A new player will start with one choice, which civilisation to be. There are 3 options to this, Romans, Gauls or Teutons. Then the player must start to build their village by upgrading the buildings that make it grow. Resource fields are the places in which resources are made, they are wheat crop, iron mine, woodcutter and clay pits. Every player will need all of the resources to keep their village going and survive.
The other buildings needed include, warehouse (used to store resources), Market place (used for trading and buying resources) Barracks (used to build troops ready for battle) Cranny (used to hide resources in the event of a raid) Academy (used for upgrading or researching new troop types) and there are many more building that are vital for survival of the player’s village.

This gaul strategy guide is for active players who enjoy raiding, farming, dominating their area and reaching to the top of the rankings. Many successful players I’ve talked with are playing gauls like this.
After playing gauls quite a bit lately on many different servers I’ve started enjoying them more and more. Especially on a speed servers it’s a lot of fun raiding with their extremely fast raiding troops, the theutates thunders, TTs for short. Being able to reach anyone in your whole 21×21 in 20 minutes is simply quite awesome. I’ve also found it very easy to catch people with armies at home using the gaul’s fast TTs as your enemy don’t see you coming before it’s too late. On one of the servers I played I was overdoing it though, and killed like 2000 troops around me before even starting with infrastructure for city number 2. Not the best way to play, but a whole lot of fun. And sorry to all my victims, it was nothing personal.

I’ve started a couple of servers with gauls now, as it is the tribe I have played the least, and figure it would be a good idea to get some more experience with them before writing the guide. The guide will be fairly close to the one I wrote about romans. The big difference is that phalaxes are real bad at farming, they are defence troops after all. The gauls makes up for it with their TTs though, they are awesome both at farming and at killing clubs, and they are less expensive to get than the EIs. More to come!

In this travian combat strategy guide I will go through a couple of basic combat strategies everyone has to know to play travian well. The strategies and tecniques here will be used from day one and throughout the whole game.
Dodging
I guess this is the most important one to know, and I guess pretty much everyone who’s reading this know what it is. Anyways though, it means sending your army out of your city when another player attacks to avoid a fight and avoid loosing troops. You will be doing this all the time, as you never want to defend your city with offense troops, so you always dodge unless you have defensive troops there with them or you’re certain it’s just a tiny attack that won’t hurt your offense force at all.

If you want to be successfull and become one of the biggest and most powerfull players in Travian you have to start out farming. I’m sure you already know what that is, but anyways, it means attacking your neighbours for resources. It doesn’t matter whether you’re playing teuton, roman or gaul, they all grow fastest with farming their neighbours. I’ve seen in a lot of of guides where the writer claims the best way to play roman or is to start out slowly building your resource fields and then cranny up, but that’s just plain wrong. With farming you’ll get a good portion of resources from tens to hundreds of villages instead of just one, can’t argue with that. Teutons are more suited for farming from the very start, but all tribes can do it and should do so from the start.
