Someone run me through the scenario of why you are looking for a 9+ cropper and what your plan of action is once you plant your settlers there.

Thanks.  smile

You only need 9 croppers in the end game to support huge armies.  At this stage I think any 6 cropper is sufficient unless you have truly Squig sized opinions of your own self importance wink

Re: Travian second village

A 15 cropper is certainly more end game.  However, if you aren't threatened much, a 9 cropper as a second/third village isn't a bad idea if you need a lot of troops (Teutons especially.)

That said, as a Roman, I had 2 normal villages and 1 clay, 1 iron, and 1 wood village before I settled my 15 cropper.  The village literally needs to import 95% of the resources it uses.

My second village is a 9 crop.  I belive it a good move because I have to feed tons of clubswingers and my first village is almost at capacity with all fields level 8 or 9.

How do you find a 9 - 15 cropper?

Re: Travian second village

I have grease monkey and travian3 beyone (thanks to squig opening his mouth about them).  These show you the type of field by hovering your mouse over them.
After that I just go one by one hovering my mouse over an area I am interested in.

Re: Travian second village

Right now my original village is mostly 8s with a few 7s.  My 9-cropper has mostly 7s except for crops which are 5s.  I intend to start another village in a week or so, probably a clay square.

If I had my way, my second village would have been clay and my third would have been the 9-crop.  However, I rushed to expand since there were 2 9 croppers adjacent to my square and I didn't want hostiles being that close.

Re: Travian second village

So, other than building a wall, crannies, and perhaps a palace, you'd basically use the 9/15-cropper to generate resources?

Re: Travian second village

you use it to feed your people.  Make the troops and send them there, or just make them there.
