Ok =) Hope to see you on the game soon.

Ok I want to get ready for when we can make a faction that we are well prepared to go and make one.

Ok so when someone reaches rank 14/Page they can create a faction.

It would be better if we could create our faction straight away.
What should our faction be called?
What colours should the Faction's flag have?
What should be the Faction's short name?
What should be the faction's motto?

Anyone on Gothic Wars can suggest what our faction should have =)

Not a clue. we will come to it when we get there.

[dx144]

Fair enough =)

Is this one of those games where you can attack someone at any time of the day in real life and they have to be on to move troops to counter you? Basicly you have to be on 24 hours a day not to get screwed over.

Yh lol

[Master Romulous]

Yh...?

[dx144]

No you can get a Religious power as the UK in the medieval age was mostly Christian and I can't remember its name but it can protection you with a single use for 8hrs but can be stacked if more monks are used but you cannot research that for a time.....
Troops have travel time so you have some time to get ready for an attack.
But in a way yes you need to be on a lot if you want to stop attacks and what not.

Hmm, I'll join World 4 as soon as they send me my damn verification email Dx

[Fallen Angels95]

Master Rom, I was agreeing with you

[dx144]

Ok then. =)
I think within the next two days I will have trade ready.
Is taking longer than before with getting a Liege Lord usually people see an active player who is doing stuff (Scouting, building or donating to a parish so they assume that they will around to stay.) and they will want a stable place to put 500 troops.

Right Im level 6 at the moment. If any one needs resources Ive got loads. Im going to start building up my army.

[dx144]

Focus on defences first. Even though you have protection from player attacks AI siege camps can still attack and if you lose take away honour that is vital for ranking up.
Don't get peasants..... They are meatshield that no uses because Pikeman or Swordsmen completely destroy them, they cannot get close to archers without taking heavy casualties and they are only ever used on raids (Raids are attacks where they if an enemy's forces are in your area for too long they can steal supplies ranging from ALE!, weapons, food, general building supplies like Wood, stone, iron and pitch.
Archers are the best for defence.

For research focus on Stone Quarrying, Woodcutting, Apple picking as this will help keep your village with a good supply of wood stone and food so that the villagers are happy and you can continue to build up your village.

I played a game of the exact same type and conquered the server, but.... i had to dedicate every hour of my life to it. What we used to do was pair 1 brit, 1 american and 1 aussie all on the same account so the account was active 24/7. It came that most top players did that thus the game would consume your life if your account didnt have 3 players on it from different time zones covering all hours of the day. I really want to play the game but not getting involved with that type of game again lol.

[MetalHead666X]

Like Dx Said i dont think were going to be to serious about it.

[dx144]

I hope that people on this world are not going to attack a neutral faction because they can. I have been reading through Scotland's Forums and it seems that if someone does invade a parish to become a flag farm (Flags allow parishes to build new buildings. They are gathered over time by parishes but stealing them gets more faster.) House 9 seem to not like it when someone or a group bullies someone because they have something. I have been in communication with my Parish Steward and I have asked if they know of anyone who needs a Liege Lord so that they can get troops and I get some soldiers to defend my castle =P

Scouting is quite a good thing to get. Because if you get to a resource stash first you get 520 honour at a low level that can allow you to go up about 3 or 2 ranks which is about 6 Research Points.

I ain't going to force you to play this non stop. I did play this a lot last year.
We were in a war for Scotland and I was mainly on the Western Isles. After about a few months I had three well stocked villages all with armies capable of destroying AI castles and I was in control of 2 parishes. Our enemy House 2 invaded and came across. They used a power that made them unable to attacked for 1month...... That for me sucked the fun out of the game. It was a war which that whoever had more faith points won. Because their is a power which stops people from using religious powers (Excommunicate) But you can get rid of that with a religious power from another village called Absolution. So with this I spent about a week on non stop trying to get in a single attack and as soon as I was ready another week of Interdiction was put on to village and another two weeks of that being unable to attack my enemies just made me feel that the game was just boring with Faith Points. I understand protecting your village while you sleep go off for the weekend or something like that but for a week or a month just seems to me a pointless thing to do.

I did play Tribal Wars and on that people were dicks. I asked them why are you attacking me and they simply reply with you are neutral so it doesn't matter.... That is why people don't like games where you can farm other players as it just ruins the fun for everyone else.

If you have experience on other similar games should be transferable skills which can help you out in the start.
I think new players get tutorial so they get extra resources from that but I have cards left over from World one and a load of card points to get new cards =)

If you want to join I hope to see you there. We are in World 4 it is a US/UK server.

[MetalHead666X]

If scouting gives you honour that will really help me.

[dx144]

Only if you scout resource stashes that haven't been discovered yet like this

If you get to them first you get honour and they have to be in your area of influence that is also another reason why people want vassals so that they can spread their area of influence. =)
