Fully agree on attack & defense for romans, i disagree on the EIs vs TTs thou. Turning those EIs into late game hammer (if you are not catched by anyone by that point) is one of the best plays for romans imo, For the Difficulty, unless you are a complete noob at travian, Playing romans is easy, Walling up + cranny, spamming legions is the best way to survive to late game where you can have your empire running. Anyways, Great Vid! keep it up.
As a roman player I agree don't play roman unless you're a dedicated scout and extremely active. Troops are extremely expensive, you feel every lost troop. If you want to be a hammer player as a roman good luck, it's going to take a lot of time, dedication and if you're a raider you can't afford to be spiked. Your only job as a roman hammer is to knock down the WW, and use those buff chiefs to take villas. Otherwise as a roman anvil your job again is going to be WW defense or artifact defense, the prats are pound for pound best infantry defenders but they are expensive and slow, so make sure you have ample friendly defenders to help keep those prats alive or else it's just a waste. Roman scouts are just the best, there's no arguing that.
Romans are a lategame tribe, they have the best units lategame, as it isn't a question of resources anymore, but power per upkeep, which romans have the best of both in defense and offense.
Just because troops are more "powerful" doesn't make them better. Because you can train more units in the same amount of time period than romans. All in all, Romans are in a very difficult spot right now and need a bonus to bring them up to speed.
@@CarbonTravian if i use the calculator correctly with lvl 20 horse drinking through, the output for roman with EC is second best in attk points, just after teutons, so i dont know whether you or i do make a mistake in calculations.
I'm trying to choose between Teutons and Huns for raiding and looking at all the stats, unit costs and bonuses I almost feel like Teutons are better (20% cranny theft). Still, you've got me convinced with the Huns versatility and incredible units, but I'd love to hear more details on the topic.
Id go with teutons because the cranny bonus. If you raid someone as a teuton you always will have a advantage over all the other tribes if the defender has a cranny. The other tribes will always go back emptyhanded while you get 20% from the cranny :)
Disagree with quite a lot of it, some of the largest hammers I've seen were from Egyptians, in our last server our Egyptian WWK took down our main opponent's WW from level 68 to 0, guaranteeing us a win, in a single attack (decent Teuton WWR landed just before that). I would also say Gauls are #1 in raiding if you know what you're doing, just not very good at using the troops for something else that they're raiding with (TT). Gauls also have the fastest 2nd village time, so don't see how its the worst in growth. Teutons are good at building 20 hammers in different villages, splashing their hammers and rebuilding quickly, not as good at WWK (slow troops for raids, and not as good as huns for oasis animal farming)
Regarding Huns I see a lot of people prefer training Marksman over Steppe .. I saw on Reddit someone calling Steppe and Murader a “noob trap” What do you think?
Yes gauls r perfect for offensiive, u have crany and traps for early game, when u go attack and raid with sword man and tt its over for them early game
This video is a mislead for creating more farm villages XD. How can u consider ranking rome's deffence as 5 and teuton as 4 (they have the cheapest end game deff after egypt) meanwhile u rank huns as 2 in deffence .
@@CarbonTravian probably hun is 5th, teuton 4th, gaul 3rd ,rome 2nd ,egypt 1st .

Thank you for the video! I was thinking of trying Travian now as an adult atleast once, but as it seems it it's changed quite a bit😅 I really need to think do I want to play as an Eqyptian or as a Hun or in a 3 tribe server?
I realy want to know why gauls is better in attack the romans? Or raiding why is tt bether then Imperial. Or gaul ww of is bether then roman. Or why is hunic hammer stronger then roman ww hamer with 22-25k catapults. I think you don t play to much late game travian.
TT is faster than EIs, and also cheaper, meaning you get them much earlier than romans. Gaul WWK not that good compared to roman. Huns troops are cheaper, and also training time less than roman troops... with Bow/Marauder you easily have a hammer slightly worse than teuton Club/tk. you can check in kirilloid website the numbers.
It can be! Because marksmans on horses are cheap and fast With marksman hero you can deff anyone in right time and your deff is like 104/94 And take only 2 crop Brutal unit! Ofcourse you can attack with theme also with 134 strenght and with speed 18 squares pre hour with your hero
@@Misanthrope-Philanthropeeee Egyptian slaves are the cheapest defense. The marksmans are not that cheap and have a lousy defense. It requires large amounts to be able to defend. It is the worst defensive cavalry by far. Druids and Osiris guardians have much better defense and are fast. The germans with the spearmen and paladins make a good defense too. Not to mention the wall. That his defense is the worst and he is knocked down easily.
@@OccasusRaven No real reason I guess. They’ve tried to nerf other tribes like Hun and Egypt while developing the Spartans who play very similarly. Unfortunately they’re still a while away from the other tribes.
this dude has no fucking ideea LoL,i play this game since 2007,teutons are the best because its biased german game... but the most gold consumers,romans are second expensive but very powerful,if you like deff style then egypt and gauls huns are the worst they have no deff and expensive as fuck

Either are great in my opinion. With the changes to new servers having a raiding limit of 20,000, the favour stays with Hun.

Regarding Huns
I see a lot of people prefer training Marksman over Steppe .. I saw on Reddit someone calling Steppe and Murader a “noob trap”
What do you think?
There's certainly a preference involved. Most huns build rainbow and use it to hit oasis. But overall Steppe is the best shout
@@CarbonTravian I tried to join your discord.. but for some reason it’s not working
Marksman over steppe everytime
i loved playing teutons but i have the feeling that huns have taken over haha
Yes gauls r perfect for offensiive, u have crany and traps for early game, when u go attack and raid with sword man and tt its over for them early game
What about romans hero? big advantage at the start for attacking oasis and taking down armys just sending him alone.
Doesn't impact the game enough.
I love playing roman with the EIs
Only way to play them 💪
Hey im just starting with Egyptians and going full defense. My questions is what the best defense combo regarding cavalry and troops.
?
Ash Warden + Chariots.
Thoughts on Spartans? Would love to see a new video on it.
Probably above Romans but Lower than Gauls. Let’s see how they perform on their first servers
@@CarbonTravian they're broken af

3 Tribe is probably the best place to start. 5 Tribe is a totally different game as the 2 newer tribes out perform the other 3
Huns are the worst in defense because they have paper wall which leads to so many huns being destroyed first :)
Hi carbon, u should make a new video about this with all tribes chears 🙋🏻♂️
Hey man, only recent change is Spartans and overall they’re placed similarly to Gauls

Not always, however you have to play smart. Something that can be difficult if you don't have much time on your hands
Isn't the point of huns to troll and ghost hammers 24/7
Huns are probably the most versatile tribe to play. Ghosting is definitely a strong aspect.
Romans so bad
Espesially after huns/egyptians released
