A lot of you will have seen the ads if you're not playing it already. It's based of Age of Empires and is imo quite a good stoners game. Unlike the Pirate adventure you can play this one without spending a penny. Which is good considering how much I spent on my last online game. Anyway, if there's already a uk420 group on there send me an invite and if you've not seen it yet have a look.




e2a: sorry Church, should have stuck this in the Gaming section.

I'll chaeck it out man, I love these kind of games - build a granary, collect some fish, construct a little road etc.
Most computer games move far too fast for my stoners brain..

I've been playing Civilisation on PS3 recently and It's pretty good. Last night I developed the Manhattan project in 1778, and Nuked Napoleons Arse.







Sad as fuck, I know..

I'm well into it andy. You can sit and build little bits or let it build itself while you toke and watch. And the extra special bit, for me anyway, is that you can play it without spending. If you want to spend you can, but you don't have to. So my credit card isn't hiding in fear this time.

I'll have a look at that tomorrow, was always a fan of the AoE games

I'm on right now. This is going to kill my time management!

so should I build cottages or go on a quest?. I can't message there atm.

I'm getting it now. building my village. Apparently there is a 7 day grace period where no one attacks you.

I built two cottages and got 10 seconds into building a warehouse before I realised I had no fucking idea what I was doing. I am crap at this sort of stuff.

I got banned from Travian for starting a shit fest so I think I will stay away

Nothing like Travian Hugh, I tried that one and hated it. If you want to rant there's a chat channel open on the game page in Evony and no one gives a feck what you type as long as you keep it clean.

I started by building five cottages and upgrading them alongside your lumber, stone, food, and iron works. Fill your walls with as many defences as you can to keep the attackers away and start building your army.

What fun! I've got farms, wood mills and a quarry atm. Loads of cottages. I'm starting to feel like a frickin politician.

Got an invite code? I would love to buy some wood working tools. I need a shop and to build my wall.

btw, if you look for me or my city name, it wouldn't be hard to misss.

how do you look for you or your city name randalizer ?

Hvy, had you played the AoE games before ?

I'm gonna sign up tomorrow (pit too pissed now). Is the resource gathering and technology tree the same (or similar) ? Does gaining technology work the same way ? (getting a resource collection building and spending resources upgrading it).

Sorry, possibly a bit anal about it, I just like to know what I'm going for from the off. I'm a terrible online game player, cos I don't play for fun, I play to win

Got me, I'm very new to this sort of gaming My name isn't hard to figure out. and my city name... well .... if you have read my diaries you can figure it out.



not played those games before Boojum, but resource gathering is the name of the game. You have a 7 day grace period before someone can attack you. I'm hoping for an alliance by then. Need to build a Embassy first tho.

The trick to the game is to follow the quests. Pushing tabs reveals things and there is a (lousy) guide and a nice fag section. It's in Beta Phase atm.

hi folks,

Does anyone know how best to develop resources to grow fast and strong in a game like this?

Boojum, could you be bothered to explain what AOE means?

Age Of Empire. And yes that is what this game is like. Fun, free, a bit slow but if you think hard enough you can get a decent pace going. Most important thing for that is to set up your resources well.

ack! I just had a riot in my city. seems like I was trying to advance everyone along to quickly!

Sounds like you're getting into it Randal. You have to keep your people happy, 17% tax and don't use the levies until your loyalty has topped up. Mine's usually on 83/0. I'm Waylander again, city is Spamalot. I've not joined an alliance, we can set a uk420 alliance up once there's a few players. Don't know how we go about getting everyone on the same server yet, I'm on 20.

Erm I've just found out I can set my link to Evony so everyone who uses it comes onto the same server. Everyone joining from now will be on server 20, we'll have to find out how to get Randal and any others moved if they wish.

I'm just building an inn, struggling with the resources to get a farm upto level 5

nice find hvy

Cheers qnq. Following the Quests will get you up and running. You just have to decide which order you want to do them in. Try to keep building wall defences while you're doing other things.

Daft question but is the game silent or are there sounds and my pooter just isn't playing them ?

I made the mistake of upgrading my town hall too early, now I'm just waiting cos I don't wanna waste any of my beginners guidelines, cos they speed up 15 minutes but the town hall upgrade isn't nearly that, it's just over the 5 minute free speed up limit

394 prestige after 45 minutes, is that any good ?

No idea Boo. I've been on two weeks and I'm on 19,540. Not really attacked anyone yet, still building up the army.

I'm liking this, my kinda game, nice and chilled And I do have a thing about base building kinda games with technology research & stuff I can see me spending a lot of time on this

I don't think you can make alliances before the 5 day not getting attacked period is over, but once 5 days is over I'll give you a clue what my name is it begins with B

Doesn't end in .. oojum does it?

It's a great game as long as you're not in a hurry. I'll set a research going or a list of defences/soldiers to be built or a building upgrading, and let it run in the background while I'm on other sites.

any tips ?

ends in .....ooj now, I started again cos I fucked up the first time not following the quests and not building one of each resource gathering thing before starting on the town hall

So muller Boojum when you can, there's an undeveloped city with no defences there

I'm now Booj, and it's looking better already

bein playing all day, joined the eternals till we get a 420 clan,
0n server 25, will come over to 20 as soon as i can.
got 5972 prestige so far.
just bein informed that server 25 is the newest ans so the easiest to start on

we need to get a 420 alliance happening when everybody is sorted

I'm on server 25 and things are going nicely. I already have my sights on a few villages near me.

Prestige is @ 2453 and I'm a lieutenant after 18 hours.

I certainly want a UK420 alliance. Hvy I've got an embassey. Can we not play over multiple servers?

I'm getting ready to build a wall so I can upgrade my town hall. I need more fields!!!

added you to my friends on evony rand

hey, hey, hey. jumped in and totally wet.
gen

Hi all I have an application pending to join the uk420 clan. Username is sbp.

I've created a uk420 alliance. PM your Evony name to me here and I'll invite you.

So I've got a HUGE amount of territory that i can conquer. A lot of derilict cities. There is only one city near me that I am concerned about.

sbp and hvy, send me your coordinates so I can add you to my friends list.

Lets show these gamers what organised stoners can do!!!

So my town hall is now going to level 4. Should take about 2 hours to construct. Busy little guys!

Can we get a listing here, from those that want to form an alliance anyway, of what state they are in? I'm in the state of Moravia.

Thuringia

So then, are there multiple states within a server or is it a one for one (each server is named a state?)?

And can we have multiple alliances over many servers?

I've currently got 5 minutes left to wait to upgrade my feasting hall to level 2, plus I'm waiting on 27000 units of stone to build level 3 walls, should be delivered in 20 minutes.

so I want to invite folks over to my server. There is a TON of available territory around me to be conquered.

I'm happy on server 20

There's only a couple of people not on 20 Randal.

how do you get a quarry and ironmine ?

Click 'City' and build them.

go to city, click on an open field, choose quarry or iron mine

apparently logging out allows you to choose a server and a new village. How do you log out?

right ive just started a new town on server 20

just close the browser!

I'm on 25 too, cant find you

Hey Rand when you log out and choose a different server do you get to keep your city etc

I think so. You keep your old village/city on the old server and then start a new one on the new server. Hvy knows more than I on this.

I now have an alliance on 25. UK420 of course. When I get a chance I'll start a new city on server 20.
