I forgot to mention that yesterdays post was in cooperation with blog.travian.com. Thanks to Martina Toso for making the map video!
So, lets see what we have from International. I asked this weekend if it was possible to join a Ghetto chat. It is for us unknown players in Tournament and they have been a welcome change in a sometimes too predictable game.
To be fair, they are not alone. I think International have been fortunate this year with well balanced participants of alliances from servers around the world.
Anyway, I got an invite to a team chat in Ghetto. It always a pleasure to meet new players 🙂
The most marvellous I found out about them is that they didn’t know each other before start and that they haven’t played Tournament before. It was Miko, Tuomiopäivä, that recruited them when the Balkan meta in NE broke apart. They are international with players from many countries.
It’s rare to find an ally that isn’t preplanned and furthermore do quite well in Tournament.
They told me a story about when they spiked a farm in the beginning of the server, it was week 3-4. Badboy, Turks, lost 500 tks in a single raid. He thought only a hero or some small reins spiked him and sent all his tks but it was near 10K def in that village.
We had a talk about their WW on which they late laid their hand , but it was planned they said. They wanted more villages in WW area first. There was also some talks about the best amount of Great Warehouse in WW, and which artefacts to use and when but since that must be seen as internal business I can’t reveal anything about it ^^
I asked Stardust (it was only guys in the chat) who was from Italy why he had decided to start on TT. He said that he was no 1 on com5 for too long and got bored. He wanted something more exciting to do.
Stardust said that he plays on com servers because because he don’t like the Italian servers. It’s only 2 big blocks and it never changes, Uollas and ita that fights each other. Those two that now play together on Germany qual, the rumor says that they will play with Dacia in Final.
I was told that next offensive was two of Vietnams WWs, together with IKEA, and next day I could follow as the hammers went away – and VN response to try to chief or croplock attackers villages.
The operation was a success, Vietnam hadn’t activated their Unique Architect and when they did it was 1h too late for the attacks.
