    Evony.

    kind of addictive if you ask me.

    and if anyone wants to check it out, specify server 112 and state of Tuscany
    sign up for the free membership, THERE IS NOTHING TO DOWNLOAD OR INSTALL, login, but close browser tab / window right away, login again and select to choose a server, pick server 112, click play now button. you will be able to chose the State during the game loading sequence, pick Tuscany. ]

    get the embassy built.
    [ build cottage, uplevel it to 2, uplevel town hall to 2, build one each resource collection facility { city tab on game screen } build embassy.

    Send me mail in game [ my name is the same as here. 🙂 ] when you start, and I can send an invitation so when the embassy is built, it’s there and you only have to accept it to be in the Alliance.

    [ change flag quest, pick Maxx 😉 ]
    I have set up on there now, and started an alliance for TR members, called TR.

    CHANGE:
    alliance TR will be merging with Alliance Max2 friday, mail Jaqui2 for an invitation to the Max2 alliance.

    the alliances are good things, gives you stuff that helps with the game.

    and I’ve had the luck to chat with some players who have been on evony since they were only beta testing it. learned lots of tips, that can be shared in r/t chat in the alliance.
    [ little tip, don’t chat in world channel other than for the quest ]

    Alliance name, because of limitations in the game: TR

      Though the ads for the game dissuaded me from trying it myself earlier, I might give it a try since you recommended it.

        of course,

        by jaqui ·

        In reply to Am I allowed to enter this game of yours?

        other than the daily reset / bugfix and flash ui, it’s a well done app.

        and the evony staff were really upset at some of the adds the players put out.
        they asked the players to advertise, but didn’t expect the method and ad content.

        it will take me about another hour to have the alliance set up for TR members, and not sure what name restrictions will make me use for it.

        In reply to Not my thing, but

        I just figured, why not put it out for everyone, since it has real time chat in it and we could easily have 100 members who like real time strategy games.

        In reply to Very slow,

        it’s where the alliance chat comes in handy.
        chatting with friends helps pass the time.

        and evonypedia.com’s quick start isn’t bad reading.

        though they neglect little things, like only build 8 cottages. 1 warehouse.
        one of most is all that is allowed.
        12 barracks is another good thing.

          that’s one of the problems with the flash ui of it.
          sometimes it fails to load properly, you just have to reload the page until it does.

          give up after 3 attempts. I’ll try it again on this System. I have to go to a job this morning, Virus removal, otherwise I would be in the shed on the System that I set up on.

          it can sometimes be a problem.
          I know someone else from Aus that had to struggle for 10 hours to get logged in one time.

          he was stressing, his 50k cavalry, 100k archers, 100k scouts were going to eat all the food and start rioting on him.

          I have no problems logging on on the System that I used to set it up, but I still get a blank screen on this System. I’ll have to wait until later. My lumber might have increased by then and I can get my level 5.

        • #3017593

          level 5 what?

          by jaqui ·

          In reply to I know

          do not level 5 town hall if you still have beginners protection!!!

          and when you login, apply to join the alliance TR

        before I can accept the invitation. Don’t mind me as I haven’t played these type games before, I have watched the kids though.

        At the moment I have 5 sawmills, 3 farms and 1 each of the Quarries and Ironmines. 9 Cottages a Warehouse and a Marketplace.

      In reply to web based rts game -updated -edited

      I just have to ask – where do you specify the server? I do see where you can select the alliance.

      If I have some time in near future, I’ll screw around with this.

      • #3017652

        the server?

        by jaqui ·

        In reply to Amusing.

        after you login, before you click the play now button, there should be a button just above it with login another server on it.

        • #3017649

          Aha!

          by seanferd ·

          In reply to the server?

          I’d not been through that procedure yet. I registered, but never logged out and back in.
          :p

          lol

          by jaqui ·

          In reply to Aha!

          if you are on server 112, apply for alliance TR membership

          or send in game mail to me. “Jaqui” minus the quotes. 😉
          I’ll end an invite for the alliance

        • #3017631

          Even better still

          by seanferd ·

          In reply to lol

          I couldn’t find the play button! :p
          I always went straight to the game upon login. ?:|
          So, I figured I’d check the link I’d made. (@)
          Turns out, each server is a subdomain, and my link was created after registration, putting said subdomain into the URL. C=
          Also turns out, I happened to be at 112.evony.com. v/

          Cha-ching.

          So, I’ll send an app to TR alliance when I get back to the game. My city is simmering at the moment, so I should have more resources when I check back.

          Cheers!

          you can’t expect a game to be 100% realistic, when it’s flash based and run across the internet.

          the land looks good for farms, but that’s about all it looks good for. 😀

      a bit boring, being the only active member on Evony today.

      already gotten over 5 times the prestige of any other member.

      and climbing fairly quickly.

      prestige, gets you higher ranking, and keeps the other players from attacking you.
      and gets other alliances wanting to be friendly, unless they are the ‘destroy them all’ type.

        I like Evony and would have loved to keep with my original persona. Medical emergency kinda toasted that but I think I learned new things.

        Come in and play. You’ll be with folks you know and love. “We Are Family”!!!!!
