hungry beasts that are the 9 and 15 croppers.

Apparently the ideal ratio is something like 6-8 standard villages/15 cropper.
 
So unless you use gold you can't build an army until you have around 10 villages? Sounds like you'd just be a massive farm to me.
 
Not necessarily.Each individual village has troops still.But the monster army is kept on these 15 and 9 croppers

The normal villages are your defense--the mosnters are your offense
 
How long does it take to get 8 villages though? Do you just hope that no one figures out that you're pumping out heaps of resources with no defense until you get to the point where you can effectively supply your 15 croppers?
 
It's exponential isn't it.It takes the same amount of time to go from 2 to 4 villages as it does to go from 4 to 8
 
Not if you don't have gold to convert all the crop you're producing into other resources to throw parties and build the more expensive upgrades which produce lots of culture points. All you've got is lots of crop an no army to feed.
 
You've got an army to feed.You make the army at the 15 cropper.The culture points and other stuff is done at all your other villages.

Imagine a time in about 6 weeks from now when you have say 5000 of those eq. cesaris all eating 4 crops/hour.It's going to require alot of croppage.
