with my expiriance of the game, travian does take a lot of time, but when you really get into the swing of things, it can really get fun.
at the moment, on uk3, i am getting destroyed by an unruly alliance, whose leader cannot stop them from attacking me!!!
my alliance is growing slowly, but i have decreased anbout 200 population!
a word of advice, do not get on the wrong side of one of the biggest alliances on the game! it can be painful!

[...] As I previously mentioned, I’ve been playing web-based strategy MMO/wargame/thing Travian. What’s surprised me was I played it so long. It even astounded Comrade Rossignol, who couldn’t quite believe that his perpetual gaming-mayfly housemate was still having a quick prod at that web browser game when he wandered into the room. In fact, since I was playing on the x3 speed server, my condensced experience would have equaled six months in the standard, even more sedate game. [...]

I don’t think they got bored as such. More their employment requires them to play other things now and again.

…err, that is correct, r…right?

TF2 is great, how did you get bored so quickly? My TF2 server is also getting colocation service from Nationwide Bandwidth 67.90.47.47 so we get tons of people playing.

I’ve been playing this for about a week. It’s basically BORING. You should be playing Duels instead, and using my referral as a sign up!

Oh no… you are about to say good bye to your life for a good while. I’ve been playing on the s1 US server since March now and it has been super fun. But it has definitely taken a lot of time from my life, some waking up in the middle of the night to send off scheduled attacks, and quick checks in between classes. Only reason I play though is because a bunch of my RL(real life) friends started together which just allows us all to keep in contact and have fun with one another. It has been fun though and we are now the #12 alliance on the server. Hope you enjoy it!! Oh and keep up the good work here at RPS. I love this site.

I’ll join up, but who are you ingame? It’s been a while since I’ve played so it should be fun getting back into it. I ended up stopping before because of the few neighbors who made it their point to let me grow to a decent size and then proceed to pound each of my buildings to rubble.

I went through a big Travian phase earlier this year and ended up in one of those alliance spirals. One guy called in his literal big brother, and a two front war developed, etc. It stopped being fun when I would have to send my troops on a long march to avoid them getting killed by the attack I knew was coming in 12 hours time.

Reminds me very much of “ogame” and other civ-sims out there only this one isn’t set in space, which is a nice change.

So what’s your username on this, I’ve set myself up a villag (as the game decides to call it) and am keen to start diplomatacising up the locals.

From my experience of Travian, all that happens is that you work your arse off and build your villages, join a nice alliance and then one day a bigger alliance comes along and says “Join us or be destroyed”, at which point you either join or be destroyed. Repeat until only two main alliances remain, and most people have either given up or lost their sanity.
