Guide For Grow Your First city

One of the most important things when starting a new world and rising to the top, is of course to start well. This mini-guide will give you a (very) detailed step-by-step plan in helping you to get the fastest start that you can possibly manage. The aim of this guide is to keep your resources well balanced so you can grow the fastest as well as at the same time building up your troops ready for a conflict. By the end of this guide you should be laying siege/revolting your second city with 300 slingers, 75 hoplites, 150 horsemen, 42 transports and 30 light ships. However there are a couple of extra things which I now need to make clear;

1. For this guide to be successful you need to be constantly farming, by this I mean both the farming villages on your island and other players in your surrounding area. The maximum resource input from farming villages per day is if you do 5 minute demands for 17 hours, obviously this is very taxing but if you can manage it then your growth will be speed up enormously. One final tip is that 5 minutes before your final 5 minute demand for the day use the 4/8 hour (depending on whether you have booty) demand in order to get more the maximum resources. Remember the more you farm the better youll do; Success is dependent on effort Sophocles.

2. This guide does not take into account the level of the farm, you will need to level up the farm as you grow and expand your army. Try to keep an eye on how much free population you have left and level up your farm when it gets to around 30.

3. This guide also does not take into account your attacks on other players and the losses you might sustain. If you do lose units then re-recruit them, re-balance your resources using the market place and carry on from the guide where you left off.

4. There is a bit of luck involved in the game and I would be astounded if you got all the farming villages that I tell you to preferably get in this guide, the most important thing would be to get one silver --> rock and two silver --> wood.

5. Good luck! Enjoy playing the game.
