Find this game rather boring because after you move a tank you need to wait for like 16 hours to reach its destiny, everything just takes too long for me as i prefer a game that doesn't last more than a month

Bruh?! , Erich von Ludendorff Travian, an online Roman-era war game that really require totally no RL, and constantly getting online many times each day, an army with catapults and a huge 500k soldiers (usually called a "hammer") can take 24-72 hours to hit someone's town, or even longer depending on location. It may seems a bit too much, but you usually need to contact your allies to help you defending which may take some time for people to log on like 8 hours later, then finally send their armies which need 6 hours to travel to your town. Loads of fun, but I am officially retired from Travian many years ago. Looks like I might not play this game. |

It's incredibly difficult to do well in it. Point is, I am not planning on playing this one anyhow. Maybe a little dabbling to get my feet wet then abandon the game, so at least I can say I had a taste of it. |

Been a few days and we are all taking the NPCs. As safe as it is being on the other side of the atlantic its gonna be hard for me to get to Europe.
I am hoping my relative experience will give me a advantage to overcome that.
I am pretty sure one of the key rules of warfare is when you are attacking is to have more troops than the enemy. I can see a friend attacking 1 infantry using 1 infantry and the news clearly show their heavy losses.
The NPCs are still gonna fall because they will keep sending infantry but they are gonna take horrible causalities in doing so.
I have the 2nd least losses and the first is not attacking any NPCs

Yes I am fighting war against Canada and Cuba. I already had land on the other side of the atlantic by taking French North Africa. They were busy as they were attacked by Spain and Italy so I met no resistance. Right now I am putting a heavy focus on improving my production since I have no need for fortifications. |

I decided to jump into my very first game and it's a weird scenario whwre apparently USA and Russia is spilt into evenly sized pieces. North and South USA has 22 spaces each (So does Canada which is me), and Michigan somehow is independent and has only 4 spaces as a nation. Russia... totally spilt into like 6 different factions of 22 spaces each. One is the commies, another is Russian Empire (eh what?) Then there's Ukraine and even Crimea (lol), etc... Anyway, I think I am going to do okay long as the northern USA doesn't suddenly attack me. I don't have good range of sight outside my borders. |
